small raiding parties are preparing
to start from his camp. There were
no disquieting developments at Pine
Ridge today. The issue Of rations
goes on. Many Of the dancers are
coming In for them and are treated
thu same as the Others.
Scouts who arrived this evening
report that the ghost dancers have
concentrated their forces and to-
morrow Little Wound will ride In
for q conference with the agent and
General Brooke. Until yesterday q
large percentage u the Cheyenne
Indians were camped with Red
Cloud, but they have moved away
from his camp and established their
own. This action and the willing
ness Of the Cheyennes TO enlist M
scouts engendered . bitter feeling
between the two tribes and the al
lance of the Cheyennes with the
military, which Is taking place, Ii
likely to make the Sioux even more
bitter toward the soldiers than they
have been.
The ranches which the Rosebud
Indians have been raiding were
vacated by the occupants when the
exodus Of settlers occurred two weeks
ago. There is no danger Of any loss
OF life. Colonel Wheaton arrived
today with several companies Of in
fantry, and he and General Brooke
had long consultation, the purpoTt
of which Is not learned.
SITTING BULL WILL NOT YIELD.
MISSEAPoLrs. Nov. 25. - The
7ribtmes Standing Rock special
says: Two scouts returned today to
Fort Yates from n visit 10 Sitting
Bulls camp. They found Bull anu
his adherents very ugly. He told
them he understood the soldiers
were coming TO take him, but he had
his runners out and on the first
news Of soldiers he and his people
would leave. They have abandoned
the white mems houses, said he,
and will not return 10 them again.
The superstition here Is that, II
Sitting Bull hears Of serious trouble
at Pine Ridge or the military at
tempts to take him, he and his fol-
lowers will make at once for the
lower agencies, thereby declaring
war.
THE SIXTH CAVALRY READY.
ALBUQUERQUE, n. NJ, Nov. 2s.-

wiugate, has issued orders 10 get

portation 10 South Dakota. The

dc road here TO have q special train
ready TO leave tonight.

MISNEAPoLIs. Nov. Is. - The
7ri6une's special from Pierre sayt:
Everything Is quiet ut the Chey-
enne agency. At a hostile camp on
Cherry Creek, however, yesterday,
several turbulent Indians captured

TO be slaughtered for their monthly
rations and, taking them to their
| village, issued them to suit them
selves. The white men in charge
dared make no resistance.
