TROOPS OFF FOR LAME DEER.
No Further Trouble Reported
Among the Agency Indians.

Among the Agency Indians.
Mon, Jan. 12.-There have
been no developments in the reported
trouble among the Northern Cheyenne In
dians at Lame Deer, eastern Montana.
White, the Indian who went o, the war
path when Indian policemen attempted
to arrest him. did not kill his wife and
daughter as at first reported.
Agent Clifford had suspected White of
illegally killing agency deer. The Indian
was summoned before the agent to ex-
plain. He declined to come and Dick
Bullard, an Indian policeman, was sent
after him. White shot and killed the po-
liceman. shot three of his own ponies and
then turned the weapon upon himself.

White had threatened to stir up trouble
among the Indians If Clifford did not de-
sist in his efforts to prosecute him for
killing cattle. Troop F of the Thirteenth
Cavalry has left Fort keogh for Lame
Deer agency.
In conjunction with the troops already
at the agency it is believed the cavalry
can quell any trouble.

BERLIN. Jan. 12.-It is understood that
Prince Henry of Prussia, who will visit

The Hohenzollern will have on board
the famous musical band of the Kiel

SPECULATION In PARK LANDS.
Buying of Appalachian Realty Send,
Prices Upward.

KNOXVILLE. Tenn, Jan. IL. - Large
tracts Of mountain land in the range of
the proposed Appalachian National Park
are being bought up by land spectators.
under the belief that the park bill will
pass and land which can now be had for
almost a song. can then be sold at a de-
cided advance.
Recently tracts of land ranging from
10000 to 100000 acres have exchanged
hands, and negotiations are now on for
several other large tracts. The mountain
lands, which are covered with a fine for
est of various kinds OF trees, are being
bought for from IS cents to 50 an acre.
The average price for the lands is about
81 per acre.
Presumably these deals have been made
for the timber, but much of it is too re-
mote from transportation to make de-
velopment feasible. Persons from all sec
tions Of the country are here to buy land
and already there is much speculation
and owners of property are raising prices.

MINISTER'S MEET IN PEKING.
Points of the Settlement With China
Discussed.

PEKING. Jan. 12.-The foreign Ministers
held a meeting yesterday and discussed
three points of interest in regard to the
settlement with China of the indemnity
question and other matters of interna-
tional interest.
The first question discussed was in re-
gard to the apportionment of the 10000
900 taels of indemnity claims in excess OF
the total fixed in the protocol. the idea
being to assess a proportionate loss TO
each Power. No decision was reached on
this point because many OF the claims
have been transferred.
Transfers of Claims.
The French have transferred from 9TH
ers to the Beigians and Englishmen to the
Italians. 1t was discovered that after
the receivers had approved the various
claims the amounts allotted were made
quate. 1t is expected that an amicable
agreement will be reached on this ques-
ton.
The second point was in regard to the
international organization recently formed
at Chefoo for common defence. This or
ganization applied for the arms which
were coniiscated by the customs author
tiles short time ago from smugglers and
which 1t was thought. would be divided
evenly. The disposition of these arms
was discussed at the last meeting OF
the Ministers.
The organization does not contain any
japanese representative. and for that
reason the Minister of that country OBJ
jected to the distribution and the mat
ter was not decided.
The third question that came up was
in regard to the reception by the En-
peror of the representatives from the
various countries. 1t was decided that
the five new Ministers aid charges d af-
faires should first present their creden-
tials to Emperor Kwang Su, who on the

A case of small pox on the Meade
caused that transport to return to San
Francisco. We ARE fortunate in not
having small poX among our constant
ills. In all large sea ports small pox
is endemic, and cases of it are con-
stantly occurring Our danger lies in
the disease being imported here,
through the transports or by some of
the tramp steamers. Sailing vessels
give the disease time to incubate.
Even if small poX did make its way in,
it is doubtful if we should have an
epidemic as the population is now
thoroughly yaccinated.

The question of the freedom of the
press, and it's right to crucise every
public person has been argued over and
won in times past, and will be fought
and won again. There was time
when papers hesitated to criticise the
reigning monarch, but that has long
gone by. Among Americans the right
OF criticism of every one from the Pre-
Sldent downward is freely exercised.
Every newspaper freely states what it
thinks, and great many use the car
toon. As for the comic papers like
Puck and Judge, they live by lampoon-
ing and holding up to ridicuIe the
leading men of the country.
