THE CHICAGO DAILY TRIBUNE: MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 20, i873. YELLOWSTONE LAKE. Expedition to Find a New Road Thereto. Rond Found and Distanc Shortoned--- o Soutkiern Routo Lo Truo Ono. What Capt. Jones' Expedition Saw and Did. Highly Beneficinl Results of the Exploration. Castr STAMDAUGH, Wyo, Ter,, Sept. 20, 1870, o the Editor of The Chicayo Tribune: ) Capt. Jones' oxpedition liny roturned, haviny succossfully nccomplished {ta object of find- ing o now and much shortor routo from tho Pa- cific Railroad to Montann than nuy heretoforo travolod. Old guides, Indisns, and mountain- men had deelarad that no new routa conld Lo made; but Gen, Oxd and Capt. Junes belioved difforently ; aud tho ronlt hus proved that ¥ THEY WERE CORRECT, On tho 10(h of July last, the oxpedition loft Cawmp Brown, on Little Wind River, in Wyoming Territory, snd tiavoled to the Yellowstono Lako, paseing nlong tho enat sido of it, snrvey- ing tho route as thoy wont. From the Yollow- stono Lako the pack-iraiu wont to Fort Ellly, Montana, for supplios. The oxpodition returnod to Camp Brown, prseing down tho wost sido of the lake, and finding rond which can bo made fn oxcellont stage-routo with a very littlo out- lay of timo and nonoy. < TIE DISTANCE ‘on tho routo golug waa much greator than tho route when roturning, aud, in round numbers, taay bo stated as follows: TFrom tho Yellow- stono River, at what is known g the Miner's Bridge (being 40 milos Lolow whore tho river leavos tho Inke), passing down the enst sido to Camp Brown, is 210 milos, though the distance Jrom the south end of the lake to Camp Irown is ul @ hundred and forly=five mmiles! Thero ia & very good trail already made, which could bo casily converted into o good wagon-rond. From Camp Brown to South Pnes City s 560 miles, and theneo to Bryan, on tho Union Preifle Roilroad, 100 miles; so that the wholo distanco from Bryan to the Yellowstono Luko is a littlo Jess than 800 miles. Trom tho Point of Rocks, on tho Union Pacific Ratlway, to Camp Brown, o stage-road could be mudo which would not be ‘much over 100 miles, so that the lake could bo roached with only a littlo over 260 miles stage- conch travel. 1T BEENS ALMOST INCREDIDLE 4hat such should bo tho caso, but tho explora- tion mado during tho past summer loaves no xonson to doubt it, and anothor year may wit noss the establishmont of a now mail route this wny, over o comparutively lovel country, A great many oxplorers have tried to get in to tho Iake from tho south, and over and over ngain it has beon pronounced uttorly impracti- cable and impoemble, Indeed, one old guide gnid thora was a rango of mountaing which was “go high ond_rugged that s crow could not fly over it." But, in_spito of nll this, Capt. Jonck hina porsavered, and not ouly found that @ crow cau fly over the range, but, what ia much Dester and moro to the purbaso, AN EXCELLENT WAGON-ROAD can onsily bo mado aeross. . Over and over ugaiu have travelors essayed to go in from tho south, but noue have succesded. A party, howover, wont overto the Stinking- Water Branch of the Yellowstone River, and fol- Jowed it up to its sources, nnd thus got in from sthe southenst ; but it was reserved for this ex- edition to mnke & direct rond almost due_north rom the Union Pucific Ruilrord to the Yellow- stono Lake, which, with it surroundinge, is by ‘odds the grontest curiosity in Aworics, if ‘not in the world, Ihavo nover teon tho lake, but one striking thing connected with it is tho fact that T linve novor mot any ono who hias visitod it, but Decomes perfectly enthusinatio over it many ‘benutios and mugnificent views, and declares that oll othersights * pulo their effectual fives’ Desido it. Tu addition to boing o nenr and dircet route to the Yellowstoue ¥ark, thore is the othor und #till more important object of makiug a nhort and direct route to TUE HEART OF MOY' ‘nciuding Bozomen, Virgiin Cit; 54, y, aud Telena, and the rich gold flolds nud maguificont grazing- conntry of that region, 'Tho fact is, this rond will b of inculonlablo benedit to the pooplo of the Henrt of tho Continont, and open up uew avenuos of trado and commereo, besides Dring= ing into cultivation vast oxlonts of as fiue whent- Iund as lio beneath the sun. The travel will be from Ifclona to Bozewan, thenes to Yollowstone Lake, Camp Brown, and some point well east on the Union Pacifle Rail- yond, awhich it is, of courwo, too soon to determine b presout; but' ona thing i sure, ond that is, tho onstern freight will be carried up this routo, Instead of way out to Corinne, neur the shiores of 8alt Lake, and thouco upward into Montana Territory. It will canson complele revolution in tho channels of the freighting companios, as, by tlis routo, tho peoplo of tho north can b supplied much more cheuply aud expeditiously thnu by any other. THE ROUTE taken by Capt. Jones may be described s fol- low: Ife left Gump Brown iu July; struck aeross from Little Wind River to Big Wind River; thonce by Crowheart Butto and Owl Mountain to Muddy Crock nd Owl Creok; thonce to Gray Bull River; thenco to the Biink- fug-Water, which ho foliowed up to the Stink- ing-Wator Pass: down to Polican Cresk, whoroe he found himuelf on the shoro of Yellowstono Lake, Mo followed Yollowslono Rivor down to the Miner's Bridgo, near Specimen Mountain ; thoro croseed tho river, and followed it down many miles ; thon wont over to Fort Ellis, Mon- tans, 8 miles from Bozoman City, Ho roturned by the samo routo to the bridge ; 4hen followod up thoe river on the west sido, passing Mt. Washibuyn, and _through tho Grost Goysor Bosin ; thon around the southern. ex- tromity of the lnke, ncar Mt, Shoridun, to tho Upper’ Yellowstono River, following up that stream (o the Two-Ocean I'nes, where ho found natream of wator flowing down o Lill, part of which ran cast into the Yellowstono, thence in- to the Missouri, and 80 on to the Gulf of Mox- leo 5 aud part iuto the Snake River, thonce into tho Columbin, anud far to the Westward, until it minglod ite wators with the blue Pacifie. Ho followed down Buake Rivor to Teton Creek, benring wostward, pnssing round the [;mnt 1ango, over o gontlo alopo and through u boautiful country, until ho struck the 'o-gwo-te Puss, whero, mch to his dolight, Lo found him- gelf2 on tho houdwatersof the Wind River, where p magnificont {)luin oponued before him, locked in by mouutsing, There wore many valloys, through which ran purling strenms to meet the main river, and grassy monds giving sustonance to hords of deor aud “elk. Continu- {ng his course downward, and following Wind River for many miles, Lo crossed ovor to Snga Crook, thouce to Little Wind River, nud found hlmgolf at Canp Brown on the 12th dy of tep- E.uu)xbur, which placo he bad loft on tlio 10th of nly. In many portions of the trip, the Captain had boou ubliged to Mirough plno and spruce forsts ; but his men and n“ worked choorfully and with o will, and overything had succcoded as well os hio coulit wisl, No accidant lad oceurred on thoe wholo routo to mar tho plensura of any ono; it wau moro liko n Airnud pienio than a laborions, scien- Jiflo and oxpl orhlghexpmlltiuu.
