Machine Guns in Position for Bombard-
ing the Hostile Camp.
OMAHA, Neb., Jan. 6.-World-Herald
special: The Gordon of troops is draw
ing tighter around the hostiles. This is
shown by the discovery less than a mile
from Pine Ridge of bunch of COWS
shot with arrows. Evidently the Indians
are trying to cut off small body of sol
diers to get arms and ammunition. The
hostiles are on guard night and day.
Fires are being burned at night to pre-
vent any one from escaping from their
camps more especially Red Clouds band:
Gen Miles has sent peace commission
to the hostiles. If they still refuse to
come in their
Camp Will BE Bombarded.
Machine and shell guns are being placed
on all sides of the camp and at the COM
mand murderous fire of hot shells and
canister can be showered into the Indian
camp. This means utter humiliation to
the Indians if the order comes. Gen.
Miles is fast becoming impatient, and if
the Indians do not obey this last order a
bloody battle of determination will then
be begun.

Gratis who rode into power on the great

with Chief Justice Cole, occupied the
speakers desk. The chief justice ad-
ministered the cath of office to each of
the officers in turn, beginning with Gov
ernor Peck and ending with Insurance
Commissioner Root. After being sworn

Precautions Being Taken to Prevent
Their Joining the HostiIes.
WINNIPEG, Man, Jan. 3.-Agents Of
the Indian department in this district
have been instructed by the dominion
kovernmant to keep close watch on the
Canadian Indians to prevent them from
Joining the reds In the American upris-
ing, and those in close proximity to the
United States boundary are being spe-
cially guarded. It is well known that
runners from Sitting Bulls and other
bands have been endeavoring to induce
the Canadian Indians to join them, but,
as far as the Canadian government
agents can learn they have no intention
IF doing so. The reds on this side of the
border had quite enough warfare in
their rebellion under Louis Riel. A few
years ago, and they were pretty well
Eubdued. There peed be MO fear that
she Canadian Indians viii JOIN in the
uprising.

A TEREE-coRNERED AFFAIR.
The Montana Legislature Organizes Tws
Houses, the Same as Last Year.

The Montana Legislature Organizes Two
Houses, the Same as Last Year.
HELENA, Mont, Jan. 5.-The date set
for the meeting of the state legislature,
has arrived, and three bodies of men
met in as many different places and or
ganixed three branches of the Montana
legislature In the senate it was all
easy sailing, as the body stands ten
Democrats and six Republicans. Rut
the trouble over the members from Sill
yer Bow county remains just as it did
last year. Twenty-nine Republicans
met in the hall when State Auditor Kim
ney called the roll, in which
he included the five Republican
contestants from Silver Bow county.
All the Democratic members
of the house, including the five Demo
cratic contestants f. ON Silver Bow, met
in another hall and organized ,v hlti alecting
harry larry -ssssHiisy speaker and full list Of
oincers.
Recognized the Democratic House.
Just after noon the committee from
the Democratic house waited on the SEN
ate and governor with the information
that the house of representatives had or
gan1zed and was ready Tor business.
Governor Toole and the senate each rec
ognized this organization.
The Republican house also sent mes
sage to the senate that it. had organized
and was ready for business. The mes
sage, by vote of 10 to 6, was rejected,
and the clerk was directed to make no
note of it on his minutes.
AS the matter stands now the dead
lock is as complete as it was last year,
when not a law was passed. AS the
Democrats have the senate and the gov
ernor this year, where last year the SEN
ate was tie, they rather have the best
of it now; but if the matter goes to the
supreme court, as it will undoubtedly
do, and if that body follows the preced-
ent set last year, it viii decide in favor
of the legality of the Republican house.

The Militia Called Out.

ST. Louis, Oct. 3l.-A dispatch from
Chattanooga states that Governor
Buchanan has been notified of the
release of convicts at Briceville
and Coal Creek. At 1890
a. m. the governor had called out
the militia, and will take no action in
the matter until this afternoon. The
latest report says l63 convicts were re-
leased at Briceville and 140 at Coal
Creek. The miners have possession of
the telegraph Office at Coal Creek, and
no communication can be had by wire.
Reports from Briceville state that
the stociSadc was surrounded on all
sides by miners powder was placed
under the foundation and the stock
ade destroyed. When the convicts Sc
cured their liberty they offered to help
the liberators in an attack on the Chum-
ely's stockade at Thistle Creek. The
guard at the latter place anticipated
an attack, and when fires were lighted
continued shooting of rifles was kept
up in order to intimidatc the miners.
Later advices say the stockade at
Coal Creek was not burned, but the
doors were battered down and the con-
victs released. The convicts assaulted
the guards and wrested their weapons
from them But little resistance was
offered and no bloodshed occurred.
The affair was so sudden and unex-
pected and so well conducted that it
gives strength to the belief that a
strong and we'll organized secret So
ciety exists among the miners Many
Of the miners have returned to their
homes apd affairs are quieting down
considerably. 1t is not thought that
the militia will be called out.
