eonorted Indian Outbreak.

GREAT FALLS, MONT, December ID.
Indefinite rumors of an Indian out
break at Fort Belknap, which were dis
puted. reached here Sunday. A later
dispatch contains these facts:
Saturday, a Sainaboine Indian named
Big Mouth, was shot and killed oy a
young buck of the same tribe whose
name is not known. The murderer
gathered his friends and fortified a log
cabin nearby. Agent Simons was notl-
fed and proceeded to the seat OF the
trouble with posse. Advancing upon
the cabin they were fired upon by the
occupants. ore horse being killed ana
Simons wounded in the leg. While the
men are now besleged in the cabin the
Indians, about a half dozen in all, say
they will not be captured alive.
Late last night despatch was re-
ceived by Governor Toole from Agent
Simons, reading as follows:
"Send troops at once and notify Sec
rotary of War at Washington"
1t is thought that the excitement has
spread to other Indians. 1t is also re-
ported that several Indians OF the

An Attempt to Kin Hippolyte.

NEW YORK, December lS.-The At
las line steamship Adirondack at this
port to-day from Kingston, Jamaica,
brings confirmation OF the report that
an attempt had been made to kill Presi.
dent Hippolyte OF Hayti. Several OF
the passengers OF the Adirondack stated
that on the day OF sailing, December 8,
a report was current in Kingston that a
conspiracy of reyolutionists had culmi-
mated that morning in an attack upon
Hippolyte while he was walking In his
garden. Several men had concealed
themselves until favorable opportun-
ity presented itself, when they rushed
upon the President He understood
their design as soon as he caught sight
OF them and cried loudly for help. A
number of guards rushed up and caught
the would-be assassins before they had
done any injury. The report was that
the gang had been shot TO death in the
prison yard after short trial. 1t is
supposed that they were In the interests
OF Gen. Manignal and other exiled con-

MR. VANCE 1NrERY1EwED.
He Gives His Views on the Pension
Question.

he OIVe8 MS Vows on the PENSION
Question.
Hon. John L. Vance, of Galipolis,
who is well-known in Wheeling, and
who figured so prominently on Steven
son Day here, was interviewed in Gin
cinnati the other day on the pension
question. He was asked what he
thought about the pension business and
It's abuses. G.
There has undoubtedly been a great
abuse, very great abuse, in that line;
but is it better that the ninety and nine
just ones should be made to suffer be-
cause one unjust one should get in?
No, think not. l read recent edito-
rial upon the alarming increase Of the
pension roll, and there are thousands
who are receiving pensions by fraud,
and thousands upon thousands, no
doubt, who are making good liyings, or
even attaining to completeness, who are
receiving pensions from Uncle Sam and
this keeps the list at the enormous cost
to the government.
"There is no nation on earth that has
ever done or could do what we are do
ing for those who helped save the
union. Across the water the soldier is
a mercenary; but how was it here in
1861? Did our boys hurry off to enlist
because Of that paltry S13 month? No,
indeed, they never even thought for a
moment of that. 1t was patriotism
that impelled them. And 1 tell you
we would not 10 all probability have
had any government to pay these pen
sions to the thousands of worthy ones
If it had not been far those fellows who
dropped everything in 81 and went to
the front.
None of US will begrudge pension to
q man who was disabled in service. But
the trouble is that you find more one
hu=dred-year men, as we fellows who
served four years called the hundred
day men, after pensions than anybody
else. And another thing, we find men
who have gotten along for twenty-seven
years without aid from the Government
or anybody else, now applying for
pensions and getting them. Well, il
they can trace their disabilities to the
war and its exposures, 1 wont say any
thing about that"

what Is Going on in FESTIVE Circles About
Town.

e-sA Town.
The home of DIR. and Mrs. S. L. Jep-
son, on Twelfth street, last night, was
the scene of a joyous gathering, the al
fair being in the nature OF a dancing
party given by Miss Bessie Jepson, In
honor Of her accomplished visitor, MISS
Hunt, of Cleveland. There were quite
a large number of guests present, ana
many were arrayed in striking evening
toilets, forming most picturesque
scene. An order Of fifteen dances was
discussed, Killmyer furnishing the
music. At intermission palataole
lunch was served. 1t was one OF tne
prettiest parties Of the season.
The Chancel Chapter of st. Luke's P.
E. Church, held avery successful bazaar
last night. Notwithstanding the in
clement weather the old Chapel on
Broadway was crowded with purchas-
ers who invested literally in the for
midable array of useful aud pretty hol-
iday nicknacks made by deft and will
ing hands. II anything remained IN
sold from last night the bazaar will be
continued.
Perhaps one OF the most UNIQUE
clubs that has existed In Little Wash
ington for long time is one recently
organized and known as the las Ion
Like 1t Club" A number of the lead
ing society people Of the town compose
this club. During the present season
each member will entertain the other
memb ers at regular intervals. One odd
feature of the organization is that the
bill of fare for the luncheon is confined
to three dishes. This is to prevent any
rivalry in the matter of allowing one
member to provide more elegant
lunch than some others, thus doing
away with all rivalry.
The reception and banquet at the
Hanes House at Moundsville last night,
was a most successful affair, and all
present had delightful time. There
were about thirty-fve couples In attend
ance. Music was furnished by the
Opera House orchestra.

N. Rowan and Billy Smith.
s}losls OF agreement were signed In
this .,P9last night for a twenty round
glove contest. Marquis of Queensbury
revised rules, teur ounce gloves, be-
tween Jimmy" Rowan, the well known
Steubenville feather weight, and BILLY"
Smith, OF Chicago, Ill. Smith was rep
resented by his manager, Phil Lewis
The match is for 5000 side, and is to
take place on December p. Both men
are to be weighed at the ring She and
if either weighs more than l20 pounds
he is to forfeit 500 to the other. A
forfeit Of 500 on each side, has been
placed in the hands Of the stakeholder,
Bob Miller. The contestants will try
to arrange to have the match in this
city, provided the law does not
interfere. They have received an offer
from the Parkersburg Athletic club,
but Rowan would prefer to fight here,
If arrangements can be made, as many
of his SteubenVille friends would come
down.
The match made last night is the out
growth of a challenge by Smith, in the
Parkersburg Sentinel, which was &C.
copied by Rowan. The latter says the
match is bona fide, although ne has
never seen Smith. Smith, he says, may
be ringer" but he is ready to meet
him anyhow, provided he does not
outweigh him.
Rowan has a good record. He has
fought eighteen ring contests, and has
been defeated but once, and then on a
foul. He says he followed Ike Weir,
the Belfast Spider, to Boston for the
purpose of trying to arrange match,
but did not succeed. About year ago
he stood up for fourteen rounds before
"Jack" McAuliffe, the champion feath-
erweght, who failed to knock him out
in that time, Notwithstanding the fact
that Rowan had no training.

Reduction.

Tonnage Mon at the Riverside Notified of
Reduction.
The annual wage agreement between
the officers of the Riverside Iron Works
and the employees Of the different de-
partments goes into effect on January
lst. The Homestead strike resulting in
q victory for the Carnegie's, has practi-
cally fixed the wages to be paid in the
iron industry, since other concerns can
not pay higher wages and compete with
that firm. The roughers, heaters,
catchers, all of the tonnage men
at the Riverside plate mill have
been notified that their wages will
be reduced from to Is per cent after
January 1st. There is no labor organ
ization at the Riverside, and it is prob
able that no effort will be made to re-
sst the attempt to reduce wages.
The employees OF the steel plant also
expect reduction in their wages. The
Bellaire and other steel plants have re-
duced wages, their agreements going
into effect on July 1st, and it is ex-
pected that the Riverside Company will
adjust wages to conform with those
paid by other steel mills.
