SITTING BULLS DEATH.
Complaints Against Agent Mclaughlin
in This Connection

Complaints Against Agent Mclaughlin
in This Connection.
CHICAGO, Jan. 5.-The News says that it is
stated on definite authority that complaints
of serious nature are to be lodged
against Indian Agent Mclaughlin,
who directed the killing of Sitting
Bull. The complaints were Suggested in a
mild way by a number of army officers
whom Mr.. Porter visited. The sequel will
demonstrate the intense feeling which re-
suited from the Sitting Bull affair.
Agent McLaughlin's interference dis
turbed the cherished plans of the depart
ment of the Missouri and fastened if it did
not cause the present trouble.
II is alleged that 9here were
improper motives behind the
killing. The charges against Mclaughlin
and other Indian agents will be preferred
by army officers who are satisfied that the
Indian agents are responsible for the Indian
outbreak. f-
Interviews with number of army off,
GERS are then given. They are of different
tenor, but all agree that Mclaughlin acted
under orders and that the killing Of Sitting
Bull precipitated the recent battles.

whose nephew he was, for he was one
of thenicest young fellows I ever met
and he gave me over adozen different
points in billiards. One day after I

and beckoned me aside and confiden-
ftially whispered. J.
I am not al ways what I seem. I

safe only when have no money in

keep this $500 for me and dole it out
as I want it?'

had three or four reasonable excus es ,
and after telling him that I would
not be responsible for any loss I
locked the envelope in my trunk. 1t
was very bulky, and he had written
on the face of it his name and that it
contained $500.
"The very next day he struck me
for $40, and gavetit to him out of
my own wallet. The day after it
was IS, and the day after that it
was $40. In one week he drew $45
from me, but of course I was protect
! ed and felt easy. The second week he
had drawn $25 when a sad accident
happened. He went into the surf to
battle aud was not seen again. We
found his clothing in the bath house,
but we could not find his body. It
was scarcely known that he was
drowned before five orders of $40
each were presented to me byguests,

me in a way to satisfy me thathe
