Three eourriers have come into Camp

thirty.fire miles from Camp Apache.
One hundred and ten men and seven

SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 8.
At General McDoweli's headquarters
at the Presidio dispatch from General
Wilcox was received last night, which
says he has received news by an Indian
runner that Carr's command, including
himself aud six other officers and sixty.
four enlisted men. were killed August
3lst. and that the Indians had killed
seven or eight inen. including an eI.
pressman. between Forts Apache and
Thomas. A dispatch received from
G"neral Wilcox this morning says he
has received news that few escaped
from Cars disaster ut Cihicu Creek,
which is forty miles west of Fort Apache.
Those who escaped are fighting their
way to the Fort, but it is doubtful il
they can get in. Preda's band attacked
Fort Apache. but the department com
munder thinks he must have been re-
pulsed, and that he now holds the
canyon through which the road from
Fort Thomas to Fort Apache passes.
At the downtown Office OF the United
States Army no information has been
received regarding the reported massa-
ere Of General Carr and his command.
The officers there infer from the orders
for the disposition of troops that the
report is practically correct, and that an
outbreak on a serious scale has taken
places A company Of The First Cavalry,
stationed at Fort McDermit, and an
other Mt Camp Halleck. and a company
of the Eighth Infantry at Bsnicia have
been ordered to start at once forArizona.
A report from Fort Thomas says that
the Indian scouts. who were with Carr's
command. turned and made the first
attack on our troops. After The fight.
part of the Indians FASTENED to Fort
Apache and took the fort. 1t is thought
some escaped, but it is not ceriain.
Several Of the officers wives, including
Carr's wife, were at the fort.
