tiles there To prevent this the Indian
police were at once sent out to his camp
on the Grand river to effect his arrest. 1t
was feared that the Indians would resist
the taking of their chief, and troop of
cavalry under Capt. Fouchet and force
of infantry under Col. Drum were hurried
on to support the police.
The Rush for the Old Chief.
When the Indian police-who numbered
about twenty men-reached Sitting Bulls
village they found the Sioux all ready to
depart for the southwest, and instant ac-
ton was necessary to prevent this move
ment. The police at once made rush for
Sitting Bull, surrounded him and, telling
him he was prisoner, started at once on
the trail for the agency. The old chief
made no attempt at resistance, but hardly
had his capture been made when his son
headed party of Bulls followers and at
tempted to recapture their chief.
Killed While Trying to Escape.
A desperate running fight ensued, and
the police were getting the worst of il,
when the cavalry came up. In the skirmish
Sitting Bull attempted to get away from
his captors and join the attacking party of
his friends. He fought wildly, and was
killed with several of his followers. Five
of the Indian police also fell dead, and the
whole band would probably have been
massacred had it not been for the timely
arrival of the cavalry. Early in the melee,
one of the police jumped on one of Sitting
Bulls horses and rode back to the cavalry
and infantry, telling them to hurry up to
the support of the police, and then hurried
on to the agency with news of the battle.
THE NEWS AT STANDING ROCK.
Preparations at Once Made to Support
the Troops.
The courier reached here with the news
yesterday afternoon, and at once carried it
to headquarters. This news caused great
excitement at the agency, and informa-
ton was at once sent to Fort Yates, where
preparations were made to support the
troops which had been sent forward with
the arresting party. The force at the Fort
is net large. but it is thought TO be strong
enough to cope with the reds in case thew
continue the fight which was begun YES
terday. The troops were at once got in
readiness to move, and troop of both
cavalry and infantry were sent forward to
Sitting Bulls camp to the assistance of
the small force dispatched with the In
dian police.
Soldiers Sent Forward.
Last night four companies of soldiers left
Fort Lincoln for Grand river TO head off
any attempted outbreak, and company
from Keogh left Dickinson Sunday after
noon for point further west, the plan be-
ing to completely surround the Indians.
1t is not believed that Bulls death will
result in further disaster, as the leading
chiefs at the agency were against him.
The Fight Still Going On.
A courier who arrived last night at Fort
Yates says that the fight was still in pro-
gress at Sitting Bulls old camp on Grand
river between the Indian police and cav
airy and the hostile Sioux The Indians
are fighting from cover, and apparently
are prepared to make desperate struggle.

THE NINETY DAYs PAUPGR PEN.
BION BILL.


The pauper pension bill which pro
poses 10 pension men NJ the rate of 90

aud are now willing 10 prove them
selves paupers, viii doubtless do
good In two ways, First II will take q
big chunk out Of the surplus, and SEC
ond, IL viii relieve some want and dis.
tress among q very unfortunate class.
The bill, however, taken on the whole,
is on the wrong principle, and this iS
why II is very generally opposed by a
class Of soldiers, who are known as
veterans.
The bill reverses all former prec.
edents on the theory OF pensions.
Heretofore pensions have been grant
cd on q basis Of wounds received In

Now pensions are TO be granted to
men, who rendered no service In the
war, and who have become paupers

Heretofore pensions were granted
for services TO the country and the pen
sion roll was q roll Of honor.
Now pensions are to be granted TO
men who served only 30 days, who
we're not injured In the service, and
who are paupers, through misfortune,
or loose habits, or lazness, The pres
ent bill has q tendency to humiliate
every true soldier and to place every
veteran, who was disabled and wound

CONGRESSMAN EwART, Of North
Carolina, deserves the thanks Of every
honest American citizen for his bold
and noble opposition TO the Revolu-
tionary Election bill. Mr.. Ewart, who
is a Republican, began his remarks on
saturday by saying that he well knew
Che penalty he would have to pay for
his speech and vote. Then he added
these memorable declarations: "Unfor-
tunately, politics has come to such a
pass that under the rule Of King eau.
Gus men vote for measures that, deep
down in their hearts, they do not be-
lieve in. They know, deep down in
their hearts, that this is as damnable
and vicious a piece Of legislation az
ever was put on the statute books. AS
to the negroes political rights-speak.
Ing for my own State-no Republican
in the State, white or black, is prevent
ed from casting his vote. The elections
there are absolutely fair"

A CLAIM AaHNT's BILL.

The Toledo Blade, the leading Re-
publican paper of N. w. Ohio, takes
about the same view Of the pauper
pension law that we do, but is more
guarded In Its views. IL comedies that
II is q claim agents bill, and 80 passed
as TO make bigmoney for the vast army
Of claim agents. We quote from the
Blade editorial. "As IL now is, the duty
of determining the degree Of disability
devolves upon the pension Office. The
secretary Of the Interior is TO prescribe
the necessary rules and regulations for
deciding this matter, and the conse-
quent amount Of pension; and right
here the opportunity comes tn of the
pension attorney and olaim agent.
These gentlemen will represent to the
applicant that they can probably get q
higher rate Of pension than he could
get by himself-that where he alone
could obtain but q SO Ia month, they can
procure for him SS 10 Sl2. And the
result win be that they will reap a
harvest. Had Congress fixed but one
rate, the matter of application would
have been so simple that a claim agent
would not be needed, and somewhere
between S9,50OOO0 or S3,0O00O0 in the
aggregate would be saved the needy
veterans.
