Tronbla Kmrtig.
Oklahoma. I. T., Dec 81.—'The cause
of the apprehended riot feared last nigbt
was a renewal of the old trouble betweea
the Seminole and Kickapoo factions. The
latter have been indulging in threats to
lynch some of tbe Seminole leaders and
burn the building occupied by the Ga.
zette. the organ of the Seminole party.
The mayor belongs to the Kickapoo fao
tion and the Meminoles, who are in the
majority in council, will o.it let him ap-
point policemen. The Seminoles want
an election for two vacancies in council,
but tbe Kickapoos oppose it. because it
will increase the Semtnole majority.
United States Marshal Walker apprehends
trouble, but not before election.

his boat had been fastened to a bark
parted and it is supposed he was blown
out to sea. The fishing schooner Com-
modore arrived here having on board
tbe after half of Dillon's boat. It was
evidently cut in two by a steamers bow.
It is supposed that Dillon was run down
in the dark and little hope is entertained
of his escape.

vor of parliamentary agitation. It was
