Oklahoma City, Ok. (Special).
Five companies of Oklahoma militia
marched against Crazy Snake's band
of Creek Indians, half-breeds and
negroes entrenched in the Hickory
Hills, seven miles from Henryetita.
The heavily armed troops are un-
der orders either to capture ex -
terminate the murderous band which,
since Thursday, has caused the death
of six men, the wounding of many
others and brougnt about a condi-
tion of terror in Henryetta, Pierce
and all the surrounding country.
The troops left Henryetta at 3
o'clock and reached Crazy Snake's
camp at 9 o'clock P, M. They found
it desected and every tepee, hut and
tent in flames. The Indians had fled
to a stronger position to the north,
where a battle likely will be fought.
Crazy Snake's men number
200, all armed with modern
and plentifully supplied with
munition. They had prepared
months for this, their final
