RUMORS OF FIGHTING A Battle Said to Be in Progress Near THE B AND 0. RAILWAY STRIKE ENDED Death of Emma Abbott This Morn- ing in Salt Lake City. STOCKS ACTIVE AND STRONG. A DISASTROUS Rumored Fighting Within Three Ailes of Pine Kidge Agency. Omana, Nep., Jan. 5.—A disastrous battle is reporied in progress within three miles of Pine Ridge. Nothing definite has been learned as Neb., mys heavy cannonading has been going on north of bere this morning, but no news of as battle has been received. Omana, Nes.. Jan. 5.—The Bee's correspond- ent at Pine Ridge agency telegraphs: As to the situation here, considered in ite entirety, the indications that one of the greatest battlesin his tory isalmost at hand are increasing. The report of every scout adds new and strong support to ‘these indications that were ouly emp! by the bloody affair on Wounded Knee. Gen. Miles believes exactly this and bas said so in strong words, The small handful of Indian employes here affirm it. Before the terrific clash comes they want to try and rescue their relatives from the enemy's camp and are now interceding with the authorities for rmission, at the risk of their ives, to make the attempt. These Indians in government employ also express the hope that they can induce tany of those who were friendly before the Wounded Knee battle and were remaining here according to instraction also to come in and be saved from the certain annihilation that awaits them within the ranks of the hostiles. Extensive riflo pits are re- ported being dug twelve miles west of here by the hostiles and the report is of such a weture ‘that the authorities rely upon its truthfulness. Last night the hostiles burned many houses bel to the settlers along the White river and fnished killing the last remnant of the great herd of government cattle that they Taided wo heavily about a month ago and have been drawing on ever since.
