THE INDIAN WAR.

oral Wa'.
Disveb, Angnst 28.—The Ute war sltno-
tion, oa far as oan be learned, is unchanged
since yesterday. Word h*s been received
that six hnndrid Utes are camped near
Ttiaraday’a halt! field and are held back by
two companies of coto.ed regulars. It ie
known that tbe Indiana that took part in
tbe fight were trne Utm, White River,
Uintah Utea aod Uaoompahgre., and that
if necessary 1.600 reinforcements oan be
raised from this tribe.
Tbe Uooompabgre Indians tro a very
bot-blooded race, and if any of their peo
ple wire killed Tbnrsday it is feared tho en
tire triba will take tbo matter np und pre
cipitate tbe State Into a long and bloody
war. If tbe Indians do Dot attack the
whites at liangely before the arrival of
Oivrrnor Adams and Oenaral Crook to-
uuiruw, ihere are hopes that the tronbie
wilt be settled. Lieutenant Folsom, of
A*pen, who was wounded seriously daring
the engsgiment, died Friday morning.
Dxsvga, Col , Angnst 28.—A special
from Oamp Adams states that Llenlenant
Leslie and escort have gone to the reserva
tion to demand tbe body of Colorowand tbe
two Indiana wanted for horse stealing.
