Reports front the scene of trouble tonight
indicate considerable uneert unity. The
(lancing on Bear Island is. kept UP, and is
looked on as one of the principal causes for
apprehension. Many Indians hax-o been
si . n going from other parts of the reserva
tion toward the island. Whether they will
join witli the comparatively small number
of turbulonts is not known. Inc I.cir
islanders nr" gaining Indian sympathy in
their claims of a. victory over the soldiers,
which may bring them r- ruits.
