Winnipeg, Han., Aug. 24.—Ifotwlthistandthe mandates of the court, the threat of the Federal government and the Canadian Pacific railway, tha people ot Winnipeg still continua . to build tbeir new railroad to the" boundary and defy all to stop them. They arc practically in rebellion, and Sir John Macdonald's atitemeut that ha would atop the building of the road if he had to lend British troops here, has created the most Intense excltoment and bitternetif Instead of ffightening the poople the*D threats make them more determined. They are confident;.their ability to hold their own in any emergency. The people declare themselves ready to take up aftns (l'Cht for tbeir cauie whenever lets necessary. That necessity must very aoon alia*. in. Sir Donajd , Smith, the Canadian Pacific railway magnate, obtained two more injunctions in the courts to-day to stop the building of the road, but the local- government ordered the sheriff and #th«r court officials not to serve the writs. ~ Even should Sir Donald serve them personally no attention would be paid to him. • Rebellion is certain unless the Federal government should back down. Their position is practically Ay the Canadian Pacific railway. However, It is difficult to see bow they can back down, and Sir John's warlike talk /conveys the idea that he iio«s not intend to. "hie trouble is promoting the strongest annexation sentiment, and it would not be surprising if a unanimous effort were made to place Manitoba under American rule. One or two men who refused to give the new railroad a right of way across theiijj property have been taken in iiiuul by the police, who are keeping watoh on the grade, with orders to arrest all who Attempt any interference.

Under the laws the Indians are encouraged to sever their tribal relations, and are entitled to seek homes and sslacljjons of layds on the public domain. W4np*»'«o information that the presence of these Indians In Cblorado is for that purpose. I recommend that while the force of troop* is in the locality all proper means be used by it to induce the Indians to go to and remain upon their reservation." k Li 'U At soout a* the Indians arp 1$ troops they will not only defend themselves, 4Dut will at once attack settlements and settlers, and in order to sttofr an Indian war the assistance of troop* will be withheld until it is necessary for ths protection of citisens, and every effort will be made to induce the Indians to return guietly to their reservation.
