FOUGHT IN THE STREETS.
"Pitched Battle" Between Squaw Men
and Indians at Wewokn.

WICHITA, Kan, Aug. 2S.-One hundred
and fifty squaw men and three hundred full
blooded Indians and half-breeds had a
pitched battle in the streets of Wewoka,
in the Seminole reservation, in the Indian
Territory. yesterday. In the fight three
full bloods and two half-breeds were killed
and several wounded on both sides. A reign
OF terror ensued. Troops from Fort Carey
were summoned, and their prompt arrival
prevented great slaughter, as the Indians
had retired to prepare for a more vigorous
attack on the white men. 1t is thought
now that the troops were able 10 preserve
order.
. AT the last meeting of the Seminole :rour-
Gil a law was passed ordering the imme-
date expulsion of all white men from the
reservation. The efforts of the indian no.
lice to put into effect the order OF oapul-
sion is what caused the trouble.

LONDON. Aug. %. - A dispatch to the
Times from Athens says that passengers
just arrived on the steamships from Con-
stantinople describe in a vivid and graphic
fashion the scenes in the harbor at the
time of their departure. Several Armenians
seeking refuge on board the foreign steam
ers were pursued by Mosiem fanatics and
students from the Mchammedan schools
in boats. In every instance the Armenians
were killed outright by the zealots. One
Armenian almost reached the Italian steam
ship when he was struck on the head by
an anchor. He sank into the waters of the
Golden Horn and was never seen again.

lied a denial of the published report that
the President has ordered the practice
ship Bancroft to Constantinople and that
the Navy Department was in a state Of
suppressed excitement over the move. 1t
is learned that the Bancroft is to be de-
tached from the use of the Naval Academy
and is to be fitted out as a cruiser with a
full complement of officers. This will take
at least two weeks and she will then be
serviceable for special purposes for which
light draft crafts are required The Berlin
treaty prohibits the entry of n ship carry
ing more than six guns into the ~Bosphorus.
The Bancroft carries but four guns. These
scveral circumstances have been put to-
gether as a basis for somewhat sensational
stories TO the effect that the Bancroft was
destined for Turkish waters.
