Hurrying TO the Scene.
MINNEAPOLIS. Mimi, Nov. ia Man
dan SPECIAL to The Tribune says; Nearly
100 settlers were on train last night from
West End county going to Bismarck for
safety. At Glenullen, forty miles west,
citizens turned out en- masse, throwing up
circular breastworks by moonlight large
enough TO get into for protection. A supply
of rifles were sent to each settlement in
the county. A telegram received by cor
respondent from New Salem stated that
80 Indians are camped south Of that point
and the people are clamoring for guns and
powder. A number of determined men,
bent on driving out OF the town the Indians
camped here, have deferred action, on the
Indians promising TO be peaceable Every
house in town is full to overfiowing with
refugees from country districts.
Intense excitement prevails in the coun-
try, settlers are prepared TO believe any
thing about Indians because of their queer
actions lately. Several families came in
today afoot distance of twenty miles and
over, too poor to own wagons. In town
somewhat less tension exists owing to the
receipt of 800 guns from the state govern
ment, and the fact that a company OF
soldiers have just arrived from fort Tot
ten. There arc 200 armed Indians in town,
but citizens are armed, too, and patrols
are out. A date will be fixed by com
mittee Of citizens, and Indian agents noti-
fed that after that date any Indian found
in this county without pass from an
agent will be killed on sight The popu-
lation is thoroughly aroused, and although
conservative men are doing their best to
quiet the angry populace, there is every
reason to believe that unless the govern
ment takes immediate steps to increase
the force Of soldiers here at Fort Lincoln,
every Indian coming into the county will
be killed

Carl schurz IN Commerce.

Hon. Carl Schurz, who spoke next, said
that one sided international trade was
contradiction TO itself There must be a
mutual exchange America has much to
sell, and could feed her commerce If given
a chance The speaker touched lightly on
the relations existing between the tariff
and the foreign commerce of America, and
then said that, as the tariff enhances the
price of things the manufacturer has to
use in the production of his finished arti-
Gle, it enhances the cost of production and
the price the manufacturer must ask, and
puts the manufactured goods at a disad-
vantage in the foreign market, renders
them unfit for expectation and thus mar
rows and cripples the foreign commerce
The remedy, he said, consists in such re-
vision of the tariff as will deliver the
American manufacturing industries OF
those artificial burdens which increase the
cost of the things they have to use in prod
uction. He made an eloquent appeal for
the merchant marine, claiming that free
dom to buy and freedom TO build ships
would send the Stars and Stripes agair
over all Europe.
