I.S KILLKU IN A FIGHT
WITH INDl&N POLICE.
Thlrteeu Men Killed In an Attempt
to Arreitt the Notorloua Chief
and Leader of the Meaalab Craze
Chicago, Dec. 15. A nine
o'clock to-night Assistant Adjut
ant Oeneral Cochin of Oeneral
Miles' stair, received aii official
dispatch from St. Paul, saying
that Sitting Bull, live of Sitting
Hull s men ami seven Indian
police were killed in a tight to-day,
following an attempt by the police
to arrest Sitting Hull,
lie lei at Brooke, in charge ot
the troops at Pine Kidge, tele
graphed the situation to Assistant
Ailiuiai t General Corbin, at aruiv
headquarters to-night as follows:
All Indians who can he brought
in are now ht-re or near here
leaving about 200 bucks in the had
lauds, ho refuse to listen to any
one or anything. Agafm-t these!
nill send a suHicietit force to cap
ture or tight them. All has been
done that can be done. The In
dians now have a great many
stolen horses and cattle with them
and 1 hope to he able to end this
matter i.oa."
The following ollieial telegram
was also received from St. Paul,
dated Dec. 15:
"To Col. Corbin, Assistant Ad
jutant General, Cnicago: Sitting
iiull was ai rested tins morning at
daylight hy the Indian police
Fiitiils attt mpted his rescue, and
a light ensued, in which Sitting
Lull, his evils I'.latk Birds, Catch
Lear and four others were killed,
also seven Indian police. Cuplan.
Fe. het arrivid just in time with
his tr.iops, HotchKiss and Gatliiii:
guns, and teemed the b -dy ol Sit
ting Lull .by command of General
Miles."
Sunday last Agent McLaughlin
of the Standing Hock genc
visitd Silting Hull's camp and
had conference with Sitting i ull
and a number of his men. Mc
Laughlin assured them of what
this ab.-urd craze would lead to it
these demoralizing dances and
disregard for depa ttnent orders
were not soon discontinued.
Sitting Hull, while very obstinate
and atjfir.-t inclined'to assume the
role ol "big chief," finally ad
mitted the truth of Mclaughlin's
reasoning. He had a proposition
h0 make which was that McLaugh
j hIiouI.1 accompanv biiu on a
-ournev to trace from this agency
1 1 each of the other tribes of India-
through which the story oi
the Indian Messiah bad been
brought, and when he reached the
last tribe, or w here it originated,
if they could n it produce the man
w ho s arted the story, and did not
find the new Messiah as descii lied,
upon earth, together with the
dead Indians returning to re-inhabit
tins country, he would return
convinced that they (the Indians)
had been impesed upon, which
report from him would satisfy the
Sioux, and all the practices ol
ghost societies would come to an
end. but if they found him as pro
fessed by the Indians they be per
mitted to continue their niedici.ie
practice and organize as they are
endeavoring to do.
McLaughlin told him the pro
position was a novel one, but an
attempt at canying it out would
be similar to an attempt catch
what blew last year.
Washington, Dec. 15 Indian
Commissioner Motgan this evening
received from Indian Agent Mc
Laughlin the following dispatch,
dated Fort Yates. N. 1)., Dec. 15:
"I'nited States troops now Lave

with all the woman, children and
property. Sitting Bull's followers,
probably 100 men, deserted their
families and fled west up Grand

outbreak "of the Sioux reservation
is not feared, and those disaffee'ed
hands which xre now giving trou
ble will soon be placed where they
wiil cease to lie the cause of alarm
for settlers. The Moux reserva
tion is surrounded by troops,
thoroughly equipped for a winter
campaign. The jtolice behaved
nobly and great credit is due
them."
Commissioner Morgan 6howed
this telegram to the president late
this evening. The president said
he l ad tegarded Sitting Bull as
the great disturbing element in
the I ri Ik; and now that he was out
of the way he hoped a settlement

that another crisis lias been
reached in the nego'iations be
tween thie government and Great
Britain with regard to seal tiaher
ies in Behring sea. It is learned
from a reliable source that Blaine
intends to send to congress within
a few dajs a special report on the

failure to agree even upon a mode
of proceedings to effect a final
agreement. Both sides it appears
are willing to leave to arbitration
the question of sovereignity iu the
waters of the H bring sea, and
consequently the right of the
United States revenue cutters to
seize or interfere witii Canadian
sealing vessels outside the three

upon the method of getting at this

Washington, Dec. 15. The re

Tinted States bonds bv national
banks and commended the pur
pose to issue two per cent bonds.
In regard to I he proposition to pur
chase ihe existing surplus silvei
bu lion now in the country. Sec
retary Windom took x,eitive
grounds in favor of the purchase
as a means of enhancing the price
ol silver and relieving the present
financial stringency. Suggestions
will be submitted to the caucus to
night in the shape of a hill to !
drafted by Sherman. The main
tetture will be as .'ollows:
"Provision for the purchase of
$12,0(10,000 of silver surplus within
one year, not t exceed $3,000,000
worth any one month, in addition
to the purchase of 4 5 10,000 ounces

issue of 2 per cent bonds not to
exceed $10.1,000,000 in amount and
the purclcise ! sufficient silver
bullion, (in addition to the forego
ing reqiiireuii-i ts) to make good
the deficiency in the national bank
circulation whenever tnat circula
tion fads below $180,000,000 (by
means of the issue of treasury notes
ba-e i upon bullion thus pur
chased.) In case bullion in suffi
cient amount to m.et this deficien

deficiency circulation will be made
good by the issuance of ordinary
treasury notes in addition.
CLAUKSON ON POLITICS.
The Rerent Election, the Election
Hill and the Farmers' Alliance.
Boston, Dec. 15. Ex-Assistant
Postmaster General Clarkson in an
interview on national politics said
that he did not afcribe to big im
porters an extraordinary large
share in the defeat of the republi-
ans at the recent election, speak
ing of the election bill Clarkson
said he was in favor of it, but
there were no assurances that it
would pass, as some senators who
had speculations at stake would
let the bill be defeated through
lei a v. On the prospects of
financial legislation Clarkson
thought there was a majority in
each house in favor of free coin-
ge. He thought a revision of the
banking law was needed in favor
of the farmer, and he said the
Farmers' Alliance had come to
stay until some modification cf
the tanking system was m-tde.
