regarding a reported uprising among the Indians in the Battlsford District.There are two reserves, the Créés and Stonies, at Eagle Hills, near Battleford, and three reserves on Battle River, Chief Ponndmaker\u2019a band being along the latter.It is said they have started out on the war path.At noon on the 16th, the telegraph operator at Battleford reported that 2,000 Indians had arrived there and more were coming in from the reserves in the District.The operator then left his office and the agent here has been unable ta raise his office since.It is, therefore, presumed that the operator had to flee before the Indians, who have taken possession of the town.There is considerable excitement here over the news;'the absence of telegraphic communication adds to the anxiety.The name of the telegraph agent at Battleford is Macdonald ; the line is working all right in this district and his sifence is unaccounted for except by the reason that the Indians seized the office.If hoatile it is supposed their first act would be to burn tbe office and destroy the wires.A despatch to the Manager of the Canada Pacific Railway Telegraph Line comfirms the above news.The Battleford Indians up to a year or two ago were considered among the hardest to manage in the North-West Tenri-tones and were only kept in subjection by the greatest firmness and vigilance.Of late, however, this watchfulness was somewhat relaxed and the considerable advance made by the Indians in agricultural knowledge aa:d a growing disposition to industry led to thsir being regarded as much less dangerous subjects.Daring last year, however, the Indians in the Western or Edmonton por-tion of Treaty-Six, in large numbers sad armed, visited the agent and made demands with which it was thought impossible to comply.They were, however, pacified without serious trouble.Mr.T.P.Wadewortb, Inspector of Indian Agencies and Superintendent of Indian Farms, in his last report says Pouudmaker's band had not done very well daring the year.The chief did not remain on the reserve and this was thought to have unsettled his followers.The instruotora speak of Poundmaker as hsrd to manage and always discontented.At Eagle Hills in this district are located the Red Pheasant band of Cress sad the Mosquito, Grizzly Besr and Lean Man\u2019s band of Stonies.Red Pheasant\u2019s band have been settled on their reserve six years, bat are reported to have made little progress, having grown apathetic and disposed to work only when compelled to do so.The Mosquito band are spoken of much more favorably and a good report is also made reganiing Grizzly Bear\u2019s band and that of Lean Man.Many deaths occurred in these bands during the last year, the change of food from beef, which they received in the south, to bacon, being regarded as the cause of much oi the mortality.Strike-him-on-the-Back\u2019s band, at farm No.12, and Thunder Child\u2019s band, on farm No.13, were not thought to be likely to give trouble, and are stated by the official report to be making satisfactory progress on the reserves.Pound-maker\u2019s band are Créés, 164 strong ; Red Pheasant's band are also Cress, 145 strong ; Mosquito\u2019s band, Assiniboines, 129 strong ; Lean Man\u2019s band, Assiniboines, 47 strong ; strong ;Strike-hira-on-the-Back\u2019a band, Créés, 235 strong ; Thunder Child\u2019s band, Cress, 78 strong, while the stragglers in the District are estimated at about 600.LATER.The following telegram was received here to-day from Battleford, North-West Territory :\u2014Telegraphic communication has been interrupted

current in Winnipeg that at latest accounts 2,006 Indians were marching on the town aud that a general massacre was feared.Fneods in the East must necessarily feel generally alarmed.Kindly contradict the statement as there is no foundation for it.Many Indiana from the surroanding districts,instigated by Chief Poundmaker and Big Bear.aregathering here to hold a council in regard to their grievances and to appoint delegates to send to Regina and Ottawa.The iVlounted Police are being largely reinforced from Regina, but no trouble is anticipated and no one pays the slightest attention to the doing
