UNRULY INDIANS
In Minnesota Now Want a
Taste Of War.
The Authorities Preparing for Fight
Troops Being Moved In.
Trouble Originated in Arrest Of Indian by
United States Marshal.

Walker, Mimi, Oct. 3.-The runners
sent out to invite the malcontent IN
dams to council have returned and
reported that there would be some Of
the pillagers in the council, but that
they are by no means representatives
OF the tribe. After the council, If 1t
does not prove fairly representative
the federal officials will refuse to hold
II and will take measures for the i'm
mediate invasion of Bear island.
The situation at the island is not i'm
proved. All last night the Indians
were dancing and holding high links.
the patience of the officers were ex-
hausted and preparations are beng
made for hammer and tongs fight.
Lieut.. Humphrey and his 20 men of
The Sd Infantry, al Santiago veterans,
moved over to the Indian agency, last
night, each man carrying Is days ra-
tons and shovel in addition to the
regular equipment. This move was TO
impress the bucks With the fact that
Uncle Sam is in earnest.

CONNECTICUT ELECTIONS.
The Little Town Elections Show Little
Change from Last Year.

New Haven, CT, Oct. 3.-The famou.
little town elections" were held IN
Connecticut, today, 162 of the 16S towns
in the state electing officials of the
town governmentss,tin many cases vott-
ing on the liquor license question, and
in a few instances settling permanent
ly or Temporarily the question involv-
ing the abandonment of the district
school system i'm favor of consolidated
schools under town auspices. The
towns and cities not participating in
these unique elections were: Hartford,
New Haven, Bridgeport, Ansonia, Der
by and Naugatuck.
Returns up to midnight had been re-
ceived from 100 towns of the 1872 voting,
and tine tables show Republican vic
tories in 92 towns; Democratic success
in 80 and the election of split tickets in
six. Full returns from all the towns In
the election of 1897 showed 101 towns
to be Republican, % Democratic and SO
divided.
Comparing the FUN returns of last
year with the returns received thus far
from today's election, the Republicans
have lost nine towns, while the demo-
Gratis have gained four. However, of
the So towns missing, tonight, II went
Republican last year; five Democratic
and 10 were divided. In view of the
fact that many of the missing towns
are in conceded Republican strong
holds, it is believed that THE full fig
ures of this year will show but little
change from those of 1897.

trouble with the Indians in Minnesota
was received, today, at the interior de-
partment:
Walker, Mimi, Oct. 3.-Upon fur
Their Investigation I find the trouble
with the Indians was caused by a dep
uty United States marshal arresting
an Indian on a warrant. He was over
powered by the Indians and the pris-
oner was taken away from him and the
Indian police. Reseuers declare they
will not be arrested. Inspector Tinker
and myself are doing all in our power
to induce them to surrender to United
States marshal and troops here
This dispatch, though dated Satur-
day, is the latest information about the

No Lives Lost.

Atlanta, Ga, Oct. "a severe rain
and wind storm, presumably a branch
Of the great blow of last night, passed
over Atlanta, today. The wind from
the East reached a velocity of 40 miles
an hour. No damage was done in the

munication with THE coast almost i'm
possible.

ern Union said, today, that Jackson
Vile was entirely cut off from the rest
of the world. A wire was secured, ear
ly this morning, but it worked spas
medically only for a short time. There

terruptions occur frequently in differ
emit places, showing that the storm is
Still on.
