INDIANS IN BATTLE
Rivalry Between Two Strike and
Short Bull.
Bloody Encounter I'm the Hostile
Camp, a Score or More Bucks
Being Killed.

PINE RIpaE AGENCY, 3. D., Dec. Ia
Tired of waiting for the soldiers to sono
and get killed, the Indians in the bad
lands have begun fighting among them.
selves.
This nows was brought in last night
by both government scouts and friendly
Indians and is reliable.
The noble red man has been spelling
for a fight for weeks, looking anxiously
for the gentle blue coat and buffalo SOL
der to come and have theirgore spilled.
Waiting bred disputes, and yesterday a
battle took place in the amphitheaterof
Grass Valley. Two Strike and his fol-
lowers circled around Short Bull and his
followers all the forenoon, actively skir-
| mishing. each leader bound that his
supremacy as high muck-a-muck Of the
whole gang should be acknowledged.
The killed are reported all the way
from twenty 10 forty. AS the scouts
and ~friendlies had TO escape during the
confusion the result OF the fight is not
known. General Brooke sent Little Bat
ard five other Indians back with old
Two Strike under the agreement made
in the council that one should return
each day and report the progress of the
reds in coming in. Not one Of these
men has returned, but are held close
! prisoners of war. 1t is reportedl that
! Little Bat has been killed, but the re-
port is not verified. Bat belongs to Wy
oming, and is well known as a govern
ment scout and is no safer among the
Indians than a white man would be.
The Indians promised General Brooke
hat they would come in at once and
that they represented all parties camped
in tho bad lands. The general tele-
graphed this east, implying that it en-
ded the war. lie was told by many who
knew the Indian that he was being
fooled, but he refused to listen to a
word that did not accord with his hopes
and plans, The Indian In the ear
while proceeded with his dances,
strengthened his battle ground, filled
up the commisIary department, received
re-enforcements from other agencies,
and now laughs at the white
mans way OF pushing a cam
his hand in, and TO sec which chief
shall have the honor Of leading their
forces in case the white chiefs by some
mistake should visit the bad lands.
The settlers along the Cheyenne river
appreciate the condition OF affairs and
arc figuring how much apiece their
grandchildren will get for the cattle
they are losing daily. General Brooke
has information from his scouts that
the Indians near White river have
turned loose their stolen stock and are
coming in. Colonel Sumner reports
quite a large number of Indians in his
vicinity who are willing to obey his or
ders. These belong to Big Foots fol-
lowing, and others located about the
the southwestern part OF Cheyenne
river reservation.

NBw YORK, Dec. l3.-Albert II.
Smith, the New York broker who
ruined his partners by raising" the
face value Of stock certificates to a to-
tai of $500, 600, and who. a few days
ago, was sentenced to seventeen years
Imprisonment for his crime, has been
assigned to work in the laundry OF Sing
Sing pe%nitentiary, and is industriously
engaged from 6 a. ~. until 6 p. m. in
operating upon the outer and under
clothing OF his fellow prisoners. BY
good behavior he can shorten his term
TO ten years and six months, and as he
celebrates his 46th birthday next week
he will be able TO celebrate his 5sth
when he again mingles with the outer
world. Prior to the discovery
OF his misdeeds, and which
was fastened by the recent panic
in stocks in Wall street, Smith was re-
garded as a model citizen, so far as
morality is concerned, and a solid citi-
zen In a financial sense. Even his most
intimate friends rated him as being
worth not less than a million dollars.
lie vas the originator and first presi-
dent of the Brooklyn Riding and Driv-
ing club and, as its promoter, became
not only prominent, but popular So
cially. There was not a family Of
wealth or influence In Brooklyn that
was not proud to be on terms OF calling
acquaintance with the Smith household.
For a year past he had been engaged in
the construction OF a magnificent man
sion near Prospect park, and which, ac-
cording to the plans, would have been
the finest private residence yet erected
in the city OF churches. 1t was almost
completed whom the expose came, and
it is likely to remain in its unfinished
condition for some time as a monument
Of his criminality.

New YORK, Dec. 13.-Dr. Talmage is
not one OF those people who are croak-
ing about the possibility of a panic, and
who are hunting up well worn and well
fingered almanacs to bear testimony TO
the fact that the coming gear is one of a
cycle which is bound to bring financial
disaster TO the nation. In an article
which the eminent Brooklyn divine has
just written for the Ladies' Home Jour
nal, he takes issue, in no uncertain
tones, with the prophets OF evil, and
says en- phatically that he believes there
are better and brighter times than ever
on the threshold for the people of the
United States. Says the eminent pas
tor OF the T~abernacle: The land is
full Of prophets, and / have as
much right to ~prophesy as any one. j
~prophesy that we are coming toward the
greatest temporal prosperity we have
ever witnessed in this country. Me-
chanics are going TO have higher wages,
capitalists are going to have larger div
idends, factories, that are now closed,
are going to run day and night to meet
demands, stores are going TO be crowded
with customers, jostling each other and
impatient to get waited on. Amid the
rapid strides OF business. attorneys will
be called on to interpret LOCALITIES, and
merchants overworked, will want medi-
cal attendance; and the churches are
going TO be abundant with men and wo-

SIouX FALLS, ;. d., Dec. l3.-All of
the South Dakota members Of the Joint
commission for the two Dakotas have
returned from Bismarck, where they
attended the last and final session Of
the commission. All claims we're dis
posed of n way or another and the re-
port Of tho commission will be ready for
the governor next week. The amount
settled upon as due North Dakota by
her southern neighbor was, in round
numbers, S65, 600, which includes $43,-
900 allowed by the former joint COM
mission. There are 1852, coo in
outstanding territorial warrants,
including sig. 600 interest. half of
which belongs to each state. In the
final settlement reached South Dakota
assumes her own share, ISL 600, and
500, GOO Of North Dakota's share, leav-
ing $4,000 as a balance In favor Of
South Dakota If she takes up all the
territorial warrants outstanding and
issues bonds in their stead, which were
the terms Of tse settlement, North Da-
kota agreeing TO pay the $40, 900 differ
ence in cash.
Many Individual claims were allowed
by the commission at its last session,
as vas the claim Of the citizens
Of Madison, who advanced SIS, 900 to
complete the structure of the state
normal school, for which IN appro-
priation had been made by the terri
tory, but fell short of the amount neces-
sary to complete the building. The
Madison claim was allowed at $11, 900,
the noun Of the bonds issued by the
city OF Madison TO protect the citizens
who had come to the assistance of the
board CT trustees.
The South Dakota commissioners re-
ceived generous treatment from the
members Of North Dakota. Everything
was arranged in the most friendly man
ner and ad justed to the satisfaction Of
every member Of the joint commission.
In fact, the commissioners OF North
Dakota gave the benefit Of many doubt
ful questions TO South Dakota, which
will accrue to the latteF's advantage to
