the gravity of which has been ex-
aggerated by previous reports, was
not of political character. -

LONDON, June GA Constantino-
pie dispatch says Palmer, bette
known in England and America
"War Hawk" has been arrested on
suspicion of being the chief conspi-
rator in plot, it is asserted, to as
sassinate the Sultan; that papers were
found in Palmer's possession prov
ing he had undertaken, in case of
war with Greece, to blow up the
Turkish feet, but this is probably
an invention, for some days ago
Palmer told several persons that he
was about to be arrested, and if he
had any papers of that kind he
would have destroyed them. The
affair is as yet rather mysterious.
LAKE CITY, Col, June TAT q
conference on Saturday last, at Los
Pinos agency, between the Ute COM
missioners and the head chief, Lapa-
vonora, and his sub-chiefs, Shovona,
Pish and Allah Shivino, the leading
sub-chief ex claimed loudly that there b.
never was a treaty made, neither
this one under consideration nor
any other, and he boldly demanded
to know who signed the treaty. He
was soon informed that every In
dian present had signed IL. The
chiefs were told they could select
five Utes to accompany the COM
missioners to the new reservation,
and should they decline to do SO,
the commissioners would proceed
without them, locate their reserva-
ton and remove the agency there.
Five Utes, including the head chief,
Lapavonora, have been selected by
| Agent Berry, and ordered to
report 10 the agency on Wednes-
day next. Shovona was very bold
in his talk, and claimed that he
and Chipeta. Ouray's widow, owned
the unoccupied valley. The chiefs
were given to understand that steps
would be taken to successfully ac-
complish the mission of the commas
sioners. The presence of military
kept the Utes in submission, and Il
was very clear that had reinforce
ments been absent the Utes would
have refused to go into the new re-
servation. Agent Berry's influence
with them prevented more exciting
scenes on Saturday, and they yielded
gracefully after manner to the in
eyitable. Everything is qniet now,
and very few Indians are lowering
about. They may return for an
other pow-wow, but it will be re-
| fused. The Ute Indian commits
sioners have been here nearly two
weeks. No orders for an escort
have yet boen received from Wash
ington, and valuable time lie passing
away while awaiting spch orders.
