| From our dispatches to-day we re
Iluctantly come to the conclusion tina,
the reported slaughter Of Genera
Custer and five companies Of the Sew
enth Cavalry is too true. 0
General George A. Custer was q
native Of Ohio, but West Point
graduate of 1861, from Monroe, Mich.
igan, and was about 81 years Of age.
He was celebrated In the Army Of
the Potomac as a daredevil, reckless,
roughriding cavalryman, and arose to
the rank Of Major General Of volun-
tcers at the close of the war.
At the reorganization and increase
of the Regular Army by Andrew
Johnson's Administration in 1896, he
was promoted from his lineal rank of
captain in the Regular Army to Lieu.
tenant Colonel Of the 7th Cavalry, the
somewhat notorious and unfortunate
Dick Sturgis being his Colonel, and
Reno, who has just made such a
narrow escape, his Major. g a
Since the war he has been on the
frontier in command of his regiment,
for the most part of the time by vir-
tue of his rank, his Colonel for pru-
dental purposes, being kept on re-
cruiting service and other harmless
diversions in the rear He has been a
prolific writer for the GALAXY and
other publications, and has published
a very interesting book, recounting
his experience on the frontier in the
meantime. He was also q prominent
participant in the convention which
assassinated Horace Greeley at Cin-
Custer was an invaluable cavalry
officer, II under the immediate eye
of level and cool-headed man like
Grant or Sheridan. Thrown upon
his own resources his ability was un-
equal to great responsibilities.
Brave, impetuous, and rash to
fault, it seems to us, at this distance,
with the meagrc information at hand,
that he threw away his life and that
Of his heroic command in an auda-
cious, i'll advised and indiscreet as
sault, having for its object the mo-
nopoly of the glory Of the campaign.

Another Account Of tho Custer Mas.
S0crCs

CHICAGO, July 6.-An Inter-O -Ocean's
special under date of Bfsmark, d. r.,
July !, says information from the
Sioux expedition, dated Mouth of
Big Horn, July, l, says Gen. Custer
left the mouth of the Rosebud with
twelve companies to follow the In.
dians, the trail of large band Of
Sioux. They followed up in the di-
rection of the Big Horn. The In
dians We're making for the eastern
branch of the Little Big Horn. Gen.
eral Ferry, with Gibbons command
of five companies of infantry and of
cavalry, started TO ascend the Big
Horn TO attack the enemy in the rear.
On the morning of the 10Th two
Crow scouts brought intelligence of
the battle of the previous day. On
the receipt of the news the command
commenced its march in southerly
direction, where smoke could be seen,
which indicated that Custer had fred
the Indian village.
The next morning the head of the
column entered a plain bordering on
the bank of the Little Big Horn,
where recently had stood an immense
Indian village, three miles in length.
The ground was strewn with slaugh-
tered horses, cavalry equipments, and
the dead bodies of nine Indian chiefs.
The clothing of Lieutenants Sturgis
and Porter were also found pierced
with bullets. Further on was found
the body of Lieutenant Mcintosh.
Juss then scout arrived with intel
ligence that Col. Reno was entrench-
ed with a remnant of the 9th cavalry
on bluff near by, waiting the re-
turn of Custer.
The command pushed OH and found
Reno with the remainder of the sew
en- companies. Reno's command had
been fighting since Sunday noon, the
25th, until relieved by Terry on the
night of the 26th. Tcrry's arrival
caused the Indians to retire. Reno
knew nothing of the fate of the other
five companies which had been sepa-
rated from them on the 25th, to make
an attack under Clusters command at
a point about three miles down the
right bank of the stream. Custer
had apparently made an attack on the
indians and was compelled to retreat,
but was cut off from the main body.
They were forced into the narrow re-
cess where the horses and men lay
slaughtered promiscnoNslyt Here
Were fonpd the bodies Of Custerj his
two brothers and nephew, Mr.. Reed,
Colonies Yates and Cook, and Cap
tain Smith, all lying in circle Of .
few yards, and here one after another
Cnster's brave command fell.
Not man escaped to tell the tale.

ST. LAKE, July 5.-The Times ex-
ira, dated Bozeman, Montana, July
3d, Z p. m, says Mr.. Taylor, bearer
of dispatches from the Little Horn to
TT. Ellis, arrived this evening and
reported the following:
The battle was fought on the 18th,
thirty or forty miles below Little
Horn. Custer attacked the Indians,
numbering from $500 to 1000 war
riors, OH one side, and Col. Reno was
to attack on the other. Three COM
panies were placed on hill rs a
reserve. Gen. Custer and fifteen Of
ticers and every man belonging to the
five companies were killed.
Reno retreated under the protec.
ton of the reserve. The whole mum.
ber killed is 3l5.
Gen. Gibbon joined Reno and the
Indians loft.
The battle ground looked like q
slaughter pen, as it really was, being
in narrow defile. The dead were
much mutilated.
The situation now looks serious
Gen. Terry arrived at Gen. Gibbon':
camp on steamboat, and crossed the
command over and accompanied it to
join Custer, who knew it was coming
before the fight occurred. Lieutenant
Crittenden, son of Gen. Crittenden
is among the killed.

1t is well to state the figures accurate

sion Of Governor Tilden's popularity,

SALT LAKE, July 4.-The special
correspondent of the Helena Mon
tana) Herald writes from Saltwater,
Montana, under date of July I'd:
Wiggins Taylor, the scout of Gen.
iibbon, got here last night direct
from Little Horn River. Gen. Gus
ter found the Indian camp of about
two thousand lodges on the Little
Horn, and Immediately attacked the
camp. Custer took five companies
and charged the thickest position of
the camp. Nothing is known of the
operations of this detachment, only
as they trace it by the dead.
Major Reno commanded the other
seven companies, and attacked the
lower portion of the camp. The In
dians poured in murderous fire
from all directions, besides the great
er portion fought on horseback. Gus
ter has two brothers, a nephew and
brother-in-law-all killed. and not
one of his detachment escaped.
Two hundred and seven were bur-
led in one place, and the killed are
estimated at 300, with only 81 wound
ed. The Indians surrounded Reno's
command and held them one day in
the hills. cut off from water, until
Gibbons command came in sight,
when they broke camp in the night
and left. -
The Seventh fought like tigers, and
were only overcome by mere brute
force. The Indian loss cannot be es-
timated, as they bore off and cached
most Of their killed. The remnant of
the Seventh cavalry and Gibbons
command are returning to the mouth
of the Little Horn, where the steam
boat lies.
The Indians got the arms of the
killed soldiers. There were seven
teen commissioned officers killed.
The whole of Clusters family died
at the head of the column. The loss
is not known, as both the Adjntant
and Sergeant Major were killed.
The Indian camp is from three to
four miles long, and was twenty
miles up the Little Horn from its
mouth.
The Indians actually pulled the
men off their horses in some instances.
give this as it was told me by Tay-
lor, who was over the field after the
battle.
The above is confirmed by other
letters, which say Custer met fear
full disaster.
