The Pine Ridge Agency.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 12. Acting Secretary
of the Interior Joslyn, has a letter from In
spector Pollock, who is investigating the con-
dition of affairs at the Pine Ridge, Dak.,
Indian Agency. The Inspector says: 'This
agency has already been inspected twice by
my illustrious compeers, and yet the same
dissatisfaction among the Indians, and
charges against the agent are rife. More
over, reports have been circulated that both
inspectors who preceded me we're bought
up to whitewash agents. Things have gone
from bad to worse, until the prospect of
grim visaged war has paralyzed the country
with fear. Cheap running of the quarter
masters department is beginning to move
the Indians, our uncffending justice-loving
white citizens sitting on the hill-tops watch
ing till the opportunity occurs to secure
ranches, on this solemnly guaranteed
reservation. This is the largest, and the
most difficult agency in the United States to
manage. In addition to the many questions
relating to the management of its business
proper, there is also her great political con-
test, of which the agent and Red Cloud are
the principal actors, and which will cause
bloodshed unless settled soon. hope to
eHectually settle the trouble, but much time
and great labor are required to fully under
stand and inteligently report upon the man
agement and the difficulties surrounding this
agency.

Egyptians lost 1900 killed, and the British
200 killed and wounded. At first the fire of

with gallantry. Nothing could surpass their
cheer, which resembled wild yell, and could
be heard above the din of musketry, as they
charged up the steep slope of the trenches.
The Egyptians were terror-stricken. Many
hid in the corners of the works, throwing
everything from them. Our work, however,
was not vet ended. A large inner redoubt,
on the Arabs left, we'll manned and armed,
still remained intact. But the British troops

Big :'Hoss'' Trot in Boston.

Boston. Sept. 14.-The Blanchard $4,000
race for horses in the 2:17 class at Beacon
Park, which has been looked forward to with
great interest, took place this afternoon.
The track was in fair shape. From IL
o'clock to the middle of the afternoon the
thoroughfares leading to the park were lined
with conyeyances filled with people, while
special trains brought large numbers. Fully
$4,000 people were on the grounds and the
most lively scene was presented. Delega-
tions were present from all parts of the coun-
try. Before the race the betting was even on
Edwin Ihorne and Clingstone, Thorne being
slight favorlte, with Santa Claus third
choice. The judges were W. II. Wilson, of
Kentucky, G. II. Keeler and B. S. Kicker,
Boston. Keeler also acted as starter, The
horses were called at promptly, but did not
appear until 2:30, when they drew
positions as follows: Fanny Witherspoon,
first; Santa Claus, second; Clingstone, third;
Parana, fourth; Edwin Thorne, fifth; Helena,
sixth; Humbolt, seventh. All the horses ap-
peared in good condition except Santa Claus.
He was quite lame, but nevertheless he trot-
ted throughout the race.
In the first race much time was lost in
starting. Fifteen times the horses came to
the wire and were as many times sent back.
On the sixteenth attempt a fair start was
made, Parana slightly in the lead. Thorne
came to the front, with Parana, Helena, and
Clingstone following in the order named,
and thus they went to the half-mile flag.
Here Parana went back to fourth Helena came
up and from here to the home-stretch made
pretty race with Thorne. On home-stretch,
however, Thorne pulled away from the mare
and won in three lengths: Ciingstone, 3rd;
Fanny Witherspoon1 4th; Santa Claus, 5th;
Parana, 9Th: Humbolt last.
# Edwin Thorne now sold SO against 40 for
the field. In the second heat the horses were
sent off well together on the fifth scoring.
Again EdWid Thorne led after passing the
half mile. with Helena second, Clingstone,
third. Here Clingtone overlook Helena and
gained second position. The other horses,
except Parana and Humbolt gradually closed
up, and coming into the home stretch were
well punched. Helena and Santa Claus
here broke and fell back, but Thorne. Cling
stone and Fanny Witherspoon kept together
and trotted sp]endidly. Thorne, however,
had a slight advantage aud was close pressed
by Clingstone. This order awas maintained
