A Rancher Complains of the
Presence of Indians.
THEY BRIGHTEN HORSES
Many Runaways Causes by the Camp
Being Located Too Near the Road
Sheriff Fitzpatrick Asked to
Take Some Action.

A prominent rancher, who reside.
near Mill Creek, in the valley east o
the city. came in yesterday and called
upon Sheriff Fitzpatrick in relation I,
a camp of Indians, who are makinr
themselves more or less of a nuisance
in that part Of the valley. The gentle
man said that the Indians have pitched
their tents so near to the wagon road
h a passing teams are frightened and
runaways are of frequent occurrence
The Indians are supposed to be Crees
and their number is quite large. The
rancher says that the settlers in the
valley would feel a good Zeal easier ii
the Indians were sent away altogether,
but at least they should be required to
move their outfits to a safe distance
from the road.
The highway at the point where the
Crees are encamped is particularly
dangerous, inasmuch as on the oppo-
site side of the road there is a deep
ditch. and a horse shying at the red
skins picturesque village invariably
makes a break for the ditch. The shy
ing of the horses when driven by men
is not so bad. but it is feared that some
day a lady may be driving along the
road n her horse becom frightened
at the outfit and jump into the ditch,
with probably serious results.
Mr.. Fitzpatrick advised the gentle
man to request the Indians to move
their amp to a distance from the road,
and said IL they did not comply with
the request, he would take the matter
up. The Indians have been camped in
the valley for some time, and each day
a number of squaws come to this city
and work the back alleys and garbage
barrels. The spot on Mill Creek where
the redskins are located is especially
fitted for a base of operations for the
Indians, as the slaughter house in the
near vicinity affords a most abundant
point of supplies, and the daily forays
of the squaws on the offal dumps has
attracted considerable notice. Another
thing that make the point a most sat
i~sfactory one is the fact that IL affords
easy access to the city garbage dump.
always a source of unlimited supply to
the Indians. The noble red man, or
rather red m works the garbage
dump to a finish and there is very lit
tie in the way of food that escapes
their eagle eye.
Up to the present time no complaints
have been received in regard to thefts
or other petty crimes committed by the
Indians, and they are generally con-
sidered to be a pretty peaceable sort
of an outfit. Nevertheless, the settlers
on Mill Creek would feel a good deal
easier n safer If the Indians were
induced to change their location for
one tuated at a greater distance from
their farms. If the request of the COM
planning rancher is not complied with
Sheriff Fitzpatrick will prob
ably take some action looking toward
their removal.

them. After the company had assem-
bled a few hours drill practice was in
dulged in. after which a sally was
made into the streets. The company
looked long for the enemy. but the
enemy appeared not, and after parad-
ing about the streets for a time the
guardsmen returned to the armory.
The people who saw the gallant SOL
diers marching w and down the street
thought that surely var must have
been declared and supposed that the
company was on its way to the railway
station preparatory to leaving for the
scene of the trouble. This Is not the
case. however. The guardsmen were
simply out TO get in their hands-or
rather their feet-at marching and
counter marching. and despite the an
tiquated arms and uniforms. the boys
made a handsome appearance. The
company declares itself ready for war
at any m and will henceforth
drill faithfully in order to become as
nearly perfect as possible I'm the ways
Of service. II the company should be
called out. IL could go with n full COM
plement of men. as there nave been
hundreds of applicants for enlistment
during the past few days.

Will He Heard Thursday.
Constable Jack Conley returned yes
terday from Great Falls, having in
charge H. ]. Neil and c. ID. Bishop, the
two young men who are accused of hav-
ing forged a number of checks in this
city last week. The men were taken to
the county Jail M afterwards were
brought up before Judge Williams for
arraignment. Both men pleaded not
guilty and their preliminary hearing
was set for Thursday morning at IL
o'clock. In default of $500 bonds zach
they were returned to the custody of
the sheriff. Neil and Bishop are very
young men and are the fellows who, a
week or so e passed a number Of
worthless checks on several business
houses in this city. While operating
here they pretended to be men of
means seeking an opportunity to in
vest some of their money in Anaconda.
They talked of opening a saloon and
pretended to be making arrangements
for the business, and in this way they
succeeded in roping in some of the bust
ness men.
In Judge Williams court Yesterday
the case of the state against John Pen
mock. wherein John j. Murphy was the
complaining witness, was dismissed.
The court waited about an hour for
Murphy to appear to prosecute against
Pennock. but as the states witness
failed to turn up, the defendant was
discharged. The ease was the result of
a quarrel over a bill which one of the
parties is alleged to have owed the other
and when collection was attempted the
men got into an alteration. The par
ties are both wood haulers and the al
legged debt is the result Of a transact.
ton in the wood line.

LONDON, Nov. 2.--The Daily Graphic

In Paris that Captain Baratier bears in
structions to Major Marchand to return
to Fashoda and then to withdraw his
expedition in the direction of the Upper
Ubanghi river, north of the Congo, evac-
uating Fashoda and the five posts estab-

Gated in the Anglo-German agreement.
The Egyptian government will be in
vited to send troops to accompany Ma
jor Marchand as he retires from the
Bahr Ell Ghazal territory and to reoc-
cupy the posts as they are evacuated by
the French officers, thus solving the diff
ficulty concerning Major Marchand's 8
revictualment.
When Major Marchand's retirement
is fully accomplished, negotiations
based on proposals submitted by Baron
de Courcel to Great Britain will be
opened.

dered to the Scene by the Com
manding General.

CAMP POLAND, Knoxville, Tenn, Nov.
3.-The camp of the Sixth Virginia
(colored) was the scene of mutiny dur
ing the evening. The trouble was in
the nature of the men in several COM
panies refusing to obey commands or
orders issued by the nine white officers
who were recently assigned to the regi-
ment by Governor Tyler of Virginia.
The regiment was called for drill at the
usual hour and the white officers as
sumed command. To their surprise
and indignation the negroes refused to
execute the drills and when pressed for
an explanation it was announced that
the presence of white officers was the
cause. The matter was reported to the
commanding general and the Thirty
first Michigan and Sixth Ohio was or
dered to the scene. General Bates in
formed the men Of the seriousness OF
their offense and warned them that fur
ther acts of the sort would be punished
as provided by law. The men then
agreed to obey the white officers. but
will send complaint to the governor OF
Virginia and ask that the white officers
be removed.
