the rapid movement of the troops, and

battle and the deployment Of the
different divisions occurred without
check.
SIX Chiefs Killed
During the desperate encounter re-
ferred to, the head Chief, Looking
Glass, who was a man Of mature
years and a great authority and pow
er as an Indian leader, and five other
of the principal chiefs fell beneath
the destructive fire of the soldiers,
leaving Chief Joseph in control.
He was a natural leader of men, of
! fine, stalwart, massive frame, tall,
and an unusually handsome Indian,
with large brilliant eyes, strong fea-
lures, and in every respect superior
man.
Several times, under flag of truce
demand was made for the surrender
of the tribe, but no definite action
was secured until the fifth day. OF
course, it took sometime to gain the
confidence of the Indians and to as
sure them that they would not be
, subjected to massacre or cruel treat
ment.
We could only assure them that as
long as they were under our control
they would be treated justly and fair
| ly and that we believed they would
be sent back to the country whence
they came. This was the only as
surance that we could guarantee.
They were distinctly told that what
ever, the authorities at Washington
directed would have to be carried out.
Joseph Surrenders.
| On the fifth day, standing between
the lines under a flag Of truce, Chief
Joseph raised his hand and eyes to-
ward heaven and in the most digni-
fled manner said, From where the
sun now stands will fight no more!"
and formally surrendered his rifle
and those of his followers and COM
mitted himself and his tribe to the
control Of the military forces then
surrounding. The solemn pledge
thus taken under the most tragic cir
cumstances upon the ground strewn
with the bodies of dead men and
horses was faithfully kept by that
natural prince Of his race and by his
brave followers.

FARMING TRUST REVOLT.
Northern Modavia Is Scene of Many
Bloody Riots.

DlOOuy NlOlSs
Vienna, Austria-Tbe seriousness
of the situation in northern Moldavia
growing out Of the agraian disorders
has not, according to the latest tele-
graphic reports reaching here from
Caernowitz, on the border, been sx-
aggerated.
1t is estimated that 400 farms in
Moldavia have been devastated, 5000
frgitives have fed over the Rouman-
ian frontier into Austria, and a total
of 10000 Jews are homeless.
The number of dead and wounded
cannot be given accurately, but the
reports of today give a total Of about
80 men killed and about $50 wounded.
The outbreak seems today to have
been partially suppressed. The Rou-
manian government is still sending
troops into the affected district. Prac-
tically the entire province of Media
via has been involved.
The movement is more really agra
arian than anti-Semitic. The peasants
are in revolt against the great farm
ing trust, which has leased half the
cultivatable lands in Moldavia. The
absentee landlords, who control the
trust, are Jews, and this fact brings
the ire of the peasants down upon
any and all Jews they meet. and to
this antlpathy is added strong racial
teel'ng arising from other causes.
