firm the reports of Yesterday, that all
the Chiricahua Indians, except Chief
Kakakeese, had left the reservation.
Tucson, A. T., April 13.-Yester-
day Governor Stafford telegraphed
General Kautz, asking permission to
lead 200 San Carlos Apaches against
the Chiricahuas. The General re-
piled that Major Brayton would go
Immediately to San Carlos and en-
list all the scouts necessary, and he
(Kautz) would arrive in ten days and
take the field in person. Governor
Stafford has written letter to Cen
orai Mariscal, of Sonora, requesting
him to send all the available troops
to Arizona to prevent the ChiEicahuas
from taking refuge in Sonora. Ii is
the intention to severely punish this
band, SO they will be willing to stay
where they belong. There is no APP
prehension of the San Carlos Indians
breaking out, and as they lumber
four to one of the Chiricahuas and
can be used against them, it is ex-
pected to make short work Of the
Chiricahuas. --
