web prepared. For, seven hours every
chargs we made gained ON Them, still at
night our position was not very good
one as the enemy lay contiguous 70. my,
communications, and as vas shot OF
rations. This morning by determined
effort we regained our spring Of water
from some sharp shooters. This after
| noon gave one line to the care of Capt.
Perry, commanding the cavalry, and
Capt Miles battalion Of infantry. L drew
out Capt. Miller's battalion of artillery
acting as infantry. Just rs we were
ready to recommence offensive work.
Capt. Jackson and pack train appeared
| in sight beyond the Indians position,
Miller pushed out I'm skIrmish order, met
the train and escorted 1t successfully.
They had hardly formed junction with
beyond the enemy's flank, made. o rapid
movement, taking Calling guns and
howitzsra alopg..-1 The Indiana made one
desperste effort 70 flank Miles, but piled
| and gave way. tEyerything was then
| pusned In pursuit. We. shellsd them
rapidly from high biuffa IS they escaped
nom the left bank OF the DIVER and fol-
lowed them, escaping in every direotion
as far as the river, and are now across and
going into camp at 1880 p. IN. The losses
of the Indians appear to be thirteen killed
and quite large number wounded. We
have Capt. Bancroft and Lieut.. Williams
and eleven enlisted men killed and twen-
ty-four wounded. Their camps were
abandoned in great haste leaving much
plumber. The Indians fought as well AS
any troops ever saw, and so did ours,
not one man failing in his duty. 1 now
believe that am in fine condition, just
as soon as Green appears from Boise, to
make thorough worth of these Indians.
They are making for the Snake country,-
and fear concentration at Mt. 1doho.
Troops have never done harder and more
rapid campaigning or better fighting than
these.
