FORT WALLACE, Kansas, q.
The Chief Scout just from Colonel
Forsythe and the camp on the Delaware
Fork of the North Fork Republican
River, reports that Captain Carpenter
who starte d from near Cheyenne on the
25th reached Col Forsythe an the 25th.
He saw no Indians on the way; he saw
the bodies of or more warriors, evil
IDENTIFY killed in battle, nearly 20 miles
away.
The command which left here on the
oath, under Col Bankhead, with provi-
Bions, supplies, &c, arrived soon after
Captain Carpenter. They were attacked
on the way by party of Indians. Col
FOrsythe lost 5 II en- killed and II
wounded, and all his horses the Indian
loss was about so killed and wounded,
besides quantity of sick. The fight
the first day is described as being the
most desperate that has ever taken place
on the plains, the Indians making
charge after charge, and sometimes COM
ing within SO feet of men. The island
on which the troops were having only
few bushes and there being but Il small
amount of grass, they were almost en-
tirely exposed, their only defcnces being
breast works of sand, thrown up by their
hands. The party were frequently OBJ
ligcd to suspend their works, to resist
the attacks of the Indians, who made
several charges and rode around the
breast works. The Indians were Sioux,
Cheyennes, and Arapahoes. They num-
Der from 600 to 700, and were well arm
ed with Spencer carbines. 1t is cstimat-
ed that they fired 1000 rounds, besides
arrows. But little fighting was done on
the ccond day after that, though n par
ty of Indians remained in the vicinity.
She scouts saw trails of large parties
driving many horses and mules, and
going south and east. 1t is thought that
, the design of the Indians is to get be-
low the Arkansas.
Col Forsythe's command was to start
for Fort Wallace this morning.
