The Veen Agree to Fight no more Tber Chtol Onrav Order i aDiivea from the White River Agency Order from Gen. Sherman: ".Washington. October 18. The follow ing has been received by the Indian Com missi on err Lix Pino Aeencv. Oct. 9lb. Employe Brady and an escort pf Indians have just arrived from WhiW River. The Utes recognized and obeyed Ouroy's order. They withdrew and will fight no more unless fnrr.ed to do so. If the soldiers are now stopped the trouble can be stopped by the Peace (Jommission to investigate oubbbbs, and let the blame rest where it may. This wHl save life, expense and distress, if it can be accomplished. Later. A runner is just in from the Southern Ute Agency, with a letter from the Ae-ent. A general council has been held. The Utes will Obey Ouray's request. Thev will stay at home and take no part in the White River trouble, and request Ouroy to inform them of their decision. Signed Stanley, Agent. I concur in the above. TSignedl Oubat, Head Chief of the Utes. Denver, October 18. Sapavaneiro, one of the moat reliable sub-chiefs, who was sent bv Ourav to the White River Agency, has returned to Los Pinos Agency. He reoorts that he saw white women and chil dren at the White River Agency, in charge of Chief Douglas?. He saw one of the em ployes, who was present when the Indians made the altacK on tne Agency, l nis man killed one Indian and wounded another. Saoavanetro thinks three or four more em ployes are alive. Meeker was killed. The report as given in the papers, that Sapava neiro and Shavano took part in the fight, is untrue, and it is also not sure that Uhief Douglass led the White River Utes. Ouray thinks Jack, a White River Ute, command ed the Indians in the charge on Thorn burgh's command. Secretary Schurz immediately called on Gen. Sherman with the above dispatch, and as the result of the conference, Gen. Sher man sent the following instructions to Gen. Sheridan : "The Honorable Secretary of the Inte rior has this morning called with a dispatch, given at length below, which is communi cated for your information, and which should go for what it is worth to Generals Crook and Merritt The latter on the spot can tell if the hos tiles have ceased fight ing. If so OeD. Merritt should go in every event to the Agency to ascer tain the actual condition of the facts. All Indians who oppose most be cleared out of the way if they resist. If they sur render their arms and ponies they should be. held as prisoners, to be disposed of by superior orders. The Secretary of the In terior will send a special agent at once to Ouray, who is believed to be honest and our friend. He may prevent the Southern Utes from being involved, and the Interior Department can befriend him afterwards, by showing favor to some of his special friends. But the murderers of. the agent and employes must be punished, as also those who fought and killed Major Thorn burgh and men. Please acknowledge re ceipt. W. T. Sherman, General.'

Interesting Political Caaea-Consti tutionality of civil Rights Aeta to be Tested. By Telegraph to the Morning Star.) WAsniNGTON.October 12. The Supreme Court reassembles to-morrow. On Tues day the Court will commence the hearing of argument in a series of political cases, which, on account of their public impor tance, have been advanced. The first case to be argued is the petition for a mandamus in behalf of the State of Virginia against Hon. Alexander Rives, Judge of the United States Court for the Western District or Virginia, who removed into the Federal Court the cases of two co lored men, indicted for murder, on the ground that they were prevented from hav ing any colored men upon the jury. At torney uenerai Devens and Mr. wmougu by, of Vs.. for Judge Rives, and Mr. Field, Attorney General of Virginia, and Judge Robertson for the State. The next argument will be beard on the petition for habeas corpus in the case of Bon. J. D. uole, Judge or a Virginia mate Court, who has been indicted in the U. 8. District Court, for alleged violation of the Federal statute of March 3, 1875, in refus ing to put colored men upon a jury in a case where a colored man was indicted for murder. The principal arguments will be made by Attorney General Devens and Mr. Field, respectively, for the United States and for the petitioner. These two cases will bring up the -ques tion of the constitutionality of the various civil rights acts. Immediately after these will probably be heat d the case of Strander vs. State of West Virginia, which is that of a colored man who was convicted of crime under the Statute of West Virginia, .which expressly excludes colored men from getting on juries, the contention of plaintiff in error being that said law of that state is uncon stitutional. Attorney General Devens and Mr. Willoughby will appear before the plaintiff in error, and it is understood that Senator Gordon, of Georgia, has been re tained to assist the Attorney General of West Virginia in defending the suit WBSt"vTr6IN I A k Collision of Trains Several Perso ns Killed! and Injured A ittl.takc In Train Orders the Canae.

MIDNIGHT SPARKS. THE INDIAN W Alt. MERRITT'jJ COMMAND AT WHITE RIVER- FINDING THE DEAD WOMEN ANO CHIL DREN MISSING INDIANS ALL GONE. By Telegraph to the Morning Star. Rawlins, Wy., October 13. Two cou riers have arrived from tbe White River Agency. From them is learned tbe follow ing: Uen. Merritt advanced upon tne Agency on the 11th. On his way bo found many dead bodies, among others that of Carl Goldstein, who left here with government supplies for the White River Agency. He was shot twice tnrocgn tne suouiuer, and was two miles from his wagons. A teamster. named Julius Mooie, who was with him when be left here, was found about one hundred yards from Goldstein, with two bullet-holes in bis breast, and bis body backed and mutilated. As the command advanced they came to an old coal mine, and in it was found the dead body of an Agency employe named Dresser, fie bad evidently been wounded and crawled into the mine to die. His coat was folded up and placed under his bead for a pillow, and in bis pockets a letter was round wnicn. as near as the courier remembers, was as follows: "White River. September 29. 1 o'clock P. M. Maj. Thobnbvboh: I will come with Chief Douglass and another Chietand meet you to-morrow. Everything quiet here, and Douglass is living the United atates llag. We have been on guard for three nights and will be to-night not that we expect any trouble, but because there might be. Did you have any trouble coming through the canyon ? (Signed) a. C. Meeker, U. S. Indian Agent." On entering the Agency a scene of des olation was presented. All the buildings, except one, were burned to the ground; not a living thins was in sisht exceot the com mand. The Indians had taken everything and decamped. The women and children were missing, and nothing could be found to indicate what had become of them. They have been murdered and burned. or taken away as hostages. Tbe dead body olD ather Meeker was round at a dis tance of about one hundred yards from his house, lying on his back, shot through the head. Tbe left side of his bead had been smashed in with some blunt instrument, a piece of a barrel stave driven into his mouth, and one of his bands and arms badly burned. The dead body of W. a, fost, Father Meeker's assistant, was round between the building and the river, with a bullet bole through his left ear and one un der tbe eye. He and Father Meeker were naked. Another employe, named Eaton, was found dead and stripped naked. His face was eaten by wolves, and there was a bullet hole in his left breast. Frank Dresser, a brother of the man found in the coal mine, was found badly burned; a bul let had passed through his breast. The bodies of lfiaton. Thompson, frice and Kridge, and all the other emyloyea not before named, were also found. JLridge was found two miles from tbe Agency, naked, and with a bullet hole through his head. In the position occupied by the Indians during Tbornburgh's battle, on a breast work made of stone, was found the dead body of an unknown white man, dressed in buckskin, lie was sitting on bis knees, and bad his gun in position to Ore, and was shot through the forehead. From this it appears that tbe Indians are not alone .in their hellish work. The impression among the officers of Merritt's command is that the Indians who fought Thornburgh numbered at least 700. rJEAU rvIVER, VIA rvAWLINB. UCIODS 16. -The Indian reports, brought in from the Agency by the Los Pinos Utes, say that thirty-seven Indians were killed in the fight of tbe 29tb of September and tbe siege until October otb, tbe date ot Uen. Merritt's arrival. Rawlins, October 13. Lieuts. Bourke and Schuyler arrived here to-day, and an authentic report is had of Geo. Merritt and command since the march to the front. Oo tbe afternoon of tbe day on ' which he ar rived at Capt. Payne's camp he had a fight with tbe Indians, and bad to move camp about one mile distant from Payue's old position that night, on account of tbe stench created by the dead bodies. Gen: Merritt moved upon the Agency, and reached there .Saturday. The Indians are retreating southward, and it is expected that in small bands they will drop into tbe various agencies, and thus covering up themselves it will never be known who were the war riors who opened battle on Major Thorn burgh. The dismounted companies and the wounded will be here in seven dayp. YELLOW FEVER.
