INDIANS INCLINED TO FIGHT.
Danger of BlOodshed on the Ieech Lake Reser-
vatiOn Over Signing the Rolls.

MINNEAPOLIS. Aug. ia special message
from the Indian commission at Leech Lake
reservation came this morning by half
breed. He says the pillagers on that reser-
walton are in deadly quarrel over the
presence of the commission. and about
equally divided as between those who are
willing to sign and those opposed, the lat
ter threatening death to the first person
who does sign. and as consequence no one
has yet signed, and the commissioners have
devoted their whole efforts, so far, to pre-
venting a conflict. The opponents are, the
runner states, armed with Winchester rifles,
and have gone SO far as to threaten all the
whites on the reservation. The commits
sioners are safely lodged at Sam Weaver's,
a ranch near the old trading post.
Just before this runner left Leech Lake,
a mounted messenger was dispatched by
the commissioners, who rode swiftly to the
southwark, it is believed, with urgent dis
patches for the government or for the Gov
ernor of the. State, possibly asking for
troops. Another Indian just in reports that
a young buck. relative of Flat Mouth, the
chief there, was shot, Sunday night, for
favoring the signing. Flat Mouth himself
is absent from the reservation.

specia, to the Indianapolis Journal.
BERLIN, Aug. 15.-Military men are
watching with keen interest the expert
ments on the continent with the new
smOkeless powder. So far nothing but its
higher cost has been brought forward
against it to cOunterbalance the very evil
dent advantages which result from its use.
AT the Spandau maneuvers yesterday both
Emperors watched with great interest the
shooting from the side using the smokeless
powder. and noted with much satisfaction
that on that side the movements of the
troops not being hampered by the dense
volume of smoke which hung over the op-
posing army, were characterized by much
greater precision and freedom of action. 1t
Is not strictly correct to speak of
this new powder as smOkeless, for there
certainly is some smoke, but it Is very
light, and at Spandau, yesterday, after the
firing had continued for an hour or more at
a si1tsSance of three hundred yards from the
troops using this powder no smoke what
ever could be seen although nearer ap-
proach disclosed light, steam-like vapor.
What was perhaps quite rs noticeable q
feature was the absence to a great extent
of the deafening noise, to which we are ac-
custOmed from the explosion of firearms.
1t is calculated that the report of given
volume of the smokeless powder is just half
as loud as with the same volume of ordi-
nary powder.

PHILADELPHIA, Aug. 15.-William Jones,
for twenty years trusted employe of +.
IL. Butler d Co., educational publishers, of
this city, has disappeared. He is said to be
$4,000 short in his accounts. Jones is a
bachelor, and lived alone in an old-fash-
ioned residence in Germantown. He is
said to have had passion for collecting
rare books. engravings and antiques of all
sorts. His house was filed from cellar to
garrett with valuable effects. Every nook
and corner was stuffed with antique furni-
fure. The walls were heavy with rare
plates from the masters works. The shelves
of his bookcases were weighted with rare
and uncut volumes of standard authors.
COnnoisseurs have already pronounced his
effects one of the most valuable private
collections in the city. All of this collec-
lion, it is said, has been turned over to his
late employers in partial restitution of the
shortage. The firm is disposed to be very
Ienient with Jones.
