1t has been pointed out by David A.
Wells in his Recent Economic Changes"
that owing to the great prosperity of the
nail business from 1881 to 1884, many
establishments increased their capacity,
and some more than doubled it. Many
new mills were built East and West and
the producing power of the country was
nearly doubled; but consumption in
creased by only one-fifth. In this way
the market was overstocked and prices
were forced down in some cases below
the cost of production. The result was
that combination or agreement was
entered into by the manufacturers for
the purpose of restricting production;
in this way prices were again in meas
ure restored.
This is but another instance showing
the tendency Of tariff industries to get
rid of competition by forming trust.
Protection is begged for on the plea
that competition in the home market
will force prices down; but when COM
petition has forced prices down, the
protected manufacturers discover that
competition is bad thing and they
combine to put it down and keep prices

A BATTLE.
Treachery on tho Part of the In
dians Cause a Fight.
Fifty Of the Troops Said to Have Becn
Killed and Wounded, and Over
That Number of Indians
Slain Outright.

A special to the Omaha Bee from
Pine Ridge Agency says: Couricrs from
the Bad Lands who arrived here Mon
day morning announced that bloody
and desperate conflict occurred on Por-
|cupine creek between the United States
troops and the hostilcs. Bright and
early were the troops up in the morn.
ing. At o'clock they were ordered to
be in readiness to move. At
that hour the cavalry and dis
mounted troops were 1nasscd about,
the Indian village, the IIotchkiss guns,
overlooking the camp not fifty yards
away Colonel Forsythe ordered all thel
Indians to come forward away from the.
tents. They came and sat in half
6 .rclc until counted. The dismounteds
,roGps were then t.irowl, ass..isd shert
Company X. Captain Wallace, and
Company B. Captain Yarnum. The
order was then given to twenty Indians
to go and get their guns. Upon return.
ing it was seen that only two guns
were had. A detachment at once
began to search the village
resulting in thirty-eight guns be-
ing found. AS this task was about
completed, the Indians surrounded by
Companies X and B began to move. All
of sudden they threw their hands to
the ground and began firing at the
troops not twenty feet away. The
troops were at a great disadvantage,
fearing shooting of their own com
rades. The Indian men, women
and children then ran to the SOUTH the
battery firing rapidly as they ran. Soon
the mounted troops were after them
shooting them down on every side.
The engagement lasted fully an hour
and half. To the south many took
refuge in a ravinc, from which it was
difficult to dislodge them. 1t is esti-
mated that the soldiers killed and
wounded number about fifty. just
now it is impossible to state the exact
number of dead Indians. There are
many more than fifty, however, killed
outright. The soldiers are shooting the
lnuluHS tlOWu WllcItNCI loull't, ho Htui
ter being given by any one. Captain
Wallace, X troop of cavalry wns killed,
and Lieutenant Garlinton, Of Arctic
fame, was shot through the arm at
the elbow. The troops are still firing
from the camp and pursuing the enemy
in every direction. TO say that it was
most daring feat, 120 Indians attack
ing 500 cavalry, expresses the situation
but family. 1t could only have been in
sanity which prompted such deed. 1t is
doubted that if before night either a
buck or squaw out Of all Of Big Foot's
band will be left to tell the tale of this
days treachery. The members of the
Seventh Cavalry have once more shown
themselves to be heroes in deeds of
daring. Single-handed conflicts We're
seen all over the field. The death of
Captain Wallace causes much regret.
The poor fellow met his death by q
blow on the head from war club.
