THE ATTACK ON LIEUT. LEMLY'S EXPEDITION MADE BY LAME DEER'S BAND -- AN UNFOUNDED REPORT -- A SIOUX BUFFALO HUNT TO BE FOLLOWED BY A "BIG TALK" AT WASHINGTON.

Reported in The New York Times / August 5, 1877

CHICAGO, Ill., Aug. 4. -- Information of an authentic nature has been received at military head-quarters that it was Lame Deer's band of Sioux Indians which recently attacked the surveying party under Lieut. Lemly on Spearfish Creek. The surveyors are engaged in running a boundary between Nebraska and Wyoming Territory. The supposition that the attacking band were agency Indians proves to be unfounded.

DENVER, Col., June 24. -- A special to the Times from Durango says: "It is reported that 500 Indians are ready to make war if the result of the investigations being made by Agent Stollistiemer as to the trouble between the Indians and cowboys is unsatisfactory to them. The Indians were seen on Monday and Tuesday moving westward, followed by two companies of cavalry. The whole country is terribly excited."
