than a council of White Earth chiefs as
to what should be done with the $24O,

among the Indians or shall the
government agents and the com.
mission use it in providing lum-

for them. The chiefs decided that in

Later advices received here from
Massowah show that although the rout
of the Italians was complete, the ex-
tent of the disaster is somewhat less
than rumor has made it. This is said
to be owing to the fact that the Shoans
did not pursue the Italians to Asmara,
as was at first reported. and parties OF
stragglers, who were believed to have
perished, are now arriving there.
