THE INDIAN WAR,
F0rSylhe C0rrccts Several Erroneous
slaIemCntS-Terry and Crooks
Command.
The Situation Regarded Highly Favorable
Fully Four Thousand Men In the
Field Under the Very Best
Officers.

ST. PAUL. Mimi, August 10. Gen,
eral Forsythe, OF General Steadman's
stall, passed through the city yester.
day, having left General Terry's camp,
at the mouth OF the Rosebud, a week
ago last Tuesday, In conversation
with army officers while here General
torsythe corrected several erroneous
statements recently telegraphed from
Bismarck, and forwarded from this
point, among others one stating Gen.
eral Terry had fallen back eighty miles,
which Is the morest nonsense, and
gives a false impression To the public.
There was no falling back at all. The
evening Oeioro General Forsythe left
Terry's camp, scout from Crooks
command reached Terry. Crook was
then somewhere near the headwaters
OF Rosebud river, or between that and
Tongue river. General Terry was at
the mouth of the Big Horn river, aud
IN order TO make communication be.
tween himself and Crook easier, he
dropped dowd the river to the mouth
of the Rosebud. Between this point
and Crooks command the distance Is
no greater than from the mouth Of the
Big Horn, while the country to
DO trRVNrsed Is infinitely more
favorable for the march OF troops
Another misunderstanding forward
ed, is TO the effect that the
troops under General Terry are dis
heartened at the prospect before them.
Colonel Smith, who accompanies Gen
eral Forsythe, tlatly' contradlcts this
story. On the contrary Terry and his
men are in the best possible spirits,
anu are only too anxious to meet the
savages in fair, square fight. There
are no fears as to the result, The In
dams, rs far rs could be learned, were
still supposed to be massed somewhere
between Rosebud river and Big Horn.
The impression prevails that one of
two alternatives was left them, either
to move to the eastward and toward
British America, or retire southwark
to the Big Horn mountain, though
they were In front OF or In close prox-
imity to Crooks command was not
believed, they would show fight or al
low General Crook or General Terry
to get chance at them in a body. 1t
may be stated on the authority ofthose
best posted and who bring the very
latest news from General Terry, that
the situation il regarded as highly ia
vorable. Fully four thousand men are
in the field, under the very best officers
and the men are in excellent condition
and spirits. Supplies OF all kinds are
equal to every requirement. The
chances for early coalition between
the forces OF Terry and Crook are ex-
tremely favorable. The Indians, though
active, are not anxious for decisive
engagement, and in all respects no
dal ger of reverses to troops Is to be ap-
pretended in any quarter.

CINCINNATI, August l0.--The Catho-

an article from Archbishop Purcell
defining the attitude of the Catholic
