NEw YoRK. July ia 7,ibsns special
from Crooks command says: 10 Wa
Crooks intention originally To renew ope-
rations against the Sioux upon the arrival
~ the < train and additional infantry
from Fort Fcttefman. but the fatal results
attending Terry's expedition suggested the
.propriety of adding eight companies Of the
Fifth Cavalry. under Merritt, at or near
Fort Laramie, TO his command. The
wagons and infantry arrived on the 18th.
hut a. yet there are no certain tidings Of
the Whereabouts Of Merritt. who, on the
10th. went in pursuit Of . body Of Chey-
ennes, II IL not impossible that the Sioux
have resolved TO keep to the main chain of
mountains and swing around south toward
the head of Powder river. AMI debauch on
the plains toward Fort Fetterman. Crook
does not think 1t advisable for Terry 10
Join him until after engaging the enemy.
who could see Terry long before he could
effect a junction. Four Crow Indian
couriers from Terry. at the mouth 81 the
Big Horn, started back tonight with dis
patches ON this subject. The Sioux cannot
move their families and effects through
the rough mountains rs rapidly ~ the
soldiers can follow them. and hence they
must either make stahu W raw '

orders to Join this command at once. This
delay greatly complexities the situation
here and ~justiiies Crook In his proposed
advance. Those eight companies Of the
Fifth Cavalry are considered worth At least
twelve Of tho Infantry present. Both the
officers and men are full Of what the
soldiers call esprit. and should the enemy
cling TO the timber and rocks, q good ac-
count will be rendered by the men on foot.
A small party Of Snake scouts will be sent
ont to-nirh, and enleayor 10 directly To-
cate the sioux. This reconnaissance will
require two or three days time, and In the
meantime the wagons AMI the main com
mand will work their way to lind q camp

,xpect.l that n baud Of Utes and possibly
a hand Of Hammock allies will Join the ex-
petition before the next move. Inese Al,
