viii Wipe Out Mrs. Lo

ST. LOUIS, Mo-, September o.
Sensational reports have been re-
ceived here from Moulton, Idaho, to
the effect that the settlers within
fifty miles had organized for the pur-
pose of wiping out of existence the
Nez Perces Indians, who for month
past have distinguished themselves
by burning towns, scalpIng innocents
aud outragipg defenseless women.
Several days ago over 800 were camp
ed near Mullen. The band was COM
posed of those who took part in the
Nez Perces massacre of 1877, and were
campe6 near the scene ofthe first out
rage of that year. They had 400 pom
les, many squaws and papOoses, and
several painted warriors. They claim
that the whites have no right to that
country and requested them to leave,
as that was their camping ground
before they were removed to the re-
servation to Lapipoe not far from
Lewistown. The settlers in Comas
Prairie, in north Idado where in 1877
the greatest depredations were COM
mitted, fearing another uprising
might occur have now organized and
the first unfavorable report that
reaches them W i'll put an end to any
further depredations on the part of
Indians.
