EXTENT OF The INDIAN VAR
Some Blood Was Shed But There Was
no General Battle.
THE REPORTS GREATLY EXAGGERATED
The Trouble Arose Over a Dispute Regarding
Pasture Lands Claimed by In
dams and Cowboys.

GUTHRIE, Okla, April 1.-THE Indian
troubles in this Territory have been
greatly magnified. Over a week ago a
quarrel took place between party Of cow
boys and several Cheyenne Indians over
the possession of some pasture land
the cowboys claimed tn have leased,
which ended in shooting scrape, one
cowboy and two Indians being killed.
This aroused the Indians in the peighbor-
hood, and they declared their intention
of capturing the other cowboys in the
party and trying them for murder accor-
ding to Indian law. When they attempts
ed this another fight happened and three
or four Indians we're killed and several
of the cowboys wounded.
The settlers all became badly frightened
and began gathering in squads and arm
ing themselves. The Indiana did like.
wise, and began summoning all the mem
bers of the tribe. Nearly five hundred
had gathered on the banks of the Wash.
ita River and were holding q war dance
when the troops arrived from Fort Reno.
Officers went among the Indians and
tried to persuade them to dispense and
allow the law to take its course in the
punishment of the cowboys, who are now
under arrest. The Indians were very
sullen and remained in conference all
night and all day, refusing to give any
answer.
The soldiers are in constant readiness
for battle and will easily prove more
than a match for the redskins. One
skirmish was had few days ago between
small band of Cheyennes and sheriff g
posse and several were killed on each
eide, but the stories about general bat
tie, with thirty or more soldiers killed,
have proven fakes.

The planet rises to-day about as the sun

BUENos AYREs, Argentina, April 49, -
Admiral Mello's squadron, which now
numbers seven war ships, including the
famous Aquidaban and the Republica,
succeeded in forcing the bar at the city
of Rio Grande do Sui, but an attempt to
land WAS repulsed by the government
batteries on shore.
The fire Of Peixoto's artillerymen was
so effective that four of the insur4ent
vessels were driven to anchor off San
Jose do Norte. r
Admiral Mello now has force Of
1900 men on his fighting ships.
There are 257 Brazilian rebel refugees
with Admiral isaldanha da CANA on board
the two Portuguese corvettes here.
The Argentine government will order
the war ships to leave port at once, as
the Portuguese minister refused to allow
the Brazilians to be landed at the lazar-
etto, where the health authorities had
directed them to be placed because yell
low fever had broken out among them.
