INDIGNATION AT JACKSONVILLE.


JACKSONVILLE, Fla. Nov 2S.-New cases
g. deaths none. Total cases, 1850; total
death, 46S.
There is great Indignation over the re
fusal of the board OF health to issue a
proclamation allowing the return OF
refugees to this city Great pressure is
being brought to bear by the people to be
allowed to return to the city, and some of
the citizens here go so far as 10 say they
will prevent their arrest if they come in
on trains. Hazen, returned New York
refugee, who has been residing at Burn
side beach of late, came to town today and
wac arrested and fined 800. He refused
to pay the fine and now lies in the city
jail. On the other hand one or two refu-
gees are known to have come in on today s
northern train and no notice of the fact
was taken by the police. The Times
Union in long leader condemns the ac-
tIon of the authorities.

refusing to allow the building of branch
to the main stem of the road he says: In
absence of any authority OF law for con-
struction of the proposed branch or spur
of railroad in the reservation, no permits
sion can be granted by the department for
that purpose"
He also calls the attention of the COM
missioner of Indian affairs to the fact that
though the former grant for the main road
through .the Puyallup reservation was
made by the Indians and approved by tho
department April Is, 1877, it was done
without authority, as congress alone has
power to authorize the construction OF
railroads through Indian reservations.
MATSON KNOWS NOTHING OF 1T.
WASHINGTON, Nov 2S.-Referring to the
published statement that Congressman
Matson is believed to be at the head of the
movement to organize a Democratic
Grand Army of the Republic that gentle
man says he knows nothing of it except
what he has read in newspapers and con-
sequently is not at the head or any other
part of the affair. The other statement in
the dispatch that his friends expect him to
follow the example of General Palmer and
withdraw from the Grand Army Of the
Republic, he says, is also without fOunda-
ton. He never was member of the or
ganiZation and therefore cannot withdraw
During the campaign Matson and Myers
reg mentS OF veterans were formed IN
every county in Indiana, and it is probable
that these organizations form the basis of
the new movement in that state, but Of
this he cannot speak by authority.

ST. LOUIS, Mo-, Nov. ga delegation
of Creek Indians has arrived in the city on
their way to Washington to protest
against the schemes of the Oklahoma
boomers. D. NJ. Dodge, prominent
Creek, is at the head of the party. He
said: I'VE have full power to treat for the
Creeks. we will try to settle the Oklahoma
question with the government. | do not
speak for the other four nations, but for
the Creeks. | say we are not willing to
give up our claims on the land unless
possession is acquired by purchase. That
land became the property of the civilized
tribes by a treaty in 1885 An act has since
been passed which prevented the Indians,
its lawful owners, from occupying the
land. The question must soon be settled.
| am sure that all tribes would release
their claims for fair sum from the gov
eminent. That is what we will propose to
the next congress-"

and handed us the following for
publication:
On the 2lst Of May, I went out
to trim out trail up creek. On
going past the horses missed one
colt. spoke to kit,a gray mare be-
longing to Bill Little, and she came
up to me and l saw that she had
been in a fight. She was all torn
and scratched about the head and
one eye is out. l went back to Bill
and together we went in search Of
the colt. We found the spot where
the fight took place, the ground was
torn up and some lion hair and hide
was on the ground-but the lion
had killed the colt and dragged it
down into thicket Of bush. We
set four traps around the carcas and
was in hopes of getting the lion, but
he did not come-but we caught a
fine black bear in one of the traps
We got him out and went on up the
creek and killed a brown bear. Sc
we got two that day. We were in.
formed by two men who were pros.
pecting that the lions, bears and
cougars are killing colts and calves
all the way from Pine Grove to tho
forks of the river. Would it not b.
a good idea for the stock men and
the legislature to offer reward fol
these destructive beasts, and by &C
doing protect the stock and small
wild game. In going along tn.
river last winter l saw not less thar
% deer which had been killed b,
these animals.
