Gloom and mourning in tho city is universal. The Nonpareil will say In its Issue this morning: The most frightful calamity occurred lastieveniugaiter six o'clock. It had been threat ening rain during tho entire day, with occasional showers, but when evening came it seemed as though the very heavens fell. A dark, poitentioui cloud swept around to the eastward and discharged Its torrents into the head watervof Indian creek, and the Hood with constantly increasing volumes, poured through Council Bluffs, reported. At midnight general gloom spread over the city, which was increased by a continuance of tho rain, although the creek seemed to have spent its fury. The water in the western and southern art of the city is rapidly rising, and many people are been compelled to take to boats to escape It is Impossible at this hour to give the facts as to the extent of the devastation by tho storm, but tbe loos to the city alone, will Ira hundreds of thou sands of dollars, independent of that to private individuals UXrftECEDEXTED IX DAXAOE.

Washinotok, Mny 31.—.The following state' ment of the view taken at the army head quarters of the situation of affairs on the Mexican frontier, and of the plans and cir cumstances of Oeneral Crook, is made by au thority. The United States acquired Texas, New Mexico and Arizona from old Mexico In the war of 18lfl-’48. Ever since that time our army and adventurous emigrants hare been fighting with the “Apaches," the general name given to many bands of Indians of about tbe same type, known distinctively os the Tontos, Jicarlllas, Warm Springs Indians and Chircahuos, who for 100 years have been contending for possession of the territory' lying along wlmt is known as the Mexican frontier.

CROOK'S POWER. The war department has given General Crook tho fullest liberty to conduct this bold enterprise in bis own way and his own time, reposing in him absolute confidence, and furnishing him with men and money fully up to liis requisitions and estimates. There is no hurry in the matter, for during his absence from Arizona all the railway and mining operations and other pursuits of the people of that territory are going on, without interruption, and his presence on tbe other tide ot the border will keep all tbe hostile Apaches there from undertaking another raid. General Crook, in due time, will ac count for everything in his own way or perish JUST PROM THE EiZI.D, Lieutenant Win. Baird, of the Sixth cav alry, who has just returned from the Mexi can frontier, said to a reporter to-day, in reply to an inquiry, that be did not think tbe reports of General Crook's engagement witli the hoatiles were trustworthy. "Very likely," he said, “there has been fighting, but I don’t think any decisive action has taken place. General Crook did not intend to send back word until he had accomplished something or bad entirely failed.” ln reply to tbe question why Gen eral Crook did not take with him into Mexico a Urge force of cavalry, Lieutenant Baird said: -General Crook’s action in that respect is not fully understood. He took all the men that he could possibly provide transportation fur. Everything in the way of provisions and baggage bad to Be carried on pack mules. Tbe country was scoured, and all tbe mules that could be procured at the dlfterent putts were brought In. Tbese mules are not very plentiful, and the size of the force had fo be regulated ln accordance with the supply. It wasabsolntely necessary to Uke scouts to track the enemy. General Crook took with him as far as tbe border eight or ten companies, with which he formed a cordon along tbe line. Six com panies were left in the vicinity of San Ber nardino. under Colonel Biddle. It was with one of these companies that I was stationed with. It was a terrible Country that General Crook entered, per fectly desolate. Tbe prosperous ranches that used to stand along the bare of tbe moun tains btve been ewept away by tbe savages, and an occasional Isolated namlet is all Uut is left of the villages. Tbe great difficulty that General Crook niu to contend with U the scar city of water. Tbe scouts only know one or two places where water can be found, hut the fugitives know where every drop is in the mountains. The moat cordial relations ex isted between General Crookand tbe Mexican autboriUea, and his plans and intentions were fully approved by them. I think that no un easiness need be felt for the safety of General Crook and hts men. We had no idea down there other than than he knew what he was about, aud that h« would come out all right. a | luen nuiuinK uua ueuu muiru m me party tv* ovnr vnnrhiiifmi fn^mv ^n I l ' 1C nil< l there IUC fo*M tiiqy lilt tjr, mer vouchsafed to any school svstetn in I i lPpn t-J* «„«, r rh u mn tl.A Ifmir tf l.nu l.».n ni.nltnfl T A,.
