The volunteers are 10 need of provisions aud means
of transportation, and viii have great difficulty in OBJ
Gaining Them Our State Government will not pay for
carrying on war beyond borders; the Federal
officers have no authority TO support volunteers in such
q case, and the expense is 30 great that indi-
vidusls are unwilling to bear the cost and yet without
provisions and means of transportation nothing be
done For want of them the troops have already lost
several weeks of time. Nothing of note has been
done for ten days past. II is said that the Indians
collected about Pyramid Lake to the number of 800
or 1000 under the command of young Wianemucca,
sl eager for the fray but disposed 70 wait until the
white men come TO attack them. Winnemucca has the
credit of being very brave and bold and good leader
for an Indian. 1t is expected that Col Hays will,
therefore, have sharp fight near Pyramid Lake, if
be should march his troops TO that place: Many Of
The Indians are well armed. some with ShaPs
rifles.
Some of the Sacramento volunteers have aban-
oned Camp Hays and returnedto their homes, highly
discusted with the treatment which they re-
received in Washoe. They enlisted infantry, but
on arriving in Carson Valley their officers ordered
chem to convert themselves into cavalry, and for that
purpose they were authorized 70 seize all the horses ia
the country This took place before Hays was elected
TO the command of the regiment, and as soon as he
was placed in power, he ordered the Sacramento men
20 be smoune and the horses to be returned to their
owners-to the great indignation OF the Sacramento
volunteers.

Rumor says that the Pah-Ute and Shoshonee tribes,
which have long been hostile to each other have made
an offensive and defensive alliance for the purpose,

was under the impression that the Pah-U tes called
themselves Shoehonees and were terms of friend
shin with the Shoshonees in the northern and north
eastern parts Of Utah. There is 20 much exaggeration
and lying about these reports of the war; that nobody
knows what TO believe.
