THE INDIAN WAR.
The Seventh Cavalry Recaptues

Many Hostile Indians I'm Route for tle
Agencies, and the Probability Is
That the Troubles Are
Now Over.
A SUCCESSFUL CHASE

PISE RIDGE, ). d., Dec. 29.-Bic Foot
and his band Of hostiles have been CAPT
ured by the Seventh Cavalry. under
Major Whitesides. The capture WIS
made on Porcupine creek without col
fict. All the other Indians in the Bad
Lands have decided to come in, and the
probabilities are that the trouble 5
ended. Big FOot's band consisted #
100 men and $50 women and children.
This disposes of the hostile elemenl,
and it now seems certain that all are
coming IN. The camp in the Bad Lanes
is now deserted.
RAPID CITY, 5. d., Dec. 29.-General
Miles has just received dispatch from
General Brooke stating that Major
lYhiteside had captured Big Foots
camp General Miles expresses the
opinion that the outfit will not
again escape the military. The Indians
that took refuge IN the Businesses
of the Bad Lands, failing TO receive
aid from Sitting Bun and seeing them
selves surrounded by troop, with figh.
TO the death or starvation confronting
them. yielded to the solici atoms of the
friendlies and are slowly moving into
the agency. Miles scou and caval-
ry are in possessiC of their
natural strongholds. Thus, by the
aid of the railroad and telegraph and
the unprecedented quick movement of
troops around and all over the reserva-
tions, the hostiles find themselves CON
fronted at every point by troops and at
last it dawns upon the savage mind that
a further contest wita the forces Of
civilization IS too unequal and can not
prevail Miles headquarters will be in
the saddle after to-day. He viii pro-
badly start this morning for Pine
Ridge through the reservation. via the
Bad Lands, with an escort of scouts and
the Sixth Cavalry.
OMAHA, Neb, Dee. 20. General
Miles advices of Friday evening that
the hostiles in the Bad Lands had
listened to the logic and persuasion Of
General Brooke's Ogalla and Brule
peace commissioners, and were NOV
ing toward Pine Ridge, were confirmed
by General Brooke's dispatches Satur-
day. The whole body of braves,
squaws and papooses of the Brules,
Cheyennes and Northern Indians who
have been enjoying several weeks out
ing at the famous terrace or wall camps
in the Bad Lands, killing and smoking
beef, stealing horses and engaging in
other healthful and exciting pastimes,
are now en- route to the hospitable
agency at Pine Ridge

CARLISLE. Mimi, Dec. ga terrible
tragedy occurred Saturday night at the
house of Henry Reher, two miles from
here. Reher came home about 9 o'clock
from Elizabeth, where he ran a shoe
shop, and after some pleasantly ABOUT
Christmas presents drew two revolvers
and began shooting at his wife, son and
three daughters. He hit his son twice
in the arm and stabbed him in the back
with a carving knife as the lad was try
ing to escape from the house. The light
went out in the midst Of the shooting
and the daughters got outside and hid
themselves, one Of them with a bullet
wound in her shoulder.
Reher then turned on his wife and
stabbed her repeatedly. Afterward he
went in search of his daughters, and
not finding them came back to the
house. His wife had crawled away,
but he followed her and stabbed her
again and again. Finally he returned
to the house and hanged himself 10 a
beam, at the same time putting bullet
into his head.
The son managed TO get to a neigh
boris house two miles away and gave
the alarm. When the neighbors arrived
they found Reher dead, his wife just
dying and the three daughters still hid
ing Physicians were summoned and
dressed the wounds of the injured.
Henry Reher, the son, win probably die
from his wounds and loss of blood. The
cause of the tragedy is not known.
