BATTLEFoRD, May PA s o'clock
this morning a wagon train of sixty-seven
vehicles arrived with the half-breeds who
corraled themselves just west of the bar
racks, and laid down their arms. The
party numbered $50 all told. The arms
consisted offour rifles and seventeen guns.
At IL O'Clock an Indian rider in full wal
paint dashed in, saying that Poundmaker
would arrive within an hour to surrender
will all his ~counsellors. Promptly on
time Poundmaker arrived with the cap
tured wagon train. A big pow WOW was
then had and lasted three hours. Pound
maker blamed Riel for melting the In
dams to rise and said he came in to tell
the general to kill him 50 as 10 save his
people. Several chiefs followed, all
blaming Riel for misleading them.
A scene occurred during the pow WOW,
when Gen. Middleton asked who killed
fremont and Payne. Il brave arose from
the circle and kneeled at Gen. Middleton $
feet, saying the great white chief could
cut him in pieces, it was he who killed
Payne. He did not want all punished for
his crime. Kneeling, the Indian declared
he killed Payne in self defense. A grand
son of the same Indian rose and confessed
to numbering in cold blood Barney Ire
mont, while the latter was greasing a
wagon. The murderers were taken into
custody. Gen. Middleton then said the
government would detain Poundmaker,
Lean Man, Breaking Ice and Yellow
Mud, but told the others to 90 back to
their reservations for the present, and if
they conducted themselves properly they
would get ntions. The braves departed
happy.

06l members in the churches, under the
charge of missionaries. The total receipts

debt at the beginning of the year was $54,
$50, making the entire deficit S117. 997.

TRENToN'S NEW DEPOT.

The plan of building a new passenger
station in Trenton by the Pennsylvania
Railroad Company, has again been
changed. 1t is now contemplated to i'm
prove the present Clinton street station
instead of building new one. Presi-
dent Roberts, of the Pennsylvania Rail-
road Company, was in Trenton a short
time ago, and made thorough examina-
tion of the Clinton street station. The
result of his examination was an empha-
tic declaration that he would not consent
to the demolition of the present structure,
which, he said, was one of the best built
and most convenient stations on the line
of the road. Its walls are of the most
substantial character, and the waiting
rooms are large and possessing every
necessary convenience. Under instrue-
tions from Mr. Roberts the company's
architect is now engaged in drawing plans
for the improvement of the present sta
ton. The general idea is to add second
story, with elevators and a broad hand
some stairway to the ground floor. The
old rickety board causeway is to be taken
down. and new and handsome one to be
constructed straight across to the station
from Clinton street.
The improvement of their passenger
station in this city has been one of the
most perplexing questions that the Penn
sylvania Railroad Company has had to
deal with. After the great freshet of a
few years ago, when the tracks and the
station were flooded, it was decided that
the station must be removed to higher
ground. The difficulty was to secure =
satisfactory site. Several different plans
were made, adopted and afterwards re-
jected. After much consideration it was
decided that the station should be located
west Of the canal in the heart of the city.
But it was essential to this plan that it
should be union depot-one to accom-
modate the Belvidere Division, the Am
boy Division and the Main Line. The
engineers and some other officials of the
company have been puzzling their brains
over this problem ever since, and it seems
that they have now given it up in despair.
It cannot be done, and so the present
station is to be enlarged and improved.
