Cornwall, Ont, May ‘2.-â€"Jake Ice, 2:. St. Regis warrior. Was shot and instantly killed at St. Regis by Lieut.Col. Sher- wood, Chief of the Dominion Police, yes- terday morning; two other redskins were badly wounded, and four chiefs carried ofl into captivity. The cause of the trouble dates away back several years, and was primarily the objection of the St. Regis band to submit to the Indian Act, and allow an election of chiefs to be held. On March 27. 1899, when InSpector Hogan and Policeman Chamberlain of the Dominion Police were sent down from Ottawa by Lieutenant-Colonel Sher- wood to assist Indian Agent Long in holding an election, they met with sav- age treatment at the hands of the red men. Everything seemed to have quieted down till yesterday, when, according to Indians who came from St. Regis, a squad of five or six Dominion Police arrived at St. Regis on the tug Beaver of Cornwall, which was chartered for the purpose. They at once arrested Chiefs Jake Fire, Louis Thomas and Angus Pateneaude, who were charged with be- ing leaders of the riot on March 27. and of assaulting officers in the exccutionfiof their duty. Huntingdon, Que, May 2.-â€"Lieut.-Col. Sherwood; chief of the Dominion Police, arrived here last night, having in custody three St. Regis Indians, Jake Fire. Angus Pateneaude and Louis Thomas. The in- quest as to the death of Jake Ice will probably take place here to-day. Mr. Sherwood Gave Himself Up. LU“ “av;- The news that the officers were again on the reservation and making arrests spread like wildfire, and the police had hardly got their prisoneis into Mr. Long’s office when the place was sur- rounded by a. mob of wild, excited red men. They forced their Way inside the building, despite the threatening muzzles of the policemen’s revolvers. They want- ed to rescue the prisoners, and things looked so desperate that the chief decided to fire his revolver. The shot took effect ‘I’ 1-- T-.. 0 fire in: L'uvuuui. -uv -uv- --- in the arm of the ringleader. Jake Ice. but did not stop him. The chief fired again and killed him instantly. The other Indians then withdrew. These were the only shots fired. No one else was in- jured. Ottawa, May 2.-â€"The Department of Justice received a despatch from Commis- sioner Sherwood from Huntingdon, Que, informing the department of a. shooting afiair at the St. Regis reservation. The Indian, it is understood. Was shot in self- defcnce. Mr, Sherwood gave himself up to the police, and is awaiting the decision of the coroner’s jury. ' Parry Sound, Ont., May 2.â€"â€"An in- quest is now being held by Coroner Stoner on the body of Thomas Snell of Brockville, who was supposed to have dropped off the railwav bridge last Nov- ember. The post-mortem examination made by Drs. Walton and Appelbe indi- cates that the man was not drowned, but that death was caused by a blow on the side of the head, inflicted by a pointed instrument, as a hole is found over the right ear, penetrating to the base of the brain. It might have been inflicted with a piece of Wood with a nail driven through it. The inquest Was adjourned yesterday afternoon for other evidence.
