CARLIN PARTY RESCUED.
Lieut.. Elliott Finds Them Almost Dead,
with One Man Lost.

MIssoULA, Mont, Nov. 2s-News
comes from Kendrick, Ia, to the effect
that the Carlin party has been found
more dead than alive, with Colgate. the
cook, whose pitiful abandonment was
necessitated in order that the
remainder might be saved. A courier
arrived at Kendrick, having ridden
more than 100 miles bearing the an
nouncement that the party, except
Colgate, had been found by Lieut.. Ell
liott's relief corps on the middle fork
of the Clearwater 1870 miles from habi-
tation. They were famished, with
out horses or provisions, bare
footed. only the soles of their shoes
remaining and seant of clothing.
Hemmed in by impenetrable snow
banks, and after several Intellectual at
tempts to escape, the party became re-
signed to its fate, trusting to Providence
for relief. Another thirty-six hours
would have found them frozen. Lieut.
Elliot found the men ia a con-
dition verging on insanity lie admin
istered what immediate relief was at
his command. Colgate, he learned,
was still behind, having fallen in his
inability to keep up with the party
This necessitated Elliot's sending
back for additional relief to
search for Colgate, though it is
believed it is too late and the
man will not be found alive. When
found the party was totally bewildered
and wandering about aimlessly on
snowcovered plateau, on which the
depth of the snow averaged IA feet
