INDIAN TROUBLES.
Threatened Outbreak of the Cheyennes
at Fort Rene.


WASHINGTON, June 22.-The War
Department has received reports from
Fort Reno, Ind. Ter, dated the 10th in
slant, to the effect that great excitement
prevails at that place over a threatened
Indian outbreak by the Cheyennes. The
Indians known as the Southern Chey-
ennes are making preparations to go on
the warpath. Throops have been dis
patched to quell the disturbances. A few
days since troops were sent to quiet a
local disturbance among the same In
dams. The War Department officials
are not informed as to the cause of the
threatened outbreak Saturday. If these
Indians go on the warpath there will be
great difficulty in quieting them. The
Cheyennes are reported to be as trouble
some to deal with as are the Apaches
The country, however, in which the
former live would be more advantageous
to the soldiers pursuing them than is the
rough rocky country in which the latter
are being followed
News was received at the War Depart
ment late this afternoon to the eff
feet that the difficulties with the
Cheyenne Indians are becoming very
serious. Gen. Augur has ordered four
companies of the Fifth Cavalry to 90 to
the scene of the disturbance in addition
to the companies previously sent. This
makes ten companies at Reno, and three
additional companies are held in readi-
ness to go at moments notice. Gen.
AugUr recommends the appointment of a
commission to ascertain the cause Of the
discomfort The Southern Jheyennes are
located in the western portion of the Ter
ritory. The country is level and devoid
OF trees, except along the streams. Owing
to its great extent 1t is very easy for the
Indians to keep out of the way of troops.
1t is believed here that the Indians are
well supplied with arms and ammunition.
The last trouble with the Cheyennes &C.
CURED about nine years ago, and con-
tinued for more than a year. 1t
was caused by Indians of that
tribe massacring a portion of a
family moving overland. The massacre
occurred in Kansas. The father, mother
and daughter. were killed and four re-
manning children taken captive. The
daughter who was killed, before she was
captured took the life of an Indian with
an ak as he attempted to get into the
wagon in which the children were gath
cred. Prior to this massacre the Chey-
ennes became unfriendly towards the
whites. A number of men disguised as
Indians had burned bridge on the Kan
sas Pacific railroad, for the purpose of
stopping train that they might plumber
it. After tho destruction of the bridge,
soldiers were sent 20 capture the men i'm
plicated. An officer CHANGED, one day,
to see an Indian standing alone at dis
lance. He drew near, fred, and killed
him. The Indian was the son of Lone
Wolf, the great Cheyenne chief. When
he was buried, 400 ponies were
killed above his grave. Though Lone
Wolf himself didn't participate in the
outbreak whish followed his sons death,
1t was thought that the shooting of the
young / Indian greatly VI. infu %P the
ere of the Georgia family followed, and

Operations of the Bureau for the Past
week
WASHINGTON, June 22.-During the
week ended June 9th the Board of
Review of the Pension Office has sent to
the certificate division for the issue of
certificates of pension of SS8 original and
997 increase claims. There have been
rejected 965 claims, and 531 have been
sent back to the adjudicating division of
the Office for further evidence, making a
total of 1880 cases disposed Of The
number for the week ended June 18th
was 1908, and for the week ended June
9th was 1884. About fifty per cent. of the
increase claims acted on by the pension
Office for the month ended June 10th
were rejected, and this is about the
average per cent. of such claims rejected.
1t frequently happens that a pensioner
when he applies for increase is found not
to be entitled as high rate as he is re-
ceiving, and his application for increase
results in the reduction of his rate of
pension per month.
