In regard to the killing of Jackson and the Indian trouble in Colorado, the following tele- gram was received by the Attorney General to- ee COL., Oct. 15.—Have just recelved the tolfbw ig dispatch: “Pitkin, ot Oct, 15.—E.

Pitkin, of Colorado, in a very long dls- Patch to Secretary Schurz, dated the 15th says that great excitement prevails in Western Col- orado over the circumstances connected with the killing of the Ute and the subsequent mur- der of young Jackson by the Jadians. fe (Pitkin) sent two trustworthy men to inveati- gate the affair, but they have not yet reporte1. Only 5 persons, 4 white and 1 Indian saw the Indian killed. The white men say the Indian who was shot, frst began fiting; the white men ran bebind wagons, and young Jackson seizing a rifle from oue of the wagons, fired ia self d: fense. This was about? o'clock pm. At dart the Indian and his companions rode off, and the freighters did not know he was hurt ull ne day, when freighters were arrested by Agent Berry, who had 15 soldiers and 125 armed In- dians With him. Young Jackson was disarmet by the egent and placed in custody of soldiers, Jackson implored protection of 200 soldiers, who were camped near the reservation, until he could be lodged in jail. The agent refused to allow thls protection, and permitted the solgiers to depart, retaining only a guard of fifteen to protect the prisoner against tho fury of over 1) armed Indians. Jackson was turned over to Cline, Hoyt and Holmes to be taken to Gunnison, 60 milesaway. Cline, Holmes and Hoyt say they were ambushed after goin 'g three mites, and Jackson was taken away y the Indians, Cline says if Jackson had not been surrendered to him and others Indians would have massacred whole party. Gov- ernor Pitkin 1s very indignant that Jackson was not protected. Governor Pitkin says the Utes are lawiessly inclined since Ourey’s death, and if the general government does not protect the citizens the state will He urges the immediate removal of the Uncom igres to the mouth of the Uncompahgre river or some other point where they will be re- mote from the whites and from the road over which the food the whites subsist upon has to pass, If this be done it would allay the excite- Ment in a measure. Pitkin telegraphei state Officers to provect Berry aud others fully when arrested ugainst mob violence, and says he does not apprehend such violence while the men are in the hands of the civil ofiicers. ‘The people only desire that the question of the guilt or innocence of the partes shall be determined by the courts, He says it 1s not truethat persons about the Ute reserva- Ucn sre endeavoring to bring about a disturb- ance with the Indians to prevent consumma- lion of the Ute treaty. The members of the Ute commission here told Governor Plusin that this statement (sent by Assoclated Press yester- Gay) Was rot true; that no parties had tried to create u disturbance. The eommissioners said that while the people of Colorado really wanted the Utes removed from the state they had nor shown any disposition to prevent consumma- tion of the treaty. Gov. Pitkin does not see why the arrest of Agent Berry by crimtnal pro- cess should defeat the treaty arrangements Goy, Pitkin reviews the outrages and murders committed in the last. year or two by the Utes, and says the whites must be protected. AGENT BERRY, IN HIS REPORT, received at the Indian department to-day, says he was compelled to put Jackson under arrest and start him off in custody, else the Tudian would have murdered every body present.

If the election had been ten days late: instead of a mere democratic defeat there wou! have been a panicky stampede. Mr. Davidge also explained how Mr. Landers came to vote the republican ticket. The old gentleman was atthe polls personally working for the cause. He got hold of alot of tickets with the head “Democratic Ticket,” transfixed with an arrow. The names on the Ucket were, however, the re publican nominees. Mr. {Landers denounce Uhose tickets asa “rascally republican trick.” “Democratic Ticke dropped 1t in. Rep!

NEW YORK THE PIVOTAL STATE—A FIGHT TO Bs MADE FOR rr, The democrats are beginning to pick up a little courage. Now the claim Is that after all New York and not Indiana ts the pivotal state, and that Tilden, in order to demonstrate his prowess in politics, will take off his coat and roll up his sleeves to’ carry it. Nor is democratic ny abandoned in New Jersey, Connecticut and Maine. ‘The advices from California sent to the demo- cratic congressional commistee are still hopeful for democratic success tn that state. Most of this intelligence, however, was communicated before the resuit of last ‘Tuesday’s -elections reached the Pacific slope. ‘The republicans now claim that there is no longer any doubt of Garfield’s election, but that, it is simply a question of how big a majority of the electoral college he will receive.

There has been no abatement of ardor or energy Shown. New subscriptions to the campaign funds are coming in, and the services of speakers are accepted as fast as tendered. The event of the week at republican headquarters was the presence this morning of Senator Dorsey ana ir. Gorman, Mr. Filley and Jno. C. New, of the committee, who arrived late last night They were warmly congratulated. Mr. Dorsey was thanked for his generalship, and the others for their difficult services. hey iaiormed the committee that the machinery whereby the re- publicans bad won last Tuesday was left in the same vigorous working order as before the elec- Uon, and that they confidently expect 15,000 majority for Garfield tn Indiana in November All four complain of fatigue, and show the effect of arduous labor. At the democratic headquarters Mr. Barnum Says there is ho reason why lodiana shou'd go republican in November; but, on the contrary,” every reason why it should go democratic. He says the democratic campaign machinery there Js in excellent condition, aud every effort will be made to secure success in November, He left Mr. English in charge of the continuance of the campaign. Regarding New York state especially, party feeling runs high just now, and both state com- mittees are at work in full blast. Much will depend upon the terms of rumored afitation be- ‘tween the republicans and Tammany to keep down the vote of the democracy in this city on the state ticket and secure a republican victory in the state in return for aiding John Kelly to victory in this city. Negotiations to that end are still under discussion. The democratic committee have rejected the proposition to pledge the democracy on the tarlif question and define civil service rules 1n favor of retain- ing present office-holders. The result was the Jetter of General Hancock published this morn- ing, intended to eliminate the tariff question from the canvass. NEWSPAPER VIEWS.
