          INDIAN OUTRAGES
   North Platte, Neb., Nov 22.-- Ben Case, an employee
of M. Keith, was found murdered forty miles up the North
Platte this morning. The murderer is unknown, though
the killing was done after the Indian fashion--saddle
cut to pieces. Seventy head of horses were stolen from
Paxton and sixty from the Shiedley ranche, on the North
Platte, on Wednesday last, supposed by Indians. Major
North, from the Dismal River, reports a small band of
Spotted Tail Indians down this way seeking horses.
