FROM SOUTH M'ALEsTER.

South McAlester, Jan. H.
A telegram received here at
$40 this evening by the train
dispatcher of the Choctaw road
states that a band of 150 Semi
noles is on the warpath and is
leaving behind it a bloody trail.
The message was from the sta
ton agent at Earlboro and is TO
the effect that the Seminoles
were avenging the work of the
mob of white men that burned
the two Seminole Indians at
the stake on Friday last and
that the infuriated Seminoles
had already massacred twenty
five men, women and children.
The station agent gave the
additional Information that the
band starteG from a point six
miles south of Earlboro with
the avowed intention of setting
fire to Tecumseh and killing all
whom they met; that the In
dians were reported to have
changed their course and were,
at the time of the sending of
the message, headed toward
Earlboro. The receipt of this
startling information has Gre
ated intense excitement at
this place. Judges Townsend
and Springer, who are here, are
anxiously waiting for further
news.
Scores Of people here are be-
sieging the telegraph office for
news of friends or relatives in
that section, but the agent has
either left the Earlboro station
to gather further information
or perhaps was slain or driven
to seek refuge. If the Earlboro
Office cannot be reached soon
by wire, a train will be dis
patched from here at midnight
for the scene of the reported
massacre, under orders from
Judge Springer and having on
board all the available deputy
marshals under command of
Captain Brady, while the secre-
tary of war will be wired to or
der troops from Fort Reno.
