Special Dispatches to the Ellsworth American.
Modoc War.


New YORK, April %.
A special despatch from the Lava Bed
Camp the 2lst, contains the following-for
two days there have been no Modocs to
fight with, they have gone, 1t Is uncertain
where, but it is expected to hear soon OF
their whereabouts and destruction. Thurs
day night, two troops OF cavalry, and
seventy Warm Spring Indians with three
DAYS ra,ions. started on the east OF the Lava
Beds. and Friday morning two more troops
of cavalry left for a hunt for the Modocs.
1t is believed impossible for the remain
der of the Modocs encountered with wo-
men and children to escape. An old Mo
doc squaw was captured yesterday who
stated that one Of the shells during a
yssent attack fell ar council of Indians,
and that lone Eyed Jake" picked it up,
took it to Schonchin and another Indian
when it exploded, killing all three. She
stated that four others were killed by
musket balls the same day, and their bodies
hid. 1t appears from the bodies found and
the traces of those burned that l6 or IL
Modocs were killed. and an equal number
wounded. The matter now is reduced to
hunting the Indians in the rocks. and ii
will be sometime before they are all des-
troyed 1t is feared that the Modocs have
broken into squads of five or six and
scattered. We shall know more to-mdr-
row.
SAN Francisco, April 81.
\ courier arrived at Yreka tonight with
the following news from the front: April
18th, Col. Perry, Lieut.. Miller and ITO men
left the camp at sunrise this morning on
the scout Southwark. Nothing is to be
done in the camp until they return unless
the Modocs make an attack. which is not
probable. A part of the command will re-
turn tomorrow night. and part will pro-
coed to Willow Spring, land route. and de-
termine whether the Modocs have fed that
way. The Indians were seen in close
proximity to the camp to-day. Fortifica-
tons will be thrown up at points command
Eleven dead bodies and one live Modoc
were found in cave Of the Lava Beds to-
day, making l6 warriors slain. The bodies
OF the dead were burned. The number of
Indians wounded is unknown. Some OF
the bodies were horribly mangled by shells.
Six soldiers and one civilian have been
slain and eleven soldiers wounded, two
severely and four disabled by sprained an
kes. Mrs. Meacham was within three
lies of the Lava Beds on the 18th. when
she was turned back.
Meaeham is doing FINELY; the day after
tomorrow he will be taken to Ferris ranch
by boat to Lost river, and thence by am
bulance to the ranch. The Warm Spring
Indians and the cavalry will probably COM
municate with each other to-day. Col. Ma
son has moved his camp into Capt. Jacks
Cave. Three shells fell in the ravine in
the centre ftheir camp scattering most of
them. the women and children were re-
moved before the massacre orthe peace
commissioners, and therefore large por-
ton Of them are alive.
