Trouble With the Indians in Manitoba
yellow Calf's Band Troublesome.

WINNEPEG, Feb. %.
The rumor of fight between the police and
Indians at Crooked Lake, grew out of the
fact that early Saturday morning twenty po-
licemen, under Col. Herchermer, started for
the cabins of the Indians, thirteen miles
north of Quappelle river, where Yellow
Calls band of 75 braves were holding sway.
When within two rods of their stronghold,
the Indians came swarming and fourishing
their guns and refused to allow the police to
approach nearer. Col. Herchermer remon-
strated with the chief but Yellow Calf de-
cliaed to give up any of his men or provis-
ions, which they had stolen. He said he
never would surrender without struggle.
The policemen were then formed into line,
but the last man had not taken his position
before the windows and doors of the cabin
were thrown open and the openings fairly
filled with rifles. Owing to the great odds
and the fact that the Indians were under
cover, Col. Herchermer withdrew to farm
house in the vicinity for the night and re-
turned to Broadview yesterday, The people
of that place are considerably excited and an
gneasy feeling prevails.

is that Mr.. Sargent does not regard his posi-
