INDIAN MIRDERERS JAILED.
Detailed Report of Capt. Stouch of
the Tongue River Agency.

The Indian office has received from Capt.
Stouch of the Tongue River, Mont, agency
detailed report on the recent trouble
there arising from the murder of Settler
John Hoover by David Stanley, a Cheyenne
brave. After much diplomacy on the part
of the agent. Stanley. with his two accom-
plices-Sam Crow and Yellow Hair-are now
lodged in jail at Miles City and Will be
tried by the civil courts. Captain Stouch's
description of the trouble is interesting in
that it shows that constant conflicts occur
between the federal officers and the state
authorities in arrests of Indians. In this
use, he claims, the presence of the sheriff
and large posse came near causing
conflict with the Indians. The report deals
at great length with the difficulties thrown
around him by the interference of the state
officials, and concludes by recommending
that in view of the disturbed condition of
the settlers two troops of cavalry be sta,
toned at Tongue River.

Time Fixed for the Yale-Harvard.
Cornell Race.

Poughkeepsie on the Hudson is just be-
ginning to wake up to the fact that it Is
to be the scene next week of one of the
greatest boat races that has ever been
rowed.
Until the three crews are together
in the same river 1t will be impossible to
compare their merits. and that will not be
until next week. Cornell arrives at her
quarters Thursday, and the Yale crew is
to be brought around from New London
on q yacht next Sunday.
The Harvard crew meanwhile has been
getting in some good practice, and has
twice gone over the course on time. The
time made was in each case much faster
than that of ordinary rows at New Lon
don. but the stronger tide at Poughkeepsie
must be taken into consideration.
The crew will row practically according
to Lehmanr's idea of the English stroke.
He feels that there will be few rough
places to smooth over before the crew has
attained that precision and regularity that
characteriZes English crews, but that two
weeks more of his constant attention will
accomplish everything that could be de-
sired.

Two Hours and Three Minutes.
Henry Smith Of Baltimore yesterday
rode from the foot of the Capitol steps. east

Baltimore city. in two hours. three minutes
and sixteen and half seconds. The dis
tance Is about forty miles. The previous
record was made by Harry Parks Of Wash

minutes.
The Baltimore Sun says Of the run: Smith
had favorable weather throughout the
route. He left the Capitol steps at am.
and cleared Washington city at 7.O5.21.
His timers at the start were Rudolph, Jose
and Tubman. George Smith and Gensler
paced i'm to Hyattsvilie. about six miles.
At this point the roads began to be very
bad and Smith took the eide roads. A. Z.
Moran and Dodge, who were to have paced
him to Ronzaville, found it impossible to
do this work. owing to the bad and mar
row paths that had to be traversed. so
they rode behind him in order to render
aid in case of accident.
Laurel was reached by the recordbreak
er at sos. He was there timed by Charles
B. Bake, James r. Dunlop and ". c. MOI
ner.
He was unpa ced from Laurel to Elkridge
At Elkridge he was met by Samuel NJ.
Warns, who paced him to the finish. Just
before reaching Gwynn's Falls Warns
pedal struck yellow cur dog. The dog was
knocked down and Smith rode over it. For
tunately neither rider was thrown. Smith
reached Gwynn's Falls at 9O3.161a The
timers at this point, the finish. were T. H.
Van Order and f. Howard Harvey. Smith
continued through Baltimore to the city
hall. reaching it at 9.14.23h.
All the timers and pacemakers south of
Laurel were members of the Washington
Road Club and Mr.. Smith said they We're
very kind to him. He further stated that
the roads from Washington to Baltimore
are very hard ones TO ride over being very
sandy. He was forced to use side paths
nearly the entire way.
Run to baltimore.
Twelve members of the Chain and Sprock-
ct Cycle Club of this city. under VIM. Berg
