SAN FRANCISCO, June GA special
correspondent of the Associated Press
sends the following dispatch, dated a:
the camp at Comss Prairie, June 21:
ave marched from Mount Idaho here
on Monday evening, distance OF ten
miles. \ esterday Gen. Howard made 8
recon oissnce in force, leaving a guard
in camp. We proceeded to tie scene of
Col. Perry's late battle and found and
buried twenty.seven dead soldiers,
which leaves six bodies yet to be found.
Lieutenant Toller's body was not
found. Those buried we're in
such an advanced stage OF de-
composition as to be unrecognizaole.
All the arms and equipments were taken
by the Indians and most of the bodies
scslped. We found and brought into
camp one Manuel, one of the settlers re-
ported dead after the massacre on Sal
mon river. Hei wounded in two places.
The number of murders thus lar is one
woman, two children, fifteen men and
thIrty-tbree soldiers of Colonel Perry's
command killed and missing. The
details OF the murder are horrible. There
are several women at Mt. Idaho,
the wives OF settlers, who
were rescued after suffering
terrible outrage. The result ofthe re
connlssnce was the discovery OF the In
dams encsmped across the Salmon river,
about twelve miles from the camp. AS
near rs could be learned, they have about
200 warriors They have no lodges with
them, but q large amount OF stock is Wis.
ibIe. The country is OF the most wild
and rugged character, the mountains and
canyons making it difficult TOR the troops
TO travel, added 10 natural obstacles,
heavy and continuous rains have made
trails impossible. 1t is Gen. Howsrd's
intention to move the camp beyond
Colonel Perry's recent engagement
about seven miles distant, and II poSsib 9
tomorrow will get the artillery in posi-
ton, on this side of the Salmon river, and
try to reach the enemy. Colonel Perry
goes back this morning TO meet and
nasted forward the advancing column OF
troops en- route for Fort Lapwai. They
should overtske US tonight If the In
disns remain where they are cow fight
will take place tomorrow or Friday at
the latest. No further news from State
