Anxiety at Washington Regarding His Whereabouts.
Washington, August 30.-General Terry does not credit the report that Sitting Bull and his band have returned to United States territory, and thinks the Indians seen and reported as Sitting Bull's band are a small part of his tribe which never went across the Canadian border at all but remained within our territory. A dispatch has been sent to the Canadian authorities asking whether Sitting Bull has actually returned to American soil. The Sitting Bull commission will not leave until a reply to this dispatch is received. Secretary Schurz is confident that Sitting Bull is still in Canada.
