Crook Speaks.
OMAHA, ME-, Sept. 6.-General George
Crooks, now commanding the Department OF
the Platte, commanded the Arizona Depart
ment from ISL to 1875 and during that
time conquered the A2aches. He says there
were twenty or more bands OF Apaches, over
which Pedro, WHO is reported TO have led
the party who massacred Capt. Hentig and
his men, was chief. The Apaches numbered
twenty thousand; about SIX thousand were
hostiles and lived In the White Mountain
country They were very desperate and
fought with great bravery and skill. The
country in which they live is almost inac-
cessable. The lava beds of the Modocs, in
which Capt. Jack made such remarkable
stand, are macadamized roads in COMPARISON
with these heights and craSs where the hos
tile Apaches live. They are not only brave,
but are the most cunning Indians on the
American continent, being lar superior to
the Sioux in intellect They cannot be
starved out, as the White Mountains abound
in game and also the mescal, nutrious
plantscmething like the aloe or century PLAN,
which they use for food. One squaw can
gather enough in day to last 4 whole fam.
lly year During Gen. Crooks Campaign
Pedro was peaceable, and was then man OF
good character; he will make powerful
leader. All the White Mountain Indians
are probably engaged in the outbreak; there
are between 200 and |, 800 warriors among
them. 1t will take strong icrce TO subdue
them, and Infantry will b. the most service
able.

General Grant was complimented, just
before the adjournment for the holidays,
by the two Houses of Congress suspend
ing their. business for the purpose of pay
ing respects to him, comment was
made on the fact that two
or three prominent Republicans
in the Senate and the House of
Representatives were conspicuously alb
sent on that occasion. Among those
more prominently mentioned in this
connection was Senator Blaine 1t is
said that the reason why Mr.. Blaine
neglected to pay his respects to General
Grant in the Senate chamber was that
only few days before, when in New
York, General Grant had declined to see
him when he called and sent in his card.
Mr.. Blaine, it is said, was also informed
that General Grant had said he would
never speak to him again. Friends
here of General Grant also say
that he is incensed against Gen. Sher-
man on account of the structures of the
latter on the proposition to create Gen.
Grant Captain General. la fact it is cur.

welded together in the process of rolling
them into bars. The cost of the chemi-
