Colorado Cattle Men and the Pah ties.
DENVER Coli June 29th.-The Repubh-
can is in receipt of advices from source
considered reliable, which greatly reduces the
magnitude of the late Indian fight. Not long
after the cattle men arrived ia the Indian
country Billy May, one Of the leaders, con-
Guided his men were too noisy, and, being
unable to get them in proper trim, he, with
six Others, left the main party. Oaly thirteen
Indians were encountered, and but nine
cattle men went into the fight, the remainder
apparently seeing the trap the Indians we,
laying. The zine men pursued the Indians,
and the latter pushed their flight until they
had drawn their pursuers into canyon,
where they turned and fired and then left.
One of the nine was killed and seven wounded.
William May and his companions who were
reported as missing, have reached the big
bend Of the Dolores. At last accounts the
thirteen Indians engaged in the fight had
crossed the Colorado line and were en- route
to the Uncompahgre Agency with theii
squaws and cattle. One squaw is reported tc
have been shot while herding sheep. The
Republican adds: It is an important fact in
estimating the dangers caused by the late
fight, that in none of the reports have
miners appeared as taking hand. Ii there
had been any fighting that was likely tc
cause general outbreak it seems that the
miners would be sufficiently interested to BIZ
among the volunteers.
