ing the Indian scare along the line He found
people much excited and many actually mor-
ing out and leaving their homes. In all his
travels he has learned of no actual depreda-
tlons committed by Indians, and has seen no
one who has seen hostile Indian within the
state state. He caused local militia companies TO be
organized, which he supplied with state arms,
under the direction of Gov. Martin. Col. Comp

state with four companies of cavalry enroute

spite the report from Fort Reno that Indians
are fast returning to the agency. 1t is well

they are taking out their best arms, horses and
quantities of ammunition. Ii Is significant
fact that they all go into the Texas Pan Handle

WHAT MIR. HOLMAN ) COMMITTEE PROPOSES FOR
THE GOOD OF THE RED MAN.
Representative IIolman's special congress-
ional committee to Investigate Indian affairs,
consisting of himself and Congressman Cannon,
of Illinois. and Congressman Ryan, of Kansas
are to visit the Pine Ridge and Rosebud agen-
cies in Dakota. Representatives Peel, of Arkan-
sas and Hatch, of Missouri, are detained at
home. A telegram to the New York Herald
from Omaha says: Mr. Holman said that it was
proposed If possible to concentrate the unsettled
portions OF the sioux, Crow and other tribes in
the Indian Territory, where they could better
be taken care OF and educated and civilized
than on scattered reservations. 1t Is not pro-
posed to recommend that the settled Indians
those who have taken lands under allotment i'm
severaity-shali be disturbed. 1t is the inten-
ton OF the committee to recommend the
purchase of the Sioux reservation in Da-
kota If 1t can be obtained at a price
at which the government can afford to
open some to homestead settlement
Mr.. Holman believes the purchase will be ad.
vantageous to both the Indians and the govern
from the Sioux 1t could be made to yield
Sic, ,OOO,O0 even at the low price of fifty cents
an acre. This money would make the Indians
quite Independent and would naturally reduce
the annual appropriations that are made for
their benefit. The removal of these Indians to
trouble about Oklahoma and Indian Territory
in time would become an Independent Indian
state. The committee emphatically disap-
prove of ever placing Indian affairs under the
control of the army. Most OF the trouble with
the Indians, they say, is due to bad agents, and
port upon their methods. They will also in
Qufre into the matter of education, and will
probably recommend a thorough system OF
schools among the Indians on reservations.

GOOD FEELING BETWEEN THE SOLDIERS AND
CITIZENS, AND THE STRIKERS ORDERLY.
BAY CITY, MICH, July 17.-There fs no par
ticular change in the situation of the strike 30.
day from that Of last evening. All the works
running yesterday continue to-day. Birdsall a
Bauer's Salt Block started to-day, At the same
pay and on the same terms before the strike.
They say that tomorrow morning they will b0
ready TO start one saw In their mill, providing
there enough men on hand who know
whether they want to work, without asking
some 'bridge hummer whether they may or
not. III not, they will remain closed for the xt
fXty days. The militia paraded last evening,
and the streets were lined with people. Tho
best feeling prevails between the citizens and
soldiers. The strikers have evidently settled
down TO the idea that their former policy Of
interfering with establishments desiring To run
will not be tolerated. McLean's mill yesterday
attempted to cut as much lumber in ten hours
IL formerly did in eleven hours. The con-
tractor of the mill watched the proceedings for
an hour, and then told the foreman that he did
not propose to have his lumber destroyed any
longer. and that the mill must cut lumber
according to agreement or stop cutting his logs.
EAST SAGINAW, MICH, July 11.-Every thing
is quiet this morning, and the situation re
mains unchanged. No additional mills have
started TODAY.

In political circles here there is gossip to the

elect the state ticket, while others maintain
that the legislature would be more valuable TO

ELEMENT MAKING THREATS

ELEMENT MAKING THREATS
CINCINNATI, OHIO, July 17.-Last night was
quiet In the iron ward. The streets were de-
serted early and there was no excitement what.
ever. Very few policemen were on duty i'm the
ward and there were none at the mills. A feel
Ing or insecurity has settled upon the citizens
and they are anxious to see the end of the trou-
BILE. A notice was posted in the mills this MORN
Ing announcing that the mills would be closed
fndefnitely or until the men were willing to re-
turn to work. This has somewhat allayed the
feeling Of unrest, as the men who were willing
to resume work in the mills were afraid to do
SO for fear of being waylaid and murdered, or OF
having their houses burned. The police author
ities feel confident that there will not be an
other outbreak until the mills are started up or
the men paid of. The foreign elements OF the
strike feel their defeat keenly, and threats are
made that they will yet be masters Of the situa-
ton.
