II Joseph laying the blame Of his uprisinI
upon White Bird, had promised Genera
} Howard to surrsnder.-the latter assertin,
as follows:
"Joseph may make complete surrender
Tomorrow morning. My troops will NICE

be treated with justice. Their conduct t
be completely investigated by cour

myself. Col. n. P. Miller is designated
to receive Joseph and his arms"
1t seems, however, that Joseph merely
wished to gain time for the escape of biz
band. On the 10th the Red Heart and
Looking Glass surrender took place-they
were made prisoners and will be tried ,
but Joseph had started for the buffalo
country, and was being pursued BY the
troops. On the 18th Gen. Howard tele.
|graphed thus:
"A majority of the hostile Indians have
fled by the Lo Lo Fork trail eastward to
the buffalo country. Thirty.five men,
women and children have Voluntarily
surrendered themselves. Gen. Howard is
in pursuit and directs that information bel
sent to Gen. Sherman and the posts east
of the Bitter Root Mountains.:'
