The NYurdcroUs Utes

Gibson. Topeka G. Santa Fe road. They
had ordered dinner at the Union depot hotel
but seeing so large a Gro Md of pale faces de.
stroyed Their appetites and they went ABOARD
the train at once and left without eating.
Between two and three thousand people
were at the depot TO see the savages,
"Hang the red devils, ," shootthe murder.
ing fends," and like expressions were fre'
duently heard from portions OF the crowd,
and they we're pelted with stone coal by
some boys who had taken position on a
coal train on q side track. The Indians
were mpletely horror stricken and cowed.
A move was afoot in the morning to organ
ize 500 men and lynch the savages but
cooler counsels prevailed and citizens deter
mined to let the Indians proceed without in
jury. Had there been any injudicious action
taken by the troops or Indians no power
could have restrained the mos from lynohing
them. Had Douglass or any of the Indians
engaged In numbering and outraging the
Meeker family been aboard no power could
have saved them. A Chieftain reporter
himself determined to protect the Indians
at all hazards should the mob attempt to
seize them. The troops will escort the In
dians to Lakin, on the east line of Colorado.
If the people of other parts of the State feel
as hostile as the Puesloites the Utes must
go in the Spring. The people here unani
mously indorse Belfords Indian policy.
