| Reports from the Lava Beds state that
the Modes have fed from their caves
and escaped into the mountains. Last
night Donald Mckay and his Warm
Spring scouts made reconnaissance,
and this morning their signal fires along
the bluffs told us that the foe had fed.
On his return Donald visited the place
evacuated by the Modocs. They had
had 80 camp fires around the watering
place-a sort Of natural cistern under the
bluff, with rock sides and sand bottom
the water of which had been exhausted,
thus forcing them to abandon the place,
which is not near as strong as that first
occupied by them. The party found the
body of Lieutenant Cranston and four
soldiers, a part OF the missing of the bat
tie of the 2Sth ultimo.
She squaws say the Modocs have gone
over into the Clear Lake country. They
are well clothed, and, being armed and
mounted, will probably place their fami-
lies in a secure hiding place in the noun
tains, and then carry on the strife a la
Guerrilla.
