A dispatch from Lea.enwortll says the
report which originated in that city that
the Indians in the neighborhood of Fort
Reno, Indian territory, are threatening
an outbreak, is untrue. It is we'll known,
and has been for some time, that the
Cheyenne and Arrapahoe Indians have
been grumbling about short beet rations,
and that there has been some correspon.
dence between Agent Mills and Maj.
Randall, commanding at Fort Reno, in
regard to the matter. but there does not
seem to be any serious apprehensions
that an outbreak will occur. Gen. Pope
contemplates an early trip into the
Indian country. but it is not likely his
journey has any direct connection with
the reported condition of affairs at Reno.

A Chicago Times Washington special
says "the death of General Hurlbut will
put an end to the most interesting phase
Of the Peru-C Chill investigation. 1t was
through General Hurlbut that the stall
warts hoped to prove connection be-
tween MIR. Blaine and the Peruvian COM
pany. General Hurlbut was to confront
Shipherd and retort to the charges
against him. It is thought that the
exposures and worry involved in this
miserable business hsstened General
Hurlbut's death. On that account sym.
pathy is expressed for him, where none
was expected few days ago. Mr.. Blaine
is considered as outside of the investiga-
tion now that both Fitzpatrick and Hurl-
but are dead. 1t was expected that Mr..
Hurlbut would "go back" upon Mr..
Blaine when he arrived, because he would
not have borne alone all the odium heap
ed upon him. No ono now expects any
thing to come out of tie investigation.
Shipherd still continues sick, and he NAV
die. The atmosphere of gusno appears
to be fatal in its consequences"

Fire Departme ent-No. S's Bell.

People residing in the Eighth ward are in state of dismay at the dolorous and deplor- able tones of steamer No. 6's bell, which it has been found is badly cracked. A flaw in the tones was detected some time ago. and on being examined slight crack was discov- cred in the upper part or ''bulgs," and yes. terday the imperfect sound being very mo- ticeable it was examined and the crack or Assure was found to have become much en- larged-being about twenty inches in length. The trouble is caused, so it is conjectured, by the bell strokes following each other too fast, preventing the proper recoil of the metal' and if this is the case the other fire bells are in like danger of being partially disabled. A great number of inquiries are made at the engine house daily, and "What's the matter with the bell ?' is becoming about as fre- quent inquiry as the question ''How's lection coming out ?" question which is fast be- coming an interesting topic
