St. Paul, 30.-A special to the Pioneer Press says: An Indian arrived at Fort Ellis in full paint, with a scalp hanging to his belt, bringing the news of bloody fighting between Mandrills, Stoneys and Salteaux Indians. A band of Mandrills raided a camp of Salteaux and killed nine persons. A band of Salteaux, under Ocean Man, gave chase and killed nine of the Mandrills. A band of Stoneys are also following the Mandrills. More fighting is expected.
Another account says the village attacked made desperate resistance and killed thirteen Mandrills. The whole border is in a blaze of excitement, and the fleeing Mandrills are making their way to the American territory, whence they came. It is thought the Stoneys and Salteaux will pursue them to this side, and it is expected the scene of war will be transferred to the United States.
