tanning 2,3O7, 700 acres (of which 1882, sos
must be purchased, lying in six different cOun-

Of Herkimer County from being included in the

Red Cloud, lie Dog and Little Hawk,

Greatly Alarmed.
BOISE Cry, Idaho, Jan. 7.-Advices
from Pocatello state that the Indians on
the Fort Hall reserve have been dane
ing, and 200, in war paint, have taken
to the mountains with arms, causing
great excitement. Governor Wiley has
been asked to order the militia to
Pocatello, and probably company
OF United States cavalry at Boise bar
racks will be sent there. The Indians
on the reserve number 1900 or 1900,
more than half OF whom are Bannocks,
who caused prolonged war twelve years
ago. The people at Pocatello have al
most no arms, and the towns of Black
foot and Eagle Rock are on the border OF
the reserve. The Indians who took to
the mountains are working eastward to-
ward Wyoming. The belief is expressed
that if the Indians OF Pocatello go on
the warpath, they will be joined by the
tribes on the Lemhi reservation, who
number 500, embracing 125 able-bodied
bucks.
