that Mosby was not only the ''dashing-

this means that Mosby has been voting

word that they we're going to attend sun
dance, but it is feared they have more serious
Intentions, as they bave often threatened to
join the Cheyennes and massacre the unpro-
tocted whites along the Tongue and Powder
rivers
The Indians requested Agent Gallagher to
allow them to go to the Tongue river
country last week; but the latter, suspecting
that there would be trouble, refused to per-
init them to leave the reservation. As soon
as 1t was learned that the Indians had gone
telegram was sent to Gen. Ruger, who
wired Col Dudley at Fort Custer TO send
out troops at once TO intercept them. In the
atterneoA two companies of the First cavalry
started in hot pursuit across the country to
meet the recactrant reds The troops are
IN command Of Maj j. W. Hamilton and
First Lieut.. r p. Wainwright Il is be-
heved that a bloody battle will be fought
before the Sioux are taken back TO their
reservation, as they are in bad state Of
