Denver, Feb 23.-After a battle
throughout the night near Blum, Utah,
between a band OF tifty-two Piute In
dians and a posse Of twenty-six men,
led by United States Marshal Aquila
Nebeker bands OF citizens from vari
Gus towns in Utah are preparing to
go to the assistance of the whites.
The Indians also have been reinforced
Two Indians and one white man have
been killed. two Indians and white
man wounded ana two Indians cap
tured
One OF those killed was an Indian
girl who was said to have run into
the line of battle The fight started
when the whites. after several days
journey by wagon from Cortez. Colo.
arrived at the camp OF Use Ne-Gal, a
Piute Indian leader, whose arrest on
a charge of murder was sought
Tse-Na-Gal, who is also known as
Everett Hatch, is charged with the
murder last March OF Juan Chacon, a
sheep herder in MonteZuma county,
Colo. After his arrest the Indian es-
capped to Utah where his father, "OId
Polk" is said TO have counselled re-
sistance. The band of which Tse-Ne-
Gal is the leader is known as an un-
controllable nomadic tribe, which has
on many occasions given settlers of
Southeastern Utah much trouble.
The posse which pursued Tse-Ne-
Gal was organized at CorteZ. Colo,
several days ago by Marshal Nebeker
on request OF District Attorney Ted
row of Denver for the arrest of the
Indian. The trail of the fugitive led
the posse through a remote mountain
Gus region, across the state line into
Utah. Travelling by day and night
the posse drew near the camp OF the
Indians at midnight, two and a half
miles from Bluff. Instantly the In
dians opened fire and the battle was
on in earnest.

Germans May Show Map.

The fact that the Evelyn lies at the
bottom OF the North sea will make IL
difficult to examine fits hun. IL was
pointed out, however, that German Of
ficials might disclose to the American
naval officer in confidence the map OF
their mine fields in the vicinity where
the Evelyn was sunk.
The minister from The Netherlands
called at the state department to in
quire what reports this government
had received about the Evelyn. He
said he had no official report of the
destruction OF the vessel. After con-
ferring with Counselor Lansing he
expressed the opinion that the sinking
apparently must have been entirely
accidental
Chairman Stone of the senate for
eign relations committee said he can
see no complications arising from the
destruction OF the Evelyn.

Daniels has ordered Commander Wal

tache at Berlin. to investigate at once
ton of the American steamer Evelyn.
So far official advices merely have re
ported the sinking of the vessel and
its cargo. but gave no details.
Secretary Daniels explains that his

the ambassadors at London and Ber-
lin for report was 10 obtain tech
nical information. which perhaps
might not be included in the ambassa-
doris replies. Ii was understood. of
course, that Commander Gherardi. as
American attache at the American
embassy at Berlin. will be guided en-
tirely by Ambassador Gerard in maxi
ing his investigation
IL was said at the navy department
that from present indications il will
be difficult for the naval officer to get
exact information OF what actually
destroyed the Evelyn Unless Cap
tain Smith or some of the members
of the crew of the steamship actually
saw the coming tower or periscope OF
a submarine. officials say, it would
not be possible to deny that the Eve
lyn was sunk by mine.
