FOUND RICH PLACES.
We at once began washing the gravel
our earnings being over $10 per day
to each Man. After three br four days
we got out oar whip -saws and cut time
ler for sluice boxes. We had been in
the gnlcb ten days when our 'boxes.
were finishes], and we 'began sluicing.
The first day's "clear-up" was nearly
$2,000. From this time we cleared
nearly $8,000 to $4,000 per day, and:
good luck so encouraged us that we
kept putting in sluices. Having seen
no signs of Indians, we naturally grew
somewhat careless, and on fatal Mon-
day—which I 'believe was May 3—our
party was widely nattered. Six had
gone across a low divide which separ-
ated us from another dream, ilearly a
mile, for gold. The rest wet'e at work
sloioing, and I was nut huntiug deer.
About 8 o'clock in the .afternoon I kil-
led a fine buck, and was hurrying to-
ward it to ent its throat, when I heard
a volley from the direction which the
prospecting had taken.. T was some-
what alarmed, and rushed up the
mountain.. -
A TERRIBLE SIGHT
met my gaze. Fully 500 mounted In-
dians were galloping down upon my
companions, and there was no possible
show -for me to warn or aid them as,
they were over half a mile distant. I
was ogmpelled to w tntss the massacre,
and was so horror-stricken by the
sight that had any Indians come upon
me they would have found me paralyz-
ed with terror, an easy • victim. For
two hours or more the red devils ling-
ered at our camp and amused them-
selves by cutting to pieces the bodies
of my friends and destroying our oat
'fit. As night grew on the Indians de
parted in groops, • until at last all were
gone. When they bad passed out of
sight I crept down to the ravaged camp
and looked over the bodies. Every
scrap of clothing bad been burned, and
T could find no mementoes to carry
home to their relatives and friends. A.
few biscuits and some beim which bad
been cast aside by the Iudtans I placed
in my bag, with the intention of strik-
ing out for home.and'once 1 chanced to
pass the snot` where we used to bury
our gold every night, and saw neat it
miners about 40 miles west of that
place. Troops from Fort garland aro
on their way to that point. Owing
to the terrible condition of the roads it
will be several days•before the news can
be confirmed. As yet all these stories
are subject to doubt. The feeling here.
is that the Indians are making proper -
atoms for the war path, and stirring
news may be expected,
THE 'FORTUNE BAY AFFAIR.
PRESIDENT HAYES' MESSAGE To comm.
Washington, D. C.,. May :17. -The
Speaker laid before the House a mesa
sage from the .President, transtuitting
the correapondeuee with Great Britain
in relation to the alleged outrage on
American eitizeus at Fortune Bay, in
Newfoundland, with a report from the
Secretary of •State. The President
sups:—•tIu 'transmitting this corres-
pondence report, 1. respectfully
pondonoe a ie- ask
the immediate and careful attention of
Congrees to the failure of accord be-
tween the two Governments as to the
interpretation and execution of the
fishing articles of the Treaty of Wash-
ington, as disolosed'in this correspond-
once elucidated the exposition of the
Seoretaty of State, I eouaur in the
opinions of that report as to the
measures proper to be taken by this
Government in the maintenance of
tights accorded to our fishermen by
the British aonoessions in the treaty
and in procuring suitable action to-
wards securing of indemnity for injury
for which this interest has already suf-
fered. i Acoordiugly I .recommend to
Congress the adoption of these meas-
ures with such attendant details of
legislation as in the wisdom of Con-
gress may seem expedient. Messages
and other documeuts were referred to
a committee.
Secretary Everts' report, accompany-
ing the Presidente's message to -day re-
garding the Fortune Bay affair, reeo>;n
mends -this" restoration of duties, upon
fish and fish oil, the produce of the
proviucial fisheries as they existed be-
fore the Treaty of Washington came
into operation; to so continue until the
two Governments are in accord as to
interpertation aud' exeoutiou of the
fishery articles of the treaty, and in
adjustment of the. grievances of our
fishermen from the itfractiou of their
rights under that treaty. Everts also
suggests auditing the claims of our
fishermen for injuries suffered by the
infraction or denial of treaty privileges
by convention with Great Britain or by
this Government for their indemnity.
