1t Is ascertsined beyond all dispute that
the Arapahoe Indians, who for some time
have been fed by the Government at Fort
Halleck as friendly Indians, have, been the
perpetrators of most of the outrages com
mitied on the overland mail route, west Of
Denver. They sscertAined by some means
that they were suspected, and have taken
70 the war path openly and deaAntly.
Troops are in pursuit. There are no
friendly Indisnss east OF north of Denver
and Camp Collins, and no peace can be
expected until they are severely chsstised.
The success they have met with during tho
past year has made thom exceedingly bold
and daring in their exploits. Three col
umns, now preparing to march against
them, are only detained by want of sup
plies, which are now enroute from the
Missouri river and daily expected. +'
