FIGHT WITH THE APACHES.
Formidable Outbreak = Lieutenant
AlmY Killed.

SAN FRANCISCO, June 9, 1873.
Advices from Arizona this afternoon state that
the Indian Agent at San Carlos, Major Larrabee,
had some difficulty with the Apaches. They under
took to Kill him with spears He ran 70
Lieutenant Almy's tent The latter with six
soldiers, went to the agency with him. They
went into Larrabee's tent. Larrabee and Almy
came out Of the tent. Larrabee IN advance, when
the Apaches fired on them Amy received three bull
lets, which passed through his body. He fell dead
without groan. LarraDee was untouched and
retired into the tent Four OF the six soldiers
ran. One or the two who remained was
prevented from shooting by Conception, .
Mexican interpreter at the agency. The Apaches
ned across the river 1t is probable that many Of
them have taken to the mountains. A messenger
to Governor safrord who left the reservation half
an hour after the occurrence, says that the ma
jOrity of the Indians were there when he left.
Eske VOnsein, noted Chief had become angry
with the agent several days previous. and had LEFT
San Carlos with large band some time before the
murder The Indians fired about forty shots at
Larrabee and ,Almy. 1t has been generally thought
for some time that an outbreak was inevitable.
Almy was born in the State OF Massachusetts, and
promoted to be a First Lieutenant Of the Fifth
cavalry In April, 1860.

OPENING OF THE KNABE MUSIC HALL

We are very poorly supplied with concert halls in
this city, and, with the sole exception OF the mag
niicent edllce erected by Steinway, there is not
public concert room in this city where a piano
recital or parlor soiree can be given with effect.
Messrs. Knabe 4 Co., OF Baltimore, tried an ex-
pertinent last night at their new hall on Fifth
avenue to supply this want, and the trial proved
eminently successful. concert programme
was arranged, and select audience, comprising
some OF the leaders OF fashion on the avenue, was
assembled. Mr.. ]. N Pattison played number
OF his own compositions, selecting the most
brilliant, such as Polka de Concert "Spray
Mazurka" "Celtic Polka" and Russian Hymn
Fantasia" Mr.. George W. Morgan played q choice
selection OF piano works, and Mile. Boonsil
rivaed Wieniowskl by her exquisite violin play.
ing. Madame De Ryther sang a couple OF ballads
with all the finish, richness or voice and effect that
have made this artist q favorite in concert. A
number OF other artists and amateurs took part in
the musical Entertainment and the new music hall
was inaugurated under the happiest auspices.

The Jerome Park Races To-Day.

The Spring meeting of the American
Jockey Club commences to-day at Jerome
Park. This is an event to which the fashion,
ables of the metropolis look forward with in
tense interest. All the aggregate art of mil
linery in New York is called into requisition
by the bellies of society, and the gentlemen
regard these races as the browning triumph of
long season Of fashion and bon ton. 1t is. as
it were the close of the fashionable season.
Should the clerk of the weather be in one of
his amiable moods the commencement of the
Spring season to-day will be brilliant in the
extreme. The programme is very interesting
comprising the Fordham Handicap Sweep
stakes, for which the course is mile and a
quarter and the entries thirty-eight in number.
Then come the Belmont Stakes, for which
seventy-fve three-year-olds are entered. A
three-quarter mile race, for all ages, and a
steeplechase fill up the programme. The
Jerome Park races have become fashionable
events in this city, and we may expect to-day
such gathering of fashion as will put in the
shade the proudest assemblages in the seagirt
isle, where racing has been for ages an honored
institution.

Whatever may be the strength of the Re-
public in France or the programme of the
monarchical conservatives of the Assembly in
the displacement of President Theirs, it is
evident on all sides that the imperialists have
''great expectations" Of some change in the
situation under President MacMahon which
will bring them again into the foreground
Nor does it appear that MacMahon thinks, as
Theirs thought, that, of all things, it is essen
.tial to the internal peace of France to keep the
Bonapartes out of the country and to expel
them if they dare to come in. On the con-
trary a few days after the advancement of
MacMahon to the place given up by Theirs,
Prince Pierre Napoleon Bonaparte was re-
ported among the new arrivals in Paris, and
now it appears that Jerome Napoleon (Plon
Plon) walks around the ssburned district of
the Tuileries without a remonstrance from
MacMahon, though his presence among the
imperialists of Paris has awakened a suspi-
Assembly.
AS Theirs, however, in becoming President,
became a Theirs man, so MacMahon, whatever
he may have been before, will, as President of
France, be apt to go for MacMahon, as the
wisest course between the radical republicans
conservative republicans, old Bourbons, Or
leanists and imperialists. STILL in giving the
Bonapartes the rights of French citizens,
MacMahon is to them an immense improve
ment on Theirs. Whatever may be the de-
signs Of the old favorite Marshal Of the Empire,
it is at least apparent, from this concession,
that he is not afraid of the Bonapartes.
Meantime, from a letter of M. Pietri, late
confidential secretary of Napoleon the Third,
and in the days of the Empire Napo-
Icons confidential policeman, it appears
that the sensational production published
on Thursday last in the Pail Mall Gazette,
as an appeal from the ex-Empress Eugene
to the French people, in behalf of her
son, is nothing but canard, and Pietri,
being still in the confidence of the ex- Empress,
ought to know. The canard perhaps, served
its turn, as a newspaper bellringer for day,
but whether from o friend or an enemy of the
Bonapartes it can do them no harm. France
is quiet, MacMahon seems to be fully the
master Of the field, with the army at his back;
but there is no telling what may be the next
turn of the wheel between him and the un-
certain French Assembly.

The Bank Of EnglanA and Its
kcrews.

Raising the rate of discount by the Bank Of
England, or, as the fnanciers and stock
dealers of London call it, putting on the
screws" is an operation to which that insti-
tuition invariably resorts when q financial
crisis is imminent or when there is actually or
prospectively an unusual drain of specie from
England. At times, too, the action OF the
Bank is not SO well understood, and arises
from variety of causes thus having to the
uninitiated the appearance of capriciousness.
But it is regulated by laws or rules Of manage
ment as fixed as those of nature. The barom-
eter is not more sensitive under the influence
Of atmospheric changes than the action of the
Bank from financial and commercial causes,
and from causes often extending much farther
than Great Britain. This action, too, is
frequently in anticipation of events, not
always foreseen by many people, just as
the barometer falls, sometimes before there
is cloud in the sky, to indicate q
coming storm. But the proximate
cause generally is the outflow OF specie from
the vaults Of the Bank or from England.
Sometimes the Bank puts on the screws to
check overtrading or excessive speculation.
Raising the rate Of discount just now to seven
per cent which in England is a very high rate,
seems to be anomalous, for the world is at
peace and there are no signs Of war, and the
trade Of the Kingdom is most prosperous.
The immediate cause, and apparently the only
one, for the action of the Bank is, then, the
transfer of specie from England to the Cont
nent Of Europe to meet the financial transac-
tions of France and Germany pertaining to
the war indemnity. We are led to this view
of the matter from the fact that, while the
Bank of England is losing its specie, the Bank
of France has been receiving large increase.
The balance of trade in favor of France may
also have had some effect Money, too, APP
pears to be scarce in England, there
not being enough to meet the demands
of business, as the government has
authorized the Bank to issue six millions
sterling Of its reserve notes, an unusual
proceeding in order to give relief to the pub
lie. All this, however, is probably only tenn
porary; for while there is peace and such
general prosperity this high rate Of discount
cannot remain long. sss,,e N~>..s

The SAVAGE WAR IN CUBA cannot be better
illustrated than in the infamous and impo-
tent vengeance taken by the Spanish volun-
teers on the corpse of the patriot, Agramonte.
The body, we are informed, was filed with
petroleum and burned This is deed
worthy of the most barbarous days of the
forefathers of the Spaniards on the African
side. The ashes Of the patriot are now kept
for a trophy in the Casino Espafiol of Puerto
Principe. The ghoulsh hideousness of this
act is only too much in keeping with the
Spanish character. Meanwhile the war goes on.
By telegram from Havana we have informa-
ton, on the authority of Spanish official
dispatches, that severe battle has just been
fought in the Manzanillo region between the
Cuban insurrectionist forces and the troops of
the Madrid Republic. The losses were very
heavy on both Sides The Cubans are said to
have had one hundred and fifty-five men
killed. and the government forces admit loss
of twenty-three killed and sixty-fve wounded.

The Spanish authorities are fully aware
that it is impossible to accomplish
anything in the way of bringing home
the most remote appearance of partisanship
in the discharge of his mission to Mr..
OKelly; but they purblindly think that
series of petty tyrannies and small persecu-
tons against all HERALD men within their
reach will deter others from following in their
footsteps The shrewd surmise which gives
General Pieltain credit for desire to smooth
over the blunders in harshness of his prede-
cessor may be well founded but we think it
is an injustice to the General, which he would
hasten to correct by placing the surmiser
somewhere, incommunicado, until he had
formed the proper opinion of General Piel-
tain's liability to blunder as boldly as the late
lamented Ceballos.
1t will be a curious point that in an I'M
dertaking to discover the truth about the
rebellion in Cuba the correspondents of the
HERALD should, much against their will, be
enabled to unmask the fragrant abuses which
mark the administration of the thing called
''justice" by the Spaniards. An investigation
OF the filth and disorder of the prisons, the
venality and tyranny of jailers and the barbar-
GUS practices which defile their prison system
generally was no part of the mission entrusted
to the intrepid gentlemen in the service of
the HERALD in Cuba. 1t was forced upon them
by the Spaniards themselves. AS Mr.. Glad
stones recital Of the horrors of the dungeons
of Naples did much to destroy the throne of the
Bombas, so the pictures Of sinister doings in
Cuban dungeons will be of little service to the
cause Of Spain. If they cannot put down the
Cuban rebellion in the forests, and are bar
barous and antiquated in their administration
of the towns, what hope is there that tAeeyy
can retain power in Cuba in century like the
present? The interviews Of a HERALD CORE
spondent, himself just released from prison,
with two others in durance will point oil the
moral of Spanish incapacity and folly that the
bitterest enemy of Spain could desire.

HIGH CHURCHISM.
Bishop Southgate's Son i'm Sudden Re.
treat from the Episcopal Church.

BALTIMORE, June 9, 1873.
The Rev. E. Southgate, son OF Horatio Southgate,
OF New York, missionary Bishop OF the Episcopal
Church, came to this city three months ago to
assist in the parOchial duties of St. Luke's Epsc0-
pal church. He was only deacon at the time
Of his arrival here, but was to have been
fully ordained as a priest tomorrow Trinity
Sunday. Some few days back Rev. Mr.. Rankin,
rector OF ST. Luke's notified Bishop Nottingham
that he had objections to the Ordaining OF young
Southgate. The Bishop concurred with the rector.
and Southgate was advised to return to his father's
home. Instead OF doing SO he remained here
fciating at st. Lukes up to Thursday morning.
After assisting at morning prayer on that day
and partaking OF the sacrament he sud-
denly abandoned his post, left his lodgings,
and before night became an inmate OF st.
Mary's seminary OF the Roman Catholic Church, an
institution under the control OF the Sulpicans. IL
is understood that the grounds OF objection to his
being ordained in the Episcopal Church were his
lental condition.
His father has arrived here, and an effort is to be
made to remove him from the seminary The
AFFAIR has created considerable excitement in
church circles, as ST. Lukes is the leading EpiscO
pal high church OF the city.

REPORTED D1sAFFEcT1oN IN THE SPANISH
ARMY.-One of our latest cable dispatches has
it that the officers Of the Spanish army are
preparing to pronounce against the Republic
and to summon the old Cortes to reassemble.
If this report is founded in fact we may ex-
pect at any moment to hear of lively times in
Spain. 1t is a notorious fact that in all pre-
vious Spanish revolutions the army has been
the controlling power. 1t is just as notorious
that not one of the members Of the present
republican government is prominently con-
nected with the army. The late elections have
resulted more largely in favor of the Republic
than the conservatives deemed possible. II
the officers are disappointed by the elections

SHOOTING AT SOLDIERS.

DR.. Duvan, Surgeon OF the Naval Hospi-
tai at Annapolis, Shoots Two Persons
for Gathering . Few Wild strawber-
rtes.
BALTIMORE, June 9, 1873.
On wednesday afternoon DR.. Duvall surgeon In
and seriously wounded Purcell, private OF the
Marine Corps, and Donovan, a drummer boy, who
were engaged in gathering wild strawberries on
the government farm. The act was deliberate
Duval taking his shotgun and following them until
custom to permit the men to gather wild fruit on
this farm, and hence Duvas act is generally con-
sidered as brutal and unauthorized.
A court-martial will be ordered in the case The
men are wounded with shot In the head and face,
but neither OF them are likely to die from the
effects of the shooting.
