DHAH MAJOU : I am on route with

families , with 200 people. I hope to

to have Rome half-breeds come out
with provisiomi. I send u good man
with this letter. Ho will tell you nil
about it. Can you send them full ra
tions to lot them know how you food
them at Buford ? I have provisions
for two or three days only. Send in
i hurry or they may make trouble
or turn back. Each chief ex
pects from you a little pres
ent , nuch as tobacco , spirits , etc.
T have promised that much if not
more. Send them something , oven if
charged to mo. I wish you would di
rect every man nt the fort not to pay
any more attention to Sitting-Bull
than to nny other Indian for the first
day , and Jot mo bring them to the

is anything wrong I will notily you nt

The courier arrived Thursday night.
Early the following morning Major
Brotliortoii started out six army wag-
ana with ample supplies nnd escort ,
but no ofliccr in charge , by reason of
Logaro'B request , though several asked
to go. Hearing last night , however ,
that an effort was likely to bo made to
ilcllect Bull from his direct route , and
take him to Poplar Crook , and desir
ing to avoid such delay , Capt. Walter
Clifford wns ordered to proceed and
moot the party nnd conduct it hero by
the shortest route. A Pioneer Press
reporter , who started out at once on
receipt of the news hero , is now in
Bull's camp , nnd will remain with him
to note and report incidents of the
journey and surrender.
Mnj. Brotliortoii has desired to keep
vague rumors of Siltinu-Bnll's move
ments , with which his name has boon
associated , out of the dispatches ns far
as possible , thinking your renders had
n surfeit of such news , nnd wished to
Imvo him secured hero in camp before
nny further publication on the sub
ject. But several boats having pass
ed carrying certain wild reports , ho
kindly permits your correspondent to
furnish you with reliable information.

thought Capt. Clifford , who could tnlk

or ride nil over him or nil roilnd hinij
will camp with Sitting Bull to-night ,
and bring him hero on Tuesday , un
