Riel,s Trial.

OTTAWA, Ont. May 25.-It is under
stood to be more than likely that Riel will
be tried under an act of Edward the Third
entitled ''An act defining which offenses
shall be adjudged treason" If Riel were
an American born citizen.he could be tried
under the provisions of chapter IA of the
dominion acts of 1S67-S, but the old axiom
which declares ''once British subject al
ways British subject" may still have suf-
ficient force to operate as bar to convic-
tion in case of trial under it's authority.

Big Bear Ready for a Fight.


VICTORIA, May Is, via Calgary May "a.
Maj. Steele's scouts found on their ar
rival here that everything had been stolen.
There were but few potatoes and the place
was deserted. It will be guarded until the
main force arrives on it's way to Fort Pitt.
Alarming reports are current regarding the
number Of Big Bears men. There has been
so much unavoidable delay in the expedi-
ton that he has had time to recruit from
every tribe in the district Restless, spirits
and young men eager for reputation have
left their own chiefs and joined him, until
now lie has force Of 800 men
FAIRLY ARMED.
Most of the cattle he had butchered and the
meat was dried. and with this and a large
quantity of provisions and plumber taken in
raids he is too much encumbered to move.
He declares he will make a stand at Big
Hills, between Frog Lake and Fort Pitt.
Scouts say he intends placing his captive
women and children at the front SO that the
troops may not fire upon him. However,
we have artillery, and from what has been
shown at drill a flank movement could be
made as quickly as by cavalry. There will
also be with us a mounted force Of $50 men,
so that if Big Bear does make the stand
proposed he will give us the best possible
chance of defeating him. The general has
an escort of twenty mounted

$40 and teamsters are an armed
reserve OF Ito. 1t is hoped an immediate
advance will be made, since we are distant

Episcopal, from Mcleod, whose people live
here, has gone alone into Big Bears camp
to do what he can to alleviate the sufferings
of captives and try to arrange for their re-
lease. He is a Cree half breed and person
ally acquainted with Big Bear. Anxiety
prevails over the announcement that we
have only ten days provisions with us now,
and that we must be delayed here until
supplies comes from Edmonton. Settlers
are holding cattle for 25 cents per fb.

secured here but the supply is limited.

of communists, in celebration of the fall of
the commune, has been orderly. The gov

the procession to march into the Pere la

and was hailed by the paraders with
shouts of 'sVive La Commune. The policy
of the authorities in simply ignoring the
