FL. P. Bates. who left Duck Valley
last Friday and came across the country
from that place, informs rs that when
he left the reservation at that place the
Shoshones were more excited than the
whites. The Bannock ENJOYS had in.
formed them that unless they ioiued
them in their war against the Whites,
they would kill every one of them.
Neither whites nor friendly Indians
had arms. and they were almost wholly
at the mercy Of the hostiles. who were
probably not aware of this, or they
would have executed their threats at
