HE RuMoRED INDIAN WAR ALI HUM- BuG-Rumors of WAR! WAR!ie have been flying among us thick and fast, for se- veral days-representing that serious difficult aes had occurred suddenly last week, between the Creeks on the one hand, and the Osages and the Pawnee Mohaws on the other. that a bloody battle had been fought between the Greeks and Osages, and that the latter had completely destroyed village of the former and mastered several hundred of its inhab- itants including linen, women and children. j The flying of expresses, the roll the drum the despatch of "horse, foot and dragoons'' from Fort Gibson, the running of terrified women with their children, and of frightened traders with their treasures, from near the scene ol ''conhict and carnage,n all served to give weight to the rumors and to create much anxiety and apprehension utfrom the fol- lowing letter received, '.per erpreSs'' late last evening, Qor which we are much indebted to the writer,) 1t will be seen that the whole affair IS great humbug, and originated from some panic stricken women.

 There Is no war-not even tthe symntom of sign'' of War. No Pawnees nor Osages have fallen, no battle has been fought; no Creek village surprised and its three hundred inhabitants massaered. The military orders are countermanded. All is peace The anx- ious may therefore, become easy, the women and traders return to their respective duties, and those who are ever ready to serve their country, the volunteers, stay at home. The Creeks and Osages are still friends, and will remain so, we hope, "as long as the grass grows or the water runs.9

 FoRT GIBSON, 26 Feb, 1915.

 SIR.-The run or of 'sHar upon the From tier' that was said to be going on between the Creeks and Osages or other border tribes, turns out to be without the SHghtcst foada- lion. The U. s. Troops were ordered out, and have been recalled by Express. It seems some three weeks back the Creeks had some difficulty with party of 'sPawnee Mohaws,n in which one of the latter was killed In consequence, the Creeks were expecting an attack upon one of their upper towns In the mean time party of some 25 or 30 Osa- ges approached this town 10 buy, or trade for corn. The men of the town were absent- the women took fright and fled to the lower towns. IHiS was tortured and rumored into a war-in which 300 were killed. The source of information 10 the military was di- rect.
