KANSAS CITY, Jan. 26. A start corro
tpondent of tlie Star, sent Into tho Crcok
country to Investigate the trouble among
tho Indians, wires today from Muskogee, I.
1 , as follows. That Ihe situation regard
ing tho Creek Indian uprising has been
somewhat exaggerated by certain corre
spondents thore can bo no doubt. It Is true
the Indiana are restless, but so fur no vio
lence I.ns boon dono and It Is questionable
If a shot will be fired. However, tho Snake
band Is well organized and if whisky should
get among them or somo dcouty should be
come Indiscreet thcro might be some
trouble. Ilut a general uprising at the pres
ent time Is out of the question. The pres
ence of tho United States troops nt Henri
etta la bound to havo a good effect, not
that they will necessarily bu needed to do
nny actual fighting, but by being there the
Indians who havo taken Crazy Snake's word
us gospel will bo convinced that tho presi
dent of tho United States hns not given
Snako tho authority to make Creek laws, as
he has been claiming.
Probably tbo most Important feature of
the situation this morning Is tho rumor re
garding William A. Jones, commissioner of
Indian affairs at Washington. Crazy Snake
is contending that when ho was last In
Washington ho called upon Mr. Jones nnd
prayed to him for relief from tho unjust
terms of the Curtis act. He says that Mr.
Jones told nlm to return, and that tho
Creeks might make their own laws, ns
heretofore. Snnko not only Insists that
this Is true, but that ho has letters
from Senator Jones to prove his assertion.
However, no ono who ha a seen tho letters
can bo found.
I'nlltlen lime I'liijctl ii l'urt.
Politics, it is said, havo entered somewhat
Into thu exaggerated reports sent out from
this section. Tho present United States
marshhl, Leo 12. Dennett, has a bidder for
his ofllcc and his enemies, It is said, have
been giving color to thu sensational reports
uml saying that another marshal would
havo made wholet-olo nrrests from tho start
and thereby put a stop to even the suspicion
of an uprising. Tho fact of tho matter is
that under recently adopted regulations by
tho department nt Washington Dennett has
been powerless to net without permission
from tho federal ofllclals thcro. This per
mission enmo only last night. Dennett Im
mediately began to tic', and is busy today
getting provisions and supplies together
preparatory to starting tomorrow with
about twenty deputies to Join tho soldiers
nt Henrietta.
Dennett says his mission Is to fight If
necessary, but principally to convince the
Indians that Snako litis no authority from
tho federal government to make laws nnd
that Snako and his followers aro violating
tho laws of tho United Stntea when they
attempt to enforce tho old lawn of the
Creeks.
Marshal Dennett, Indian Agent J. D
Schofeldt nnd J. W. Zevelln of tho Interior
department ira lu constant consultation.
All agree In Faying that they do not nntlcl
pato nny serious trouble, but add that they
aro prepared for nny situation that rany
nrlse.
WAHSEN, O., Jan. 20. A tolegrnm from
Alex Campbell, a cousin of President Mc
Klnley, says tho Dawes commission of land
appraisers lu Indian Territory are safe from
tho Snnko Indians and will protect them
selves. Mr. Campbell says tho reports of
tho uprising aro exaggerated.
Voiiiiu llimkn Are I'leroent.
J. D. Schoofcldt, United States Indian
agent, said:
"Many of thu roports that havo been
sent out havu been greatly exaggerated,
nlthough thero Is no disguising the. fact
that tho Indians aro restless, particularly
among tho most Ignorant. Somo of tho
young bucks hnvo said that they will not
submit to tho government's plan of Inud
allotment. At tho snmo time, they havo
tho most Intense feeling ngalnst tho rail
road. They say that the road has no right
to run through their land nnd aro threat
ening to burn bridges and tear up tracks
Thoy also say they will murdor nil In
dians who havo white tenants on their
lands. Tho particular object of Marshal
Dennett's party and tho soldiers Is to nr
rest thoso who havo been making threats.
With the p"arty will bo Thomas A. Sanson,
United Stutcs commissioner, nnd J. II.
Huckelborry, assistant United Stntcs nt
torney. Tho offenders will bo arrested and
tried on tho spot. Tho chargo will be
treason ngalnst tho United States govern
merit. I expect tho marshal's party and
soldiers will be out nbout n week or ten
days."

UNION WAITERS IN COURT

III Injunction Pro
ceeilliiK". Standing room only was tho condition of
Judgo Kcysor's court yesterday when
tho caso of Harry J. Stcen against the
Walters' union nnd Fred Dauman was called
for trial, for all of the habitues of Labor
temple and many of the members of organ
ized labor who havo taken little part In the
curbstouo discussions of tho questions nf-
fcctlng tho condition of Omaha laboring
men wero present to hear tho arguments of
the attorneys.
Tho enso was opened by n motion by the
attorneys for the defense asking that the
Walters' union bo discharged, nnd citing
tho cpinloti of Judge Dickinson to tho effect
that tho union could not bo made a party
to tho suit, It having no legal existence.
Opinion In Ienert imI.
Judgo Keysur reserved his opinion on this
point and n motion for a continuance by
tho plaintiff, who desired time to illo nln-
davits in opposition to thoso filed by the
defendants, was overruled with tho under
standing that ho would bo permitted to file
at n future time if ho desired.
Affidavits wero then read on the part of
tho plaintiff showing that members of tho
Walters' union nnd others had distributed
cards before the place of business of tho
plaintiff announcing that organized labor
had declared tho houso unfair and that
members of tho union and others had at
tempted to urgua with his employes, ltd
Mslng them to Join tho union and stating
that they would contlutio tho light upon
Steon until ho employed members of tho
union, when tho girls nt present employed
by him would loso their positions.
"tut t'nloii Auftiti,
Counter allldavlts on tho part of the de
fendant wero to tho effect that tho men
who passed cards wero not employed by tho
union nnd that tho organization had never
authorized tho men to distribute uny cir
culars ngalnst the plaintiff; that tho work
had been dono upon their owu suggestion
without consulting any other person.
At tho conclusion of tho nllldnvlts tho
plaintiff's attorney opened tho nrgument
for tho plaintiff, citing cases decided by
courts In Massachusetts, New York nnd
Michigan to show thai members of labor
organizations have no right to peaceably
request people to discontinue their patron
age of any houso whero they may have
trcublo with employers. He contended that
tho action of thn union showed evidence of
illegal conspiracy and that therefore all of
their actions wero Illegal.
At noon when tho court ndjourncd tho de
fendants hnd mado no showing of law nnd
the caso was continued until Wednesday
morning for tho introduction of additional
testimony.

I'lTTSFIELD, Mnss., Jan. 2C Kobcrt S.
Foaburg v.ns placed under nrrest hero todny,
charged with mm'slaughtcr In causing thu
death of MIbs May L. FosburK, daughter of
a prominent Ilumilo (N. V.) contractor, hero
on UKiist 20, 1900. The prisoner, who la
brother of tho victim, wiih lnillctt.il at the
recent sitting of the Iierkshlrc county grand
Jury.
Tho result, whllo not nltogether unex
pected In somo quarters, watt n surprise to
tho citizens nt large, many of whom ac
cepted the theory provnlent at tho time of
the murder that Mlas Fosburg had been shot
by burglars.
The authorities stato that they havo been
unable to llnd evidence that burglars en
tered the Fosburg house and It Is bulluved
Hint the pollco havo reached the conclusion
that tho shooting was thu tesult of a family
qunrral.'
Deed l.nlil to lliirulnrN.
When the murdur of MIbh Fosbnrg or
cttrred Inst August it was announced that
threo burglar?, who trad made masks out of
pillowcases, had entered the Fusburg home
and that Hobert L. Fosbnrg, tho fnther,
ha vim: attacked tho intruders, Knocking a
rovolver' from tho handB of one of them,
was beaten off Just ns Miss Fosburg camo to
his a.itiUtance. At that Instant, it wan
stated, ono of tho burglars recovered the
revolver und, plating tho muzzlo nlmost
against tho young woman's breast, fired,
Tho girl fell Into tho nrms of hor brother,
Hobert, who, It wns said, quickly laid her on
the Moor nnd nttaeked tho man who had
dono tlu? shooting. A blow with a sandbag
rntiscd tho young mnn to loosen his hold
and tho threo masked men made their es
cripe. Fosbnrg wns still confined In tho police
station tonight, una bis thus far to obtain
ball. His ball was at first placed nt $20,000
and It wns supposed he would have no dllll
culty In obtaining It. Tho amount was not
forthcoming, however, and the ollWinls 'vi ro
waited upon by iiillunntlnl personal mends,
who requested that the prisoner's bond bo
reduced to f 12.00r, stating that this amount
would soon bu raised. Tho ball was ac
cordingly reduced. ThH evening Fostitir.i
was visited by hlfl wife, father, mother, two
sisters, Esther and Ilcatrlco, and Mrs.
(. h a 1 1 n i . an Intimate friend of the family.
They remained some Urn In enrnest con
versation with him, his wifo remaining long
nfter thu others had departed.

Thu police nro giving out nbsolutoly nono
of tho ovldenco upon which tho prlsonur Is
held and tho fact that tho arrest of Fosburg
w.ts made upon n bench warrnnt, based up u
tho finding nf thu grand Jury, relievos the
chief nf police of the responsibility of that
action.
It dovelops Hint at tho coroner's Inquest
hold Into tho death of Miss Fosbnrg Miss
Ilertha Sheldon cf Providence, H. I., who
wns nt the house on the night of the mur
der, failed to put In nn nppcninnce. The
murder is supposed to hnvo occurred at
about I o'clock and at about 9 o'clock that
samo morning Mini Sheldon left for her
home. Since then every eftort bus failed to
bring her hero to testify at the Inquest.
