Crowdine on tho Reservation.

NIoBRARA, Neb, May 23.-lSpecal to THE
BEE. Notwithstanding the warning of
Secretary of the Interior Noble that all set
tiers on the Sioux reservation will be ordered
off the crossing over the Niobrara river at
this point over the government bridge is
continued daily by new comers. Tne tail
end of the Oklahoma boomers are daily ar
rivlng, and their experience at that opening
has been such as to lead them into trouble
here. They think that the government was
very quick to keep them out of that country,
but very slow to keep out the spectators
who were in with the government officials.
Thus it is that they feel that "the early bird
catches the worm," and are willing to risk
much. They are advised by the better ele-
ment here to take no such chances, and while
some heed the good advice, there are others
whose headstrong movements will doubtless
lead them into trouble. The Indians on this
portion of the reservation would give them
no trouble, but the government, as a matter
of policy, may. The excellent crossing here,
with good roads to Niobrara, both from the
south and north, and a steam ferry plying
between the two shores on the Missouri
river, furnishes very easy access to the
Sioux reservation boomers.
