INTO THE SIOUX LANDS.
Thousands OF Excited boomers Now on tho
sioux Lands Selecting Claims.

Al Chamberlain, 5. d., every incoming
train il heavily loaded with settlers bound
for the reservation. and the stream Of
humanity crossing the river Is almost con-
tinuous. Several thousand have already se.
lected claims and begun the erection OF
homes. The new arrivals are forced TO 20
farther into the interior On the town site
opposite this city the saw and hammer were
pled diligently day and night, and several
hundred buildings OF temporary nature
dot the prairie. stocks OF lumber and pro-
visions are being carried over aud many
business houses will very soon be In
running order. Agent Anderson has ceased
10 attempt 10 remove settlers, having re-
ceived instructions from Washington. but
he Is determined 10 guard the interest OF the
Indians entrusted 10 his care and he says
that III all the buildings erected by settlers
on lands died upon by Indians prior TO the
issuing OF the proclamation are not removed
by sunset he will burn every one OF them TO
the ground. The nearest approach 10 blood
shed yet reported was the drawing of re-
volyer on an Indian policeman by an ex-
cited settler when an attempt was made 10
obstruct his entrance into the reservation.
The only thing that prevented the settler
resorting 20 extremes was the yielding OF
the police or there certainly would have
been a shooting array.
one interesting event was the arrival OF a
mixed train with a number Of fat cars abso-
lutely packed with settlers. A special train
arrived containing more than i've hundred
persons, and reports are being received from
innumerable localities OF the forming OF col
onies to start at once for the reservation.
The people have been disappointed 30 often
regarding the opening OF the reservation
that they have been a little conservative,
and the rush a week hence promises TO be
greater even than IL il now. The influx will
increase from day to day. The Indians at
Lower Brule. which agency contains about
two thousand red men, are in the best OF
humor and ENJOY hugely the incessant strife
between the whites for possession OF lands
coded by them. The agency is on the bot
tom where the great struggle Is gong ON
for possession, to be used for town site pur-
poses.
