SPECIAL TO THE CHRONICLE.
A TERRIBLE BUZZARD.
Special from the Indian Quarter
Friendly Indian Joining; tbe Hostile.
Omaha, Neb., Dec. 41. A Bee special
from Kaehville says : A blinding enow
storm which is fast assuming the pro
portions of a blizzard, is raging here and
at the agency since 9 o'clock this morn
ing. Advices are that a desultory fight
was kept up nearly all night at the battle
ground within a few miles of the agency
until by reason of the suspicions actions
of alleged friendly Indians in camp near
tne agency the troops were called in
from the field.
The question on every hand is "what
has become of the supposedly large
number of friendly bucks located south
of the agency until yesterday?" A
half-breed courier who was through that
ramp last night reports that nearly
every able-bodied Indian in this outfit
had quietly slipped away after dusk and
joined the hostile forces. The friendly
Indians at Pine Eidge now, he says, are
principally squaws and those not able to
fight.
Up to 11 o'clock this morning every
thing was reported quiet. That further
desperate fighting will occur there seems
no doubt. During this storm the In
dians would have great advantage.
Danger is that the Indians will now
break away to their strongholds in the
Bad Lands and will be reinforced by
the Rosebud, Standing Rock and other
Indians.
Eight more dead soldiers were
brought to the agency after dark last
night.

EQUITABLE FREIGHT RATES.
The Spokane Board of Trade "Will
D-
mand a Change In the Ordar
of Things.
Spokane Falls, Dec. 29. A special
meetine of the Board of Trade has been
called for Wednesday evening, to take
steps looking to the securing of more
equitable freight rates. This action is
in response to the universal demand of
shippers and citizens generally. Spo
kane has always labored against a
remarkable discrimination in favor of
j4eMninal-points SOOwiles- further west.
.Kates nave always been so adjusted that
eastern merchandise" could be carried
through this city, over a mountain range
10,000 feet high, to Portland and Puget
sound, and from there distributed to the
country surrounding Spokane Falls. It
is claimed by merchants here and by
farmers of the surrounding country, that
if the transcontinental railroads had
made Spokane their distributing point.
instead of hauling freight 500 miles
further and back, they would have had
sufficient rolling stock to handle the
grain crop instead of blockading the
wheat district. Spokane will make a
united stand, and proposes to convince
the railway managers that the present
ruinous competition with water hauls is
entirely unnecessary and that their in
terests should induce them to save the
enormous waste of energy, now thrown
away, by laying down upon this side of
the Cascade mountains everv pound of
freight distributed between that range
and the Rocky mountains, This would
cause a revolution in the existing rail
way plans, a change that it is believed
here the railroads themselves will gladly
welcome, in order to avoid the cheap
haul to seaport terminals. Spokane
now has more actual lines of road than
any other Pacific coast city, and has re
ceived this year, notwithstanding these
disadvantages, nearly 400,000,000 pounds
of transcontinental freight.
