The Revolt of the Northwest Indians Grow
ing More Serious-RieI Well Equipped.
WINNIPEG. April 1.-AdviceS from Bat
tleford show that the situation is growing
worse. Mckay. agent Of the Hudson Bay
Company, telegraphed last night that the
half-breedS and Indians are plundering the
company'S stores. When he with the In
dian agent ventured out of the barracks to
demonstrate with them both were fired upon
by the Indians and half-breedS, who tried
to cut them off on their way back, but the
men succeeded in getting inside under fire.
A subsequent dispatch says the Indians
have killed four instructors. Later news is
to the effect that all the half-breeds have
Joined the malcOntentS and are rifling all
the store buildings outside of the barracks.
In the barracks the men have arms and am
munition and supplies to
HOLD OUT UNTIL RELIEVED.
HaIf-breedS are soon expected there from
Duck Lake. The Stony Indians have
Joined the rest. and have killed several
men. The buildings on the south side i'll
Guiding the Hudson Bay COmpany's store
houses, have been burned, as was also the
Government building. The Indians had
seized all the cattle among the settlements
near the Stony reserve nearest BattlefOrd,
but had been quiet up to this morning, when
they went upon the warpath. Their rising
makes the situation very critical. Colonel
Herschmer has left Regina for BattlefOrd
via Swift Current with seventy mounted
police and one cannon. 1t is supposed that
he can reach there in six days if not inter
rupted. Fears are entertained that the
half-breeds from Duck Lake will go
to Winnipeg and cut off all COM
munication and interrupt the advance of
Herschmer The Indians on Fort Piles re-
serve between BattlefOrd and Edmonton
are likely to join those at BattlefOrd. The
wires are still broken between Battleford
and Edmonton, but it is not known whether
they were cut by half breeds or not. 1t is
said that Riel has fully one thousand men
under his command, of whom half are In
dams.

of arms OH board for the revolution. The
agents refused the delivery. Conner, local

ST. LOUIS, March 31.-The suspense
which the family of Ex-Governor Fletcher
has been suffering for week past was this
morning relieved BY the receipt of a tele-
gram from an old friend of the family, A.
J. Sampson, eX-AttOrney-General of Colo
RADIO. which stated that Governor Fletcher
had been for sOr.e days past stopping at the
Windsor Hotel in Denver, Col. and that he
had left there on Saturday. the 2Sth instant,
I'm response to an urgent business telegram.
Governor Fletcher left ST. Louis on Satur-
day, the 21st instant, without letting either
his family or his friends know that he was
going anywhere. As day after day went
by and no tidings were received, Mrs
Fletcher and her friends became prey to
the most extreme anxiety, and after a course
of fruitless inquiries, directed to all those
parts of the country where there was any
hope that the missing gentleman might have
gone, the search was turned over to the
police, and the facts of the disappearance
became public property. \ notice of the
facts in the case was telegraphed, amongst
other PLACES, to Denver, and there caught
the eye of General Sampson. While his
statement is very positive and explicit as to
the Governors stay in Denver, it gives
nothing more than the facts stated above.

The CentrnI American War.

New YORK, March 31.-News has been
received here to-day that the States of Mica
ragua, Costa Rica and San Salvador have
entered into a formal alliance, pledging
themselves to uTstedly resist the war made
upon them by President Barrios of Guate-
mala. Nicaragua pledges herself to con-
tribute to the common defence 1000 troops,
San Salvador her whole army of $1,000
men, and Costa Rica 1000 men and $780,
600. Costa Rica prefers TO give money
rather than send troops outside of her own
boundary, but can raise $1,000 men easily
for the defence of her own territory if that
should be threatened. Nicaragua could Oh
an emergency raise also $1,000 men.
