The Indians.

SALT LAKE CITY, Aug D.
The Indians left Hole-in-the Rock sta
tion on the 10Th or Goth, on the approach
of Gen. Howard, going east or northwest,
and surprised Howard's men, who had
charge of the pack ANIMALS and loose
stock, at daylight on the morning of the
Goth, at Comas Meadows, which is about
twenty miles east of Dry Creek stage
station. The Indians got away with
about 100 of Howard's pack animals, and
also about thirty horses belonging to the
Montana volunteers.
Capt. Norwood and Col Sanford fol-
lowed the Indians with three companies
of cavalry, and overlook them about six
miles distant, when there was a skirmish,
in which one soldier was killed and six
wounded. The wounded soldiers were
taken to Pleasant Valley station, where
one, named Samuel A. Glass, has since
died.
Howard has been reinforced by Capt.
Bainbridge, from Fort Hall, with one
company and about fifty Bannock In
dians, and are at present in pursuit of
the hostiles, who are supposed to be
making for Henry's Lake, which is about
| eighty miles northeast from the stage
road, where crossing was made. How.
ards force was camped yesterday morn
ing on Shotgun Creek, which is about
forty-tive miles distant from the stage
road.
On the Goth Howards force was in
creased by the arrival of Col. Miller with
about 300 infantry in wagons. Howard
had with him about $50 cavalry in addi-
tion to the force with Capt. Bainbridge
All but eight or ten Virginia City volun-
teers have returned home.
The Indians have not been in any hur-
ry or anxious to avoid fight. They are
supposed to number 400 or 500 and seem
to be making their way toward the Crow
country on the Yellowstone.
A dispatch from Virginia City, Mont,
dated to-day, says: Two scouts from Fort
Ellis got here at six o'clock this morn.
ing and report a squaw camp at Henry's
Lake, but that they were breaking camp
and moving toward Geger Basin, where
they left yesterday morning. Lieut..
Leary, HOward's Commissary, says that
when he left the front the Indians were
fortifying at place called the Lava
Beds, and thinks that Gen. Howard
struck them yesterday.
An independent special from Fort
Shaw, Mont, of the Goth, with news
from Fort Benton, states that there are
indications of an outbreak among the
GrOs Ventres, Assinabones and Piegans
Sitting Bull is at Fort Peck. Nez Perces
