fact that the matter has again and

the Indian department at Washing

b 'rak Of the Cheyennss, are breaking
away Singly or in small parties and
joining the Cheysnnes. ready for
whatever desiltry may be on the pro-
gram.
Another noticeable festure IL that
the Cheyenne bucks are scattered In
small parties, while the women.
children and old men are coDgregated
at the mission in larger numbers
than ever before. On Sunday last
Agent Upshaw sent messenger to
S,m O'Connril at Ashland, asking II
there were any bucks there. This
would indicate that they were missing
at the agency. They were not at
Ashland or the Mission, but two
men-Scott's foreman Henderson and
another whose name j. not recalled
while separately riding the country
about that time, each came unexpect-
edly upon hand Of bucks secluded,
one in the brush and the other in the
timber. In both camps the Indians
we're heavily armed and showed no
disposition TO friendly intercourse
with the white men, who speedily
withdrew.
Men who were never alarmed be-
fire now freely confess the fear that
serious trouble IL impending and may
be precir listed at any moment. The
unprotected state Of the white settlers
and cav boys combines IT, make the
situation doubly serious, As they are at
present totally unable to protect
themselves. To remedy this a. quick.
ly rs possible, Sheriff Jones last night
sent a telegram TO Governor Toole. de-
