the foreclosure Of the mortgage on the
Texas 81 st. Louis Narrow-Gauge from
Texarkana to Gatesville, or the entire
line in Texas. This grows out of the
bondholders' suit, in which the Cen
trail Trust company of New York
is trustee and which throws
the road into the hands of receiver.
An order of sale will be published soon
by Special Master In Chancery McCor-
mack at Dallas, but the date Of the sale
is not definitely decided. 1t will have
to be some time this summer. The
presumption is that the road will be
made standard gauge as soon as pos
sible after the sale, also that there will
be sharp combination made on the
part OF the conflicting interests who
want to purchase and control it. This
liue il the only competition the Gould
system has in Central Texas business

dIcating that the Moose Indians are In
communication with Pound Maker.
The Fort Pitt garrison, which has
arrived here, gives us the first definite
intelligence we have received of the
fight at that place. They say that the
Indians made demonstrations against
the fort and that Father Mclean, be-
coming alarmed, visited Big Bear and
had conference with that chief,
from whom he claimed protection.
The chief compelled him TO write
letter TO the civilians telling them to
come In or be killed and the police to
surrender their arms and leave. The
civilians complied with the request
and went into Big Bears camp, but
the police refused to surrender their
arms and fight ensued. The police
drove the Indians backI killing
four and woundiDg several. Police
man Cowan was killed and Policeman
Lousby was wounded. The police
then fitted up scow with which they
reached Battleford. They were
not followed. Before leaving
they destroyed all the arms
and ammunition they could not carry.
Father McLean's timidity embar-
raised the police and proved fatal to
the liberty Of over twenty-five white
men, women and children. The
wounded policeman is recovering. 1t
is feared that Young Quinn, scout, is
In the hands the Indians.
Frank Schwart, a merchant, was
shot and killed by the Indians while
performing patrol duty last night.
There was a general raid on the town.

Arms to the Colombian Rebels.

New York, April 22,-Capt. John
O'Brien OF the steamer City Of Mexico
was arrested by deputy United
States marshal this afternoon on a
charge Of violating section 52S3 of the

tered in March to carry lumber to

she took on board twenty-five insur-
gents and proceeded to Rio Hochates.
Here the captain of the port,
taking the City of Mexico to
be an American vessel, put out TO her
and was captured with his crew. At
Santa Maria, it is said, portion of the
cargo was discharged. The first mate
of the steamer was Capt. Mccarthy,
who figured on the MARY n. Hogan"
