gines and 220 cars located on the yard

teered as fireman. He is an old cit
izen and ex-member of the City Coun-
Gil, but had formerly worked as fire.

men gathered quietly about, and just as
the engine was about to move thew put
forward fireman who held up hand
from which three fingers had been cut in

battle between Gibbons command and

August 9th.
Gibbons command, consisting of 1872
men, II officers, 1873 regulars and 80 citi-
zen volunteers, crossed over from Ross
Hole on Wednesday, starting at II
O'Clock. On the same night they moved
down all the troops with the exception
of a few left to guard the transportation
a few miles above, close to the Indian
camp, which was made on the Big Hole
about three miles below where the Bitter
Root and Bannock trail crosses.
AT daylight this morning the fight
opened by the volunteers firing on and
killing an Indian going after his horses.
/ The charge was then made on the camp
and hard fighting occurred for the next
two hours, during which time large num-
bers of men and Indians were killed.
| The soldiers then charged on the lodges,
but were repulsed in the attempt. The
Indians then attempted to cut them
from high wooded point, but the
soldiers charged, and driving the In
dian advance from it, held it and at once
fortified. The fighting continued all
pay and was still progressing ftfully
when the courier left, at IL o'clock. The
fighting was desperate on both sides,
the full force of the Indians being in the
fight
Capt. Logan and Lieut.. Bradley were
killed; Gen. Gibbon, Capt Williams and
Lieuts. Coolidge, English and Woodruff
were wounded-Gen. Gibbon only
slightly. Bradley was the first man
killed.
The messenger says that after they
failed to capture the lodges, the Indians
moved their camp off in the direction of
Bannock, all their horses being captured
the messenger had to come to French
Gulch, near 60 miles, on foot. Another
messenger was sent to Howard. who
should have reached there to-day. The
messenger says he thinks one hundred
Indians were killed and nearly half the
command, including citizens, were killed
or wounded
Gen. Gibbon has sent for medicines
surgeons supplies, &c. Mitchell will
leave to-day. He particularly asks for
ambulance wagons to come under escort,
and every available wagon will go for
ward from here and Butte 1t is one of
the hardest Indian fights on record and
Gibbons command made most gallant
and desperate fight against overwhelming
odds

A CORRESPONDENT at Biela says his esti-
mate of the serious effect of the Russian de-
feat at Plevna, formed on the battlefield, is
fully borne out Ivy the Russian appreciation
of 1t. The Russians stand waiting for the
necessary reinforcements, and are thankful
that they are not assailed in their defensive
position. The defeat has altered the Who'll
plau OF the campaign for this year. The
Russians have virtually abandoned the ex-
pectation of pressing the war successfully
across the Balkans.

Lateet Foreign News.

LONDON, August 10.-ATnew element
has been imported into the situation in
Europe by the achievements of Sulei-
man Pasha. There seems no reason to
doubt that the Russians have not only
evacuated Kazanlik, but all their posi-
tions south of the Balkans, and that
Gen. Gourka is retreath2g through the
Schipka Pass upon Tirnova.
The Russians are evidently determined
to strike decisive blow before the main
Turkish army from Schumla can make
serious movement between them and
the Balkans, and thereby endanger the
whole of Gourka's forces in the passes.
Fuller details of the great battle of
July 81 at Plevna are now at hand. The
Russian losses were l 200 killed and 5000
wounded.
LONDON, August 10.-The London
News' special from Alexandria says:
1T is rumored that the Abyssinians are
massing troops on the Egyptian frontier
and threaten a descent on the Egyptian
territory unless the traitor Waldo Mikail
be delivered up Immediately. Gen. Cor
don is expected on the frontier shortly to
prevent further complications"
A correspondent with the Turkish
headquarters at Schumla teleeraphs that
the Russian army which passed the Bal
kans has retired from the plains of Rou-
melia to the mountain passes at Schipka
and Denur-Kapu. On these positions
they are strongly intrenclled, and, it is
believed, are well supplied. 1t is thought
that the Russians will hold the passes
until the large reinforcements said to be
moving from Roumania arrive.
THERE is GENERAL SATISFACTION
Plevna. Distinguished Englishmen have
informed the CORRESPONDENT that they
have observed no such satisfaction since
the Federal defeats at Charlottesville
and Fredericksburg.
There seems little foundation for the
peace rumors which come from Vienna
The Turks, encouraged by success, are
not likely to listen to peaceful advice,
and the return of Midhat Pasha, which
is considered imminent, may be looked
upon as sign that they will put forth
all their energies and carry the war to
its last extremity.
The Russian papers of late have been
filed with indignation at the charges of
cruelty against their army. The Journal
de st. Petersburg maintains that the re-
ports presented to the British parliament
are not of an official character, as none
