il .. a9 ID - s. 20 s.. s
St. Paul, Dec. 6. 80 Ed e. Warren,
deputy United States marshal. who
went through the battle Of Leech Lake
with the troops, and who is familiar
with all the Indians in the northern
part OF the state, having lived among
the ChippeWas for several years, said
to reporter that there was little ques-
ton that any attempt to arrest an In
dian on either the Leech Lake Or
White Earth reservations would result
In bloodshed. The least provocation
would start war and it would take
many troops to suppress an uprising.
The Indians are ugly and insolent,"
he said. They claim that they won a
victory from the soldiers at Sugar
Point and they are ready to try con-
illusions with them again. There is no
char &c for an officer to go on either of
the reservations and make an arrest.
The Indians laugh at the officers and
say that they will never be arrested.
They say that they have whipped the
forces of the United States and that
they can whip all that can be sent
against them. AS far as an officer is
concerned he is of no more use on the
reservation than a yellow dog
Indians Disappear. @
Park Rapids, Mimi, Dec. 6. Four
teen of the White Earth Indians have
been encamped on a small lake about
fifteen miles north of here and have
been killing considerable game con-
trary to law. Friday Game Warden
Stephens Of Detroit, in company with
d. w. Clason of this place. went out
and attempted to arrest them. The
Indians resisted, refused to be arrest,
ed, drove the men out Of the camp and
threatened to scalp them if they came
back. Stephens and Clason came at
once to Park Rapids, swore out war
rants and placed them in the hands Of
Sheriff Rombough. Acting upon orders
from Warden Fullerton of st. Paul
posse Of twenty-five men was organ
lied and went up after the reds. The
sheriff and some of the men have re-
turned and report that no Indians can
be found. Stephens and others are still
out. Warden Fullerton has arrived
from st. Paul an dis awaiting the ar
rival of Stephens. He says if the Gull
prits can be identified he will 60 to
