underbrush, and charged to the edge
of the same, keeping up rapid and
continuous fire.
My detachment was composed OF
forty eight absolutely raw recruits and
nineteen old soldiers. When the at
tack was made the men were in line
near a log hut. They were for mo-
ment confused by the Indian yolley
and demoniac yells. They broke ranks
and attempted to conceal themselves
behind the hut, but they recovered al
most instantly, and under the personal
direction of the three officers present
formed a steady skirmish line, and IN
turn charged and drove the Indians
back through the thick brush as far
as it was Denetrable.
'I then formed my deployed line on
two sides of a square, each side skirt
ing the timber whence the attack came
and protecting the log house, wherein
were placed the wounded. The Indians
continued their tactics of crawling up,
concealed by the underbrush, and at
tacking until dark, the attacks grow
ing less and less vigorous. They were
armed with Winchester repeating RI
fies, and appeared well supplied with
ammunition, judging from the prodlgal
use which they made of it. During
| the night they disappeared from the
! peninsula, so far as could be ascer-
tanned, supposedly departing in their
canoes to neighboring islands. They
seemed to have had quite enough or
fighting. and were not heard from ex-
cept an occasional distant shot, one or
which killed a soldier digging potatoes
in an adjoining field on the morning
of the 9th.

to Adjutant General Corhin.
Says the Redskins Were Badly

Their Chosen Battle Ground,
and Now Declare That They
Want No More Fighting With
United States Soldiers.

WASHINGTON. Nov. General
Bacon, who commanded the United
States forces in the recent battle at
Leech Lake, Mimi, has sent detailed
report of the action to Adjutant Gen
eral Corbin The interesting part of
the report is that in regard to the bat
tie, of which General Bacon writes:
''At 9 a. m we reached Sugar Point,
twenty-five miles east of Walker, To-
Gated on a neck or land or peninsula
extending about five miles into the
lake, and averaging about two miles
in width, and almost two miles north of
Bear Island. AT this point a land
ing, difficult because of the high seas
and natural obstruction, was effected,
and two Indians for whom warrants
were issued were arrested by the Mar
shals
After searching the vicinity of the
point, 1 left Lieutenant Ross and
thirty men to guard the landing and
boats, and proceeded with Captain
Wilkinson, the remainder of the de-
tachment and the civilians, and
searched the country back for three
miles. Occasionally we saw at a dis
tance a few bucks, who disappeared
with our approach. The women and
children seemed nervous, and gradu-
ally concealed themselves.
AT 11:30 the entire party had as
sembled at the landing, about which
Lieutenant Ross had thrown out pick
cts 1 had concluded to remain at
Sugar Point all night, and had given
orders to send back one boat for ra-
tions and tentage, both boats being too
heavily laden with men to load rations
on coming up. The detachment had
received orders to stack arms, when
one Of our rifles was accidentally dis
charged. Instantly the Indians fired a
volley into the ranks of the detach-

the Botkin case, has engaged attorneys
to look after the legal side, and an
endeavor will be made to have the case
carried to the Federal Court for set

His advisers believe that Governor

of the Sheriff of this county. McVey
