Indian Outrages.
WASHINGTON, June 2S.-The War Depart
ment has received dispatches from Camp
Apache Arizona Territory, dated Nav 16, Civ
ing an account of an attack by the Esattesaylah
band of Indians on the herd, killing one herder
and driving off ten horses and twelve mules
Major Greene, commanding the post, immedi-
diately mounted all the men on the few mules
and horses left, and started Lieutenant Brodie
in pursuit. and also sent Captain Fuller with
some infantry to follow up, in order to support
Brodie If possible. H.
Brodie overlook them about twelve miles
from the post in the mountains. He had tight
and killed two Indians, but the number was too
large for his few men, for even a portion of
those he had could not keep up with him, aud
he was obliged to retire. One sergeant had his
very uneasy about train between the post and
Camp Goodwin, and also two wagons he had
sent to meet 1t in order to bring in some sup
plies that the garrison much needed. He there
fore sent Lieutenant Brodie With fifteen men, all
he could mount on mules, to meet the train and
guard it.
AS those Indians have been considered friendly.
they approach the parties without being sus-
pected, hence the great danger. He knows of
no course to pursue toward them but extermi-
nation for after the kind treatment received he
does not believe they can again beItrusted. He
has suspended all intercourse with them. OF
the two regiments he can mount only forty men.
owing to scarcity of horses.
