 For three-quarters of an hour Judge Burpee, in the city court to-day, listenA ed to confused and contradictory story of a row between Italians on Grand street last night. Michael Guerrera and Joe Perce were charged With breach of the peace in assault Ing another Italian named Michael Guerrera. The story told by the latter Michael was to the effect that he was one or party playing cards for pint or beer A dispute arose about invit- ing an outsider to to drink. The com pialnant got struck in the face with a bottle, and then everybody present took hand in the row. Complainant's head and face were wrapped in band ages. One fellow, who was cutting bread seized him by the throat and it was while he was held thus that his head was opened by a blow of a bot tie.
 Attorney Bauby, counsel for the de- fense, introduced two or three wit nesses who knew nothing about the case only that the fellow who held complainant was cutting bread and ran away after complainant was struck with the bottle.
 A witness who called himself the boss of the house in which the assault took place, claimed to know all about the row and said that the accused only tried to quiet the fighters, while the wit nesses for the complaint testified that this man was not in the house at all at the time of the row The court believed the accused were guilty and imposed on each of them a fine of $5 and costs. An appeal was taken.

 Was Exaggerated

Washington Nov. 1.-The Commissioner of Indian affairs today received the fol- lowing telegram from Indian Agent Bren- nan who is at Newcastle, Wyo.:
 Report of Indian trouble exaggerated. From best information at hand, 5 miles north of Lusk fight occurred between officers and some Indians, some of them from Pine Ridge. Seven Indians includ- ing one squaw, killed: also sheriff and one deputy About ten Indian families are un- der arrest here; will start them for Agen. cy tomorrow. In my opinion, a mistake was mad4 in precipitating the fight Would recommend that United States At torEey of this district be directed tC make thorough Investigation. Am as sured by officers of this county that nc further trouble will occur.''
 The Indian officers sympathize with tn, view that the whites were the aE9ressor, and will recommend to Secretary Hitch cock that he ask the attorney general tc have the affair investigated.
