Indian Stronghold IN the Bad Lands to
Ec attacked Soon.
CAMP ON CHEYENNE RIVER, via Cour-
ier to Rapid City, S. D.. Dec. A.-The
prospects of an early cessation of hostil-
tiles, at least in one section, is now al
most certain. That there will have to
be a fight with the ones in the strong
holds in tie Bad Lands is also certain.
Two hundred and forty-four of Sitting
Bulls followers have surrendered at
Fort Yates and Fort Bennett. Col.
Sumner has rounded up $50 Of Big
Foot's people on the Cheyenne river.
and will either bring them into our
camp or Fort Meade. Col. Merriam is
following up the stragglers from Humps
camp, who have broken through the
Gordon and are supposed to have joined
those in the Bad Lands. A report was
circulated that the Hon. M. II. Day,
aide to the governor, while returning
from this camp was
Ambusllsd and Seriously Wounded,
If not killed, by Indians near Phinney's
IanCn, ON Datlle creek. luis report,
although from reliable source, lacks
confirmation. In all probability the
attack will be made on the Indian
stronghold some time this week. The
majority of the outlying troops are now
concentrating along the Cheyenne river,
and word is daily expected to be given
for the attack. There are large num-
Der of renegade Indiana still at large,
who are depredating and
ItobbinG Deserted Ranches.
A rancher has brought news that In
dians had set fire to a ranch belonging
to man named Mccormick. Troops
We're Immediately sent out and found
nothing but IL heap of smouldering ashes.
The Indians had taken everything of
value, had burned tons of hay and had
killed nine beeves. Mccormick and
family had left the ranch some few
days ago. A courier soldier who was
carving dispatches to Rapid City, on
his return camped under some trees.
During the night Indians stole his horse,
carbine and pistol, and the soldier had
to walk forty miles to camp.

Electricity in tho French Navy.

The French minister of marine has de-
cided that every military port shall send
to Paris two foremen and two working
electricians to study the various systems
of electric lighting. A further evidence
of the extent to which tho government
of France is recognizing the Importance
of providing its navy with the fullest
possible instruction in electrical matters
is afforded by tho fact that lectures on
the theory and use of electricity and its
employment for naval purposes are being
given ut the Ercst observatory, and they
will be continued for four months. hs.-New

NO COMPROMISE NOW.
SILVER SENATORS WILL DEMAND
FREE COINAGE OR NOTHING.

Said That They Will Unite With DEM
ocrats for the Passage of Such Il Meas
ure---Judg: Brown, of Michigan, Nom-
mated for Associate Justice.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 2S.-It is expected
that the action of the senate finance
committee in substituting the provision
for 2O0,00O,00O 2 per cent. bonds to
take the place of the fourth section of
the caucus financial bill, which provides
for the purchase of silver to replace
bank notes retired, will consolidate the
silver forces and it is liable to result in
the adoption of a free coinage bill. For
the past two days the silver Republicans
have been divided, some mistrusting
and some having confluence in their
Eastern anti-silver associates.
Senator Stewart, speaking of the mat
ter, said that the bill as amended is de-
signed merely to rehabilitate the na-
tional banks and that the silver men
had no interest in it. The purchase of
the surplus silver held by pool was
not matter in which the advocates Of
free coinage were interested
Probably Combine With Democrats.
All the Republican silver men are in
anindependent frame of mind, and the
indications are that there will be COM
bination between them and the Dem
ocrats who agree with them. The mat.
ter again seems to be at crisis. The
concilatory disposition on both sides is
no longer apparent. The silver men
have decided to effect combination,
and expect to agree upon free coin
age bill, with which they will displaco
the election bill, next week. The issue
seems to have been made by the neces-
sity for the leaders to either yield or
else follow their own inclinations and
let the fight come. On both sides of the
financial question the time for tempor-
izing is regarded as about at al end.

Pierre Paul, Latasee, Antley and Pas

hanged for the murder of Mrs. Phoebe

standing the report of the noted alienist,
DR.. Forbes Winslow, to the effect that
the woman was subject to epileptic fits,
and might have killed Mrs. Hogg while
in that condition, Home Secretary
Matthews decided not to interfere with
the course Of justice. The hanging
passed off without incident, the unhappy
woman dying almost instantly. Ac-
cording to English law she will be

lie Ia a Piute Famed 0uectize Ow. and
Lives In Ncvadu.
PORTLAND, Ore, Dec. 23.-The we'll
known Indian scout A. A. Chapman,
has just returned here from Nevada,
where he Went i'll November for the
purpose Of interviewing the so-called
Messiah. He first went to Walkers
Lake, New, and talked with the Piutes,
who told him the Messiah had been re-
ceiving calls from all the tribes in the
West. Chapman had an interview with
the Messiah at the west fork of the
Walker river, i'll Nevada Chapman
says the Messiah
Gave His Name as "Queetize Ow."
He is full-blooded Piute. He spoke
freely of his call to preach. His first
experience with tho Almighty was one
afternoon while hunting. Hearing a
noise he started to find its cause, when
he was thrown to the ground by some
unseen power. Hewas taken to heaven
and there saw all the whites and Indians
that had lived and died upon tho earth.
He was subsequently brought to the
same spot where he had fallen dead.
God Told Him He Wanted Him
(Queetize Ow) to undertake the mission
of reforming the earth, and he set out
at once to perform the mission. He
taught the Indians that they should
work and avoid fighting, except in self
defense. Last summer the Indians told
him that unless it rained soon the crops
would fail. He told them to go home
and in three days an abundance of rain
fell. Queetize Ow got his ideas from a
religious family with whom he lived.
Chapman thinks Queetize only Indirectly
to blame for the Indian uprising, and
that the doctrine imbued the Indians
with more independent spirit to resist
their wrongs.
And One from Iowa.
PINE RIDGE AGENCY, S. D., Dec. A.-
The police have arrested the Messiah
down in Red Clouds camp. When they
pulled the white blanket off they found
an intelligent but harmless crank, A. G.
Hopkins by name, from Nashua, Iowa.

of the day in putting the finishing
touches to the naval appropriation bill.
The bill, as completed, carries appro-
priations aggregating $3O,OO0,0OO in
round numbers, OF $3,000,0OO less than
the estimates. The subcommittee that
prepared the bill made no provision for
new vessels, but the full committee in.
serted a provision for the construction
OF q triple screw steel protected cruiser
of 1850 tons, to cost s275,0oo without
armament. The construction of a ves-
sci of this character was recommended
by Secretary Tracy.
An interesting item in the bill pro-
vides for equipment and arms for naval
militia in various states, $s5, 1000 being
appropriated for the purpose. Another
provision allows the secretary of the
navy to use 100000 of the 81 100000

stroy them. The counterfeits have an

WHERE WATER AB0UNDS.
Another Artesian Experiment Possible
Interest of the People in the Sub
ject-Mr. Reaser's Well.

Several citizens have expressed will
ingness to unite with number in sub
scriblng 800 each toward sinking an ex-
perimental artesian we'll in the plaza.
They argue that if flowing well can be
found anywhere in this locality that place
is in the plaza, which is near enough to
the Cienega to be on line with the flow
from the mountain sources that feed the
springs there.
In this connection it may be encour-
aging to know that Mr.. Reaser has re-
Gently sunk we'll on Don Casper avenue
which is something Of novelty. 1t is
about eight feet in depth. At about six
and one-half feet the water rolled in at
such rate that it was impossible to go
more than about twenty inches below
the vein, and the water raised in the well
some three feet above vein, where it now
stands. Being only about twenty feet
from the river, Mr.. Reaser naturally ex-
pected the water to flow in from the river
bed, but instead it comes from the oppo-
site direction, which is northeast. In
fact, the water now stands fully two feet
above the river bed, showing plainly that
its source is from the mountains north
east of the city.
From this and other cases that might
be instanced, the surface about Santa
Fe is underlaid with formation that
carries an inexhaustble supply of water.
The foothills east and northeast of the
valley also are known to produce water
wherever tapped. The source of this is
unquestionably the lakes and streams in
the mountains, high above the talest
spire in town, and it does seem that if
artesian water can be found anywhere in
the country at no point are all the surface
indications more favorable than here.
