July 6.—A message from Stringtown saye grave trouble is apprehended between cattlemen and Indians in the Choctaw nation, as several hundred cattle have been killed during the last week, supposed- ly by Indians, who seem determined to drive the cattle out of the domain. At least 400 head have been killed. Thousands of cattle are scattered over the territory. Tribal officials have experienced great difficulty in enforcing the cattle law, which al- lows non-citizens only ten head of cattle on the Choctaw nation. It is asserted that cattle owners have vio- lated the law with impunity, hence drastic measures are being taken. A Good School.
