QUIET ON THE FRONTIER.
All Sa fe at the Last News From Jack

All Sa fe at the Last News From jack
sons Hole.
Commissioner OF Iudian Affairs Browning
received a telegram yesterday afternoon
from Agent Teter at Market Lake, stating
that man had come indirect from j ackson's
Hole, and reported all safe there when he
left
The Commissioner says ne is in 10 wise
alarmed at the report from Oregon that
trouble similar TO that with the Bannocks
will be had with the Indians in Oregon
in regard to hunting unless the de partment
takes immediate action in the matter.
q He says that complaints are often
made by various communities against the
Indians hunting, and the Jackson Hole
episode only furnishes food for a story
in this connection.
Gen. Schofield last night received a
message from Gen. Coppinger that con-
firms the press dispatches refuung the
stories OF massacre of the whites. The
message is dated at Market Lake, Wyo.,
the station where the troops disembarked
and reads as follows:
Il find the country full of wild rumors,
but Mr.. Seymour, who left TctOr Pass
yesterday noon, reports all quiet tonight"
The dispatch giving the news OF the
alleged massacre comes from Market Lake,
iud., fifteen miles DOTtu OF ICdnb I ais
1t is thought strange that such informa-
ton should have been received at one OF
these towns and not have reached the
other, as both are ON the same railroad and
1t is said at the Indian Bureau that there
is no load from Market Lake direct to
Jackson's Hole, and that the troops must
start from Idaho Falls. w. W. Teter,
brother of Agent Teter, arrived in Wash
ington yesterday from Idaho, where he
had been visiting his brother. He left Fort
Hall July II. He does not credit the
stories of the massacre, and thinks the
whole matter has been much exaggerated.
Mr. Teter says the Bannocks are usually
well behaved. on July II, when he
left Idaho, thirty BaUnOcks were known
to be South OF the reservation returning
from trading with the Navajo Indians there.
Only nine BannoCks were reported in the
Jackson's Hole district at that time Mr..
Teter says the trouble comes from the
settlers who have been acting as guides
to parties of Yellowstone Park tourists
and from the white hunters.

ATLANTA JUST In TIME
American Citizens Saved by Her
Arrival at Havana.
Volunteers Intended to Demand the
Heads of the Prisoners at Their
Parade Last wednesday.
lBY United 7 reSs. J

Key West, Fla, July 27.-Pass sengers
by the steamship Ma scotte tonight state
that the arrival OF the United states cruiser.
Atlanta, at Havana last Wednesday gave
the volunteers a terrible setback. They
were to be reviewed during the afternoon
between 3 and o o'clock, and intended to
demand the heads of Sanguilly and Gomez,
prisoners of the Cabanas and citizens OF the
United States.
Shortly after the arrival Of the Atlanta
she was visited by Consul Williams. After
he left the captain and one officer visited
the place. What took place during the
visit is not known, but no demand was
made for the prisoners
The next morning Consul Williams was
summoned to the palace and asked why an
American war vessel came into Havana at
such an unusual time OF the year. The
consul replied that ne had no authority to
question the captain of any ship, and that
the Atlanta came there under sealed orders
1t is openly asserted in Havana that the
arrival OF the Atlanta alone saved San
guilly and Gomez.

Different Stories
(By United PreSs)

SAT- Lake, Utah, July 27.-The wild
rumors received yesterday that a general
massacre or whites had occurred at Jack
sons Hole appear to be without foundation
IN fact. The short dispatch received at
an early hour this morning from Market
Lake saying that all was quiet at jack
sons Hole and no fighting had occurred
has since been confirmed
1he fact Is, the settlers are well armed
and strongly intrenched and can, in all
probability, hold out until the soldiers ar
rive. The latter ought to reach jack
sons Hole tomorrow afternoon.
Three hundred Indians are encamped on
the ground where their fellows were killed
q week ago, land are hungry for vengeance
There are also considerabl bodies of
Indians scattered all over the Teton Ba sin,
and the signal fires for their ssenIbIing are
burning.
AMMUNITION SHORT.
They ale, however, short of ammunition
and 1t is doubtful II they can obain any
thIough the passes, as they are guarded as
faI as possible by the whites and have strong
Ioitlflcatlons at the mouth of Trail Greek
canon
Market Lake, July 27.-Troops from Fort
Robinson reached here this morning They
consist of the first squadron of the Ninth
Cavalry, under Major A. r. Chaffec, four
teen Officers, 1875 men.
Chief Packers, 2O1 horses, eighty pack
mules and tweDty-eight draft mules dis
embarked aud started with the least possible
delay to make a forced march uto Jackson's s
Hole, l20 miles distant, TO the relief Of the
men resident there. This town is composed
OF only fourteen houses.
CONTRARY REP ORTs-
Adjutaut Gen. Sitter, of Wyoming. is
here and says that the Information in his
report was received from the settlers after
a strenuous endeavor to get something from
the Indians.
A very contrary report is that OF Major
Teller, Indiau agent at Fort Hall, who
vehemently declares that the settlers are
almost wholly to blame; that they really
murdered the six Indians in cold blood
after the trial, in which they were fined
S75 each for what the white settlers are
doing constantly
Then unarmed, the Indians tried TO make
their escape, and six were killed in this
attempt, after they had been treated ike
