Settler* Allege That Indian Guides
Are Leading the Troops on
False Trails.
Sheridan, Wyomln, Nov. 1.—A
skirmish occurred yesterday between
a band of Ute Indians and a troop
of the Tjnth cavalry on Bitter creek,
according to word brought by spe-
cial courier. The troops had cap-
tured fifty Ute poeles and frighten-
ed five herders. As the troopers
were driving the ponies away, 100
Utes, fully armed, surrounled the
cavalrymen and the ponies.
The Indians stampeded the po-
nies with revolver shots and native
war whoops, recovering all their
ponies, but several ponies were kill-
ed by the troopers in an effort to
stop the stampede.
The Indians did not fire at the
soldiers and the soldiers desisted
from atta king the ( tes, as the reds
greatly outnumbered them.
Another detachment of the Tenth
avalry that left Sheridan Monday
iij;lit ran across a wandering band
if 100 Crow Indians under com man 1
of Chief Sweetmouth. The troopers
I rove the Crows back to the Crow
igency. The Crows denied any In-
tention of joining the Utes.
Still another squad of the Tenth
avalry fell in with a band of
Cheyenne Im'.Inns. who, on represen-
tation of their desire for a hunt,
were allowed to go in peacw
Settlers charge that Indian guides
mployed by the federal troops, are
icting treacherously and leading the
roops on fase trails to keep soldiers
from overtaking the Lies.

for
San Antonio, Tex., Nov. j.—While
in his backyard George Malvern
Smith, one of the clerks in the gen-
eral freight agent's office of the Sap,
saw a large chicken snake attempt-

iccount of an enlargement. In the

■make and found it bad swallowed a
hina nest egg by mistake. Mr.
Smith says a friend of his formerly
■tsed that method of exterminating
the chicken snakes when he found
hem too annoying. At night he
ivould take in all the hen's eggs
tnd replace them with china nest

KoiM-rt Sin i(it Taken Into Woods

Sherman. Texas, Nov. 2.—Robert
Smith, aged 18 years, son of Col. R.
E. Smith, was found in an uncon-
scious condition on the sidewalk
near bin father's home in West
Sliermau last night at 10 o'clock. His
coat and top shirt were gone, as
were his shoes. His hands were
tied behind him with a strong cord.
One pants leg was cut off about the
knee.
The young man, after nearly an
hour's efforts In his behalf. In a
measure came out of the stupor lb
which he was found, and stated that
on his way to school this morning he
was compelled by two men to accom-
pany them ikiu a woodland, where
they took a watch and a small
amount of money from him, and al-
so his clothing, and left him tied.
Before completing the story he was
attacked with nausea, and the expla-
nation of how he got home is discon-
nected, but the inference Is that he
succeeded In liberating hlmsoir suf-
ficiently to drag himself home nnd
fainted from exhaustion where h«
was found. The description of the
two men. as best It could be gotten
from the young man. has been fur-
nished the police.
