The Chippewas Got it Too.

MINNEAPOLIS, Mimi, Jan. "a special
to the Tribune from Ashland, Wis, says:
Chippcwas, the old deadly enemies of the
Sioux, have forsaken the traditions of early
days and joined in the ghost dance Of the
Sioux. Last night a delegation of over fifty
Indians arrived from the surrounding
reservations and now the dance has com
menced and is continued night and day.
The excitement is interse and mary of the
Chippewas who are working in the
woods are contributing to the sup
port of the dancers. The dance is held
at the Bad river, near here. Your
correspondent witnessed one night Of the
hideous proceedings. II differs from the
Sioux dance, rs they do not believe in any
coming of the Messiah. They are atheists
in their belief. Among the dancers are
many Well-rducattd Indians, who say that
whoever joins the dance will have plenty
to eat and will never be sick; will be proof
against the white mans bullet and enjoy a
paradise on earth. The white man is to be
made into a fish and driven back and
across the Atlantic ocean by the Great
Spirit. They do not believe at all in any
human agency. 1t is this that Quirts the
alarm felt by TIE settlers around here.
Some kept dancing for "a hours without
stopping for food or rest. Their endurance
is phenomenal.

ST. PAUL, Jan. 9.-The work of choosing
officers in the house was completed at the
morning session, and after the members
selected their seats, the house adjourned
till Tuesday afternoon. The governors
message is to be read on Wednesday morn
ing. The senate devoted the morning and
afternoon to consideration of the report of
the committee IN committees. The repub-
llcans claimed they were unfairly treated
in not having even a full minority repre-
sentation on important committees and
tried to have some changes made in
the makeup OF the committees. This
failed, and when, late in the afternoon, the
members of the committees were to be
named, the republicans told the combine
that the latter had chosen a number of
members on the committees from each par
ty and they would leave them to name the
individuals as well. A number of senators
refused to serve when appointed on com
mittees and it remains to be seen how
many of the republicans will serve.

CHICAGO, Jan. 9.-An evening paper
says: "The collapse OF this gigantic bust
ness combination, SO far as can be learned,
is TO be attributed to the secession of the

dividnal companies were not satisfied with
the line of policy mapped out by a MAORI

prices on farmers and the consolidation Of
the interest of supply houses to the disad-
vantage of their customers, and they were
SO rebellious at yesterdays meeting of the

had determined to withdraw from the
combination, cut prices and annihilate
those who remained steadfast in their pur-
pose to bleed the farmers. Merry war is
now in prospect. 1t is each firm for itself,
