CHICAGO special: Capt. v. D. McGil-
iycuddy. formerly the Indian agent at
Pine Ridge, called at army headquarters
and gave it as his opinion that trouble
might be expected ut the Rosebud and
other agencies.
The Indians have been aroused to q
high state of excitement by the recent
killing of an Indian near Black Pike
Creek, north of White River, and out of
the jurisdiction of the government. The
murderer was Il desperate named Jack
Whipplc, who pounded the redskin to
death. The Indians demanded ven
g. Ance and Whipplc was arrested. but
the authorities claimed nothing could
be done with him, as the killing oc-
CURED outside of the jurisdiction of the
United States. The Indians could o
see the logic OF this n are now NUT
tering and making threats. Capt. Me-
Gillycuddy also says the redskins are
still indulging in the ghost dance and
are ready for any exciting event as an
excuse for an outbreak.
Another complaint made by the In
dians is that they are not allowed to eat
part of the cattle which the governs
ment gives them. Fresh cntrails. and
raw at that. are considered a luxury,
but the eating of these delicacies has
been stopped by the Interior liepart-
ment, it being contendcd that this food
tends to arouse the brutal and savage
natures of the Indians. The red men
have greatly taken this to heart. and
ONE of them have refused to take their
ratiOns because the beef was not served
u In entrail. Capt. M~cGillycuddy suy-
gcsts as q remedy for the murders of In
dams that the government provide IL
fund for the prosecution of the murder
ers. Entrails of beef, he believes, should
be kept from the Indians.
