This we'll known military post is stu
ated one and half miles east of Sturgis
The first military camp was established
in the spring of 1876, on Spring creek,
north of Bare Butte. This camp was
called scamp Sturgis," in honor of Lieu
tenant Sturgis, killed in the Custer mas
sacre. The present fort was established
in the August following and named after
the celebrated Union general, George G.
Meade. The site is most magnificent
one. On one side rises the foothills Of
the Black Hills covered with their dark
pines, while on the other hand stretches
away toward the east the rolling pralr-
les. Bare Butte, just north of the post,
rises straight out Of the level prairie and
stands like some lonely sentinel watch
ing over soldier and citizen alike. The
buildings comprising the post are new
and elegant, and from the lips Of officers
who have seen the majority of the posts
of the country we have heard that Fort
Meade is one of the most desirable loca-
tions in tho entire war department. The
post is a ten-company post, and at pres
emit is. occupied by the Third infantry
(white) and the Eighth cavalry, who re-
Gently moved here from Montana and
Texas, respectively. Until May this
post was occupied by the Seventh caval-
ry and Twenty fifth infantry.
The post requires enormous quantities
of supplies, all of which are furnished by
the farmers of the country contiguous
An idea of the amount of material used
can be gathered from scrutinizing the
following figures: Hay, LOO tons; corn
10000 pounds; oats, 100000 pounds
wood, 5000 cords, and other supplies II

post buildings was $4,000, but eacl
year improvements are made that ado

occurred at Bevier Wednesday night between
the Swedes who work in coal mine No and
the unemployed or striking miners. which
lasted until early hour i'm the morning.
There were between I. 500 and 1000 shots fired.
The row OF business houses north Of the Han
nibal and st. Joe passenger depot were riddled
with bullets fred by the Swedes. Many Of the
windows were pierced with holes. The rioters
were located in buildings and about a half
dozen were wounded. One man. Chas. Thorn

shaft Hostilities have ceased. The citizens
OF Bevier held meeting last evening and
adopted resolutions deprecating the lRwless-
ness and pledging themselves 20 assist the civil
authorities in keeping peace hereafter.
Reports as TO who started the battle are con-

LONDON, Dec. 1T was expected that Gen.
Lord wolseiey would make statement in the
house of lords yesterday respecting Church
ills disclosures. consequently there was large
Attendance. Churchill took position early at
the foot Of the throne, the space reserved for
members of the house Of commons, but as the
time wore on and no statement was forthcom-
ing the audience dwindled. While Churchill
stood expectant Lord Salisbury left the house,
passing in close proximity to him, but without
speaking. This fact was generally remarked.
A certain section of the tory party even talk of
drumming Churchill out of the Carlton club.
While Churchill kept his own party ig .orant
Of his intended motion in regard 10 Suakim, a
fve-lne whip was issued the same day TO the
liberals The real reason was that on the same
day an important vote on the chief secretary's
salary was down for discussion, and the liberals
intended 70 move a reduction. Churchills ex-
ance of his intentions is that If they had got
wind of it some tory member would have been
certain to give a purely formal notice OF q
motion about Suakim. thus, by the rules of the
house. preventing any discussion of the sub
ject on a question of adjournment.

WHITE CAPS TO BE CRUSHED.

CHICAGO, Dec. IA dispatch from New
Albany. Ind, referring to the indictment and
arrest of nine white caps in Crawford county,
says: All of the arrested men are well known
and several of them are quite prominent The
arrests have caused intense excitement at the
village of West Fork and in the towns of Eng
hsh and Eckerty, near West Fork. The in
tention is to prosecute these men TO the end OF
the law. and to this end Governor Gray has
ordered prominent criminal attorney at
Corydon 70 assist the prosecuting attorney.
On several occasions white caps have been in
dicted in both Crawford and Harrison counties
upon the evidence OF their victims, who recog-
nized them, but jury could never be pro-
cured which had the courage to return a ver-
diet Of guilty. So dominating has been the in
fuence of this masked and oath-bound gang OF
night riders in Crawford and Harrison coun-
ties that real estate has greatly deprecated in
value. emigration into the counties has been
stopped, and many citizens have sold their
farms at any price they could get and changed
their resid ence to other localities.

Action has been taken by Secretary Whitney
government with regard to the case of the
American steamer, Haytien Republic, recently
seized at Port au Prince, Hayti The release
OF the vessel has been demanded through the
proper diplomatic channels, and If the demand
is not complied with within reasonable period
of time steps will be taken to enforce it
With this end in view Secretary Whitney yes
terday sent telegraphic instructions to Rear
Admiral Gherardi, commandant of the
New York navy-yard, to have the ships
Richmond, Galena and Yantic prepared for
sea as rapidly as possibly. It was expected
that these vessels would, in the ordinary pro-
gress of the work upon them. be completed in
about two week. The idea now is to have
them ready so that they can sail direct for
Hayti early next weeks. Orders have also been
issued for Rear Admiral Luce, commanding
the North Atlantic station. to transfer his flag
from the Galena to the Richmond and to use
that vessel as the flagship of the expedition.
WHAT SECRETARY WHITNEY SAYS.
Officials Of the State department are, as
usual, reticent on the subject and will not ad-
NIT even that the release of the Haytieu Re-
public has been demanded Secretary Whit
ney, however, is very outspoken in the matter,
and when approached by STAR reporter to-
day admitted frankly that he had ordered the
naval vessels Ut New York to be put in readiness
as soon as possible to start for Hayti. He
added: "There is a local disturbance there,
you know, and it is always a good plan to have
naval vessels near at hand OH such occasions"
You remember" he continued, that the Hay
tien authorities referred the case of the seized
steamer to this government. Well, we have
reached decision. and that is in short. that
they have got to give her up. 1t is unfortu-
nate that the yellow fever broke out on the
Boston while she was at Port-au-Prince. and
compelled her to leave for cooler climate.
Otherwise matters might have been settled
before now. If it would not be somewhat un-
safe we would send the Boston back to aid the
other vessels in case of necessity. That's
about all there is to it, We do not think that
the seizure of the vessel was justified.
and are therefore determined that she must be
delivered up to us." The fact that the govern
ment is about to send several vessels to Haytien
waters, where they are likely to become infect
ed with yellow fever, is considered as another
evidence that the situation ia regarded as of
unusual gravity. The dangers of yellow fever
are disregarded and the naval vessels are to get
the Haytie Republic even if they get the yellow
jack with it.
