Mills orY, Mont, Nov, 22.-one troop
OF the Seventh cavalry and small detach-
ment Of the Fifth infantry, under COM
mand Of Major Snyder. of the Fifth intan-
try, left Fort Keogh this morning under
orders from department headquarters to
quell reported Indian disturbance at the
Tongue river, Cheyenne agency. As far
as can be learned here there Ia no
foundation for q report Of q dis
turbance. Black Wolf, Chief Of
the Tongue river Cheyennes has been
here for . week and his band would do
nothing without him. Recent reports by
Bishop Brodei Of famine among the In
diAns, supplemented by, Government In.
Bpector Houser's request TO have relief
sent them, must have been misconstrued
into q supposition that the Indians were
ugly and:neededan armed force TO restrain
them.
