INDIAN TROUBLES.
The Arrapahoe Tribes Assure General
sheridan that They Have Been Peace-
able.
WICHITA, Kan. july u.

WICHITA, Kan, July u.
A special from Fort Reno says that the
dissatisfied Indians were gwen an opportu-
nifty to talk with Gen. Sheridan. The con-
ference was confidential and private, but it
was learned from the Indians that the ele-
ments represented in the talk were the Stone
Calf and Little Roubout factions that have
been creating much trouble out on the
western part of the reservation, for since the
Cantonment was abandoned as military
POSITIVE bands have been making their head
quarters at Fort Supply instead of the
agency.
The warriors assured Gen. Sheridan that
they were glad to see so ilustrious visitor
direct from Washington, and that the talk
that the Cheyennes wanted to fight was all
lie. On the contrary they were now and
always have been entirely peaceabe. They
affirmed that they had some cause of com
plaint that they did not like their agent, and
that they were opposed to the grass lease.
On this account they would like to have a
large portion of their reservation set off sep
arately for their own use, so they could have
their own agent to lease their grass to their
own friends. Powder Face, an Arrapahoe
chief, was present and made speech, in
which he told Gen. Sheridan that for many
years his people had never fought the whites !;
tnat ne (Sntriuan,) wen knew that tne Ar
rapahoes had refused to join the Cheyennes
in their last war that, in the present trouble,
the Arrapahoes had remained by the side of
the whites; and that thus, having been
friendly for so many years, he thought the
Arrapahoss' statements should lave as much
weight as those of the turbulent Cheyennes
present who were always making trouble.
He said that the Cheyennes who talked
against grass leases were only very small
number of the tribe, and that large major
ity of the Cheyennes and Arrapahoes were
strongly in favor of the grass leases.
Gen. Sheridan is very wiling to allow the
Indians to amuse themselves by talking un-
I'll he can make suitable disposition of his
troops. Then he will talk.
A Fort Reno despatch says that Gen. Sher.
Han has organized an Indian police force
composed of 100 young Cheyennes. 1t il
said that the General in his report, will at
tribute the dissatisfaction among the Indians
chiefly to cattle cases.

THE CITY OF TOXIC.
Full Particulars Of the Wreck Of the Yes.
sci Near Yokohama.

SAN Francisco, July 81
Some of the crew Of the Pacific mail steam
ship, City Of Toxic, arrived on the Arabic
from China and gave the first full account
of the wreck of the Toxic near Yokohama
Their story of the disaster is as follows:
About on the evening of June 23d. the
light of Cape King on the japanese coast was
sighted. thick fog then settled down and
hardly a ripple rnfiled the surface Of the
water. The Toxic after sighting the light
made up the narrows for Yokohama. II was
impossible to distinguish a landmark along
the shore. and there are no fog horn stations
TO guide the mariner. Commodore Maury
was on the bridge. The first, third and
fourth officers were also on deck. The ship
kept on her course steadily until midnight
and was supposed to be in the channel
Suddenly the man on the lookout and the
commodore on the bridge felt the vessel
sliding easily and noslessly on a shelving
rock. In one iDstiDt the prov had plowed
into bluff. Trees on the banks stretched
their branches over the rails of the Toxic.
The fog was still thick, but the sea was as
still as mill pond and the vessel rested
quietly. The engines were reversed and all
the strength of the machinery exerted to
back her of. The screw churned the water
but the Toxic held fast. As the tide went
down the whole wreck of the vessel, which
was estimated at about 5000 tons, rested on
the keel. Under this burden her sides be-
gan to sag. 1t was decided to at once jetti-
son part Of the cargo to relieve the frame of
the vessel. A large quantity Of -four was
