Lava Bed Camp, Cal., May 11, 1873.
Yesterday the scouting party under Captain
Basbrouek and Donald McKay met the
Modocs at the head of Sorass Lake. It seems
they had been encamped the night previous,
expecting to meet the Indians in that vicin
ity, though the only signs seen were fresh
tracks of one mule and a pony. Twelve men
of Jackson's cavalry were guarding the horses,
when,
IN THE GRAY OF THE MORNING,
Che Modocs attacked tho camp. They had
left their horses back some distance and
crept upon the sleepers, the first fire killing
one and wounding eight men. The soldiers
sprang to their arms, and, with the Warm
Springs, in a few minutes were driving th^
Modocs. Tt
-country was rather open, but still
pough, for two miles, which the Modocs must
pass to reach the lava bed.
THE WARM SPRINGS
ran them so fast that the Modocs lost twenty
one horses and some loads of ammunition. One
Warm Spring was killed. The Indians were
driven all day and last night. Donald McKay
sent back for water, saying he could hold
them. There were
THIRTY-FOUR MODOCS IN THE FIGHT?
all the band. They were working around for
the timbered butte, near the Sand Bluff, where
they hope to escape by way of Pit Range, if
forced to leave the lava beds. This is a de
cisive victory, and will do more to encourage
the soldiers and discourage tho Modocs than
all the previous fighting. The Warm Springs
fought nobly and to the purpose.
THE OFFICIAXi REPORT,
at half-past seven o'clock this evening, states
that the troops lost two killed?Corporal Tot
tem, of Troop G, First cavalry, and one Warm
Spring Indian. One Modoc is known to be
killed, and perhaps others.
To-morrow 170 men from thia side are
ordered to move towards the scene of tho con
flict. General Davis hopes that we now have
them whipped, and will improve the occasion.
General Gillem will not be interfered with,
tor his policy has been true so far. I think

further Particular* of the Fight.
Camp on Lava Beds, May 12, 1873.
I had little time in which to give particulars
Df the last fight before the courier left. The
forces acting against the savages are some
twenty-fivo miles from here, and aro working
this way, probably driving the Modocs to
wards the stronghold they occupied at the
time of the Thomas massacre. The troops
are moving from this camp this morning,
hoping to cut them off before they reach it.
?11 is action now.
THE MODOCS WILL BE ALLOWED NO BEST.
General Davis says that we have begun an
action which will end in exterminating the
tribe. It was a great mistake of the Modocs,
Who undoubtedly thought they could stam
pede this force as they had stampeded others;
but they met the Warm Springs.
THE INDIANS SUBPBISED.
Those warriors started at the first fire as
fast as they could get their guns, trotting on
tho flank of the Modocs, which surprised
them. The cry of the Warm Springs went
'through the Modoc ranks and they were stam
peded in place of tho soldiers. The Warm
Springs drove them steadily all day, and laid
on their flank last night, and will renew tho
fight to-day.

Despatches from Lieutenant Bnyles* camp state
that at Kuunse yesterday the Modocs came Into the
camp aud fired on the picket guard. The com
mand of Captain Hasbrouck, after scouting all day,
had returned to Sorass Lake for water, and were
making efforts to secure some by digging, but none
could be found. Donald McKay was sent back to
Lieutenant I'ayles* camp as an escort of Battery
B o; the Fourth artillery, a and B troops, of the'
First cavalry, lelt for the scene of the fight, the
distance buin^r seventeen miles, and which occu
pied all night until dawn oi the next day. Captain
Jack's hand rode within one hundred yards of the
camp, when all dismounted and
charged on tub camp,
firing into the herd and guard. The first volley
stampeded the herd, which lelt for the camp, and
while the men were getting under arms the
Modncs gave volley after vollev, killing four sol
diers and one Warm Spring Indian. A rally was
made and the charge was sounded. This time
Donald McKay and some of his men united and
drove the Modocs into the timber, capturing
twenty-one ponies and three pack mules.
One Modoc was left on the field and nineteen
mules packed; also Bix dead bodies. Before the
retreat the trail was covered with gore. The In
dians beat
A UASTY BETKBAT
towards the McLeod range of mountains.
Captain Hasbrouck handled his men dexterously.
He is now furnished with five days' supplies, but
water is very scarce, which deters a long stay In
the field. General Davis is determined to keep the
savages moving until the last Modoc is killed. The
soldiers gain greater courage, having
TIJE ENEMY IN THE OPEN GROUND.
The wounded are being brought into camp in
wagons, and from there they will be taken to
headquarters. Two soldiers are reported mortally
wounded. Captain Hasbrouck thinks the Modocs
have no ammunition except what they have re
maining in their pouches, as they loBt their entire
reserve or ammunition In this fight. The cavalry
are in camp all safe, captain Jack has but seven
animals with him.
CAPTAIN JACK WEARING GENERAL CANBY'S UNI- |
FORM.
He wore the attire of General Canby, and took
his position on the field in as lordly a manner as if
be had been a brigadier general.
The artillery will move at once to the other side
of the lake. Enough men will remain In the old
stronghold to keep It safe, while the rest will give
chase and try to exterminate the fugitives. There
were thirty-three Modocs engaged. No squaws
were seen during the fight nor by the scouts on thQ

following night.
WHERE DID THE MODOCS GET FIXBD AMMUNITION*
There Is a strong suspicion that Captain Jack is
receiving aid from some unknown party. It ap
pears strange how he got six boxes of central
primed cartridges. He did not capture them from
our forces, and It is certain that he could not have
picked np that amount after the battle of January
17. When the ?curler lea the troops were

TELEGRAMS TO THE HEW YORK HERALD.
IIkrlin, May 13, 18T3.
The Bourses or the principal cities of Germany
are extremely depressed in consequence of the
money panic In Vienna.
The German North government, with a view to
the relief of the different centres of'Change, will
Introduce amcusure Into the Diet applying Prussia's
share of the war contribution to the purchase or
bills and public securities to advances for the ac
commodation or merchants, and to the redemption
of the debt for ra.lway works.
THK PRUSSIAN RAILWAYS AND STECCLATIYK POLICY
OF THK STATE.
The German government proposal to borrow
120,000,000 thalers for a system or railways In Prus
sia was the occasion of an animated discussion in
the Chamber of Representatives during the latest
days of the month of March. The liberal party gen*
orally was disposed to support the concentration
of the railways in the hands of tho State. The
ultramontanists, on the other hand, who, it is
alleged, oppose everything that adds to the influ
uence of the central government, were hostile
to this view. The impression against the govern
ment produced oy the debate was very strong, and
tho course?so unusual in Prussia?or rcfosing to
grant the vote in question by a solemn, decisive
vote, was seriously canvassed by the majority.
The Austrian Bank Act Suspended.
Vienna, May 13, 1873.
The operation of the Rank act has been sus

The Austrian Bank Act and Its Pre
monitory Difficulties?11 u n|;nrian Ac
count of "Wildcat" Speculation.
A special correspondence in llungary, dating in
PoBth at a very recent moment, presented some
words of admonition premonitory of the Austrian
Bank act crisis and the Vienna Bourse llnanclal
collapse, setting forth some few of the causes
which were more Immediately pressing towards
Buch results.
The writer saidTlie presence here of the Aus
trian Minister President and the Minister of Fi
nance has been taken advantage of to hold con
ferences on the bank question. This question hud
been left pending in 1807, when the arrangement
between Austria and Hungary was made. There
were then so many other lar more urgent ques
tions, and this question Itself was so intricate,
that it was thought more advisable to adjourn its
solution, as the privilege of the National Bank,
which lasts till the end ol 1875, seemed to admit of
such adjournment without creating much lucon
venlcnce. Hungary did not, indeed, recognize tills
privilege as Minding, and as the arrangement with
Austria did not mention tho bank as one of the in
stitutions common to both sides ol the Kmplre
she considered herself entitled, if her Interests re
quired it, to establish a national bank or
her own, and the status t/uo was ac
cepted in good raith on both sides. For a
couple of years things went on smoothly enough on
both sides. The Austrian National Hank, anxious to
maintain Its privilege over the whole Kmplre, did
everything io make things pleasant. Confidence
being restored in the stability ?r political institu
tions, as regulate* by the compromise witn Austria,
gave a fresh Impulse to Industrial and commercial
activity In Hungary. The Impulse was vigorously
promoted by a good harvest for two years, and ah
export ol grain and other raw produce such as had
never existed before. Financial and industrial
establishments were springing up in every direc
tion, all of which naturally expected to find sup
port in the National Hank. Nor were they deceived.
The Vienna establishment endeavored in every
way to meet tho demands thus made upon Its re
sources. The dotation for its branches in Hung.irv,
which had been ?l,Sou,ooo, was successively more
than doubled, whllo the low discount made
the benefits of this increased fund
easily accessible to every one. All this lasted till
about the middle ol 1S69, when gradually a change
arose. The impulse given to industrial and flnan
clal enterprise by the settlement of political affairs,
however healthy and legitimate in the beginning,
had gradually degenerated luto speculation or the
wildest kind. Every one was getting up companies,
or, at least, trying to obtain his share in the
fabulous gains which were realized by the pro
moters. The shares of companies which had not
yet begun their operations were driven up to twice
and more of their nominal value, while the whole
disposable capital in the Empire would have been
scarcely sufficient to supply half or them. Foreign
capital, which it had been confidently reckoned
upon would flow in freely, did not corne in bo
rapidly as was required to make up the deficiency
of capital in the country, and the result or all tnls
was a violent reaction, which, in the Autumn of
1809, culminated in a monetary crisis. To make
things worse, the harvest had been very in
different, not to say bad; so that the relief which
mignt have been expected on this side fell away
likewise. As this state or things was not comlned to
Hungary, bnt extended to Austria likewise, the
bank thought It necessary to raise its discount and
to apply the most stringent measures to protect Its
reserve of notes. A great disaster was the conse
quence. Shares of every kind rell to a fourth and
less of their former value. Most of the new indus
trial establishments being short of working capital
and relying on an easy discoun t were, if nor ruined,
at least crippled for years, and. in the bitterness of
deception, Instead ol examining the co-operation
of the many causes which had produced this
deplorable result, only looked out for a scapegoat,
which was found in the National Bank. It was all
the fault of this institution, which, by its anti
quated, heavy mcchanisrn and tho exclusive con
sideration or Its own Interests In preference to the
interests of the public, bad brought about the
calamity.
It would be immaterial to inquire how far these
changes were Justified, but the Impression has
remained from that time tnat this institution Is
not up to the requirements of the present time and
needs thorough reorganization.
