ST. PAUL, MINI. April 11--Louii Riel. the
leader of the present revolt which is giving
the Canadian authorities so much trouble
is native Of Manitoba, having been born
there II years ago, under the old Hudson
Iay regime. He IS of French ancestry but
has some Indian blood in his veins. He
is well educated bold and insinuatin:s
In his manners, and just the man. to
lead the haIf-breeds. When the Hudson
Bay company sold the greater part of their
lands to the Canadian government in 1884,
Rie. commanded the haif-breed INSURE A.

established a provisional government, aa4sd
fdi the property at the fert, and he and
his associates in the movement became pos
sesse1 O: hundreds of thousands OF dollars
worth of property. A number OF loyal CIV
iiaEs attempted to resist Riel but they Were
put down, and one Thomas Scott was shot.
When Col. Wolseley, now Gen. Lord Woise
ley, and the Canadian militia, to the number
OF about 1,000, appeared in front OF Fort
Garry, Riel fled and the prov isiGnai govern
nlent was d SOLVED. At that time some con
cessionS were made to the a]f-breeds of Man
itoba, each of them getting 240 acres of land-
This satisfied the half-breeds Of that province.
The present outbreak is owing to the fac
that tic half-breeds OF the remaining p0r
tions OF the northwest were not similarly
treated. What Riel now wants is to get for
the other half-breads what the insurrection of
1859 got for the people OF Fort Garry.
