AN ILL-TIMEO CRIME.

The Murder OF Chief by Whites Causes
Big Commotion Among the Sioux.
PINE RIDGE AGENCY, s. D., Jan co.
When the treacherous whites in Bear
Butte County wantonly murdered Old
Few Tails last week and wounded his
squaw they committed an outrage that
came near running General Miles plans
and stampeding 5000 hostiles who are
in camp here, Few Tails was rela-
tive of Young-Man-Afraid of His
Horses, the only hereditary chief in the
Sioux nation and the most powerful
leader among his people. Few Tails
wounded squaw arrived here Sunday
and almost instantly there was d COM
motion in the hostile camp.
The scouts reported the situation to
General Miles, who Immediately seat
runners after Young Man. When that
chief appeared and learned of the in
gratitude of the whites for the heroic
work he had been doing in their behalf
he refused to be pacified and it took all
the diplomacy at the command of Gen
eral Miles to finally win back the good
will of the outraged chief. The situa-
ton has become SO complicated that the
quartermaster has ordered twenty days
additional rations, and the troops that
were eXpested to come to the agency for
n grand review have been ordered to re-
main in camp. The order for rations is
rs heavy as any that has been issued
since the war began.
