Prenarntion. for Protection.

A dispatch was received by Acting l Governor Gosper Thursday inform ing him of the organization of con- pauy Of 75 men at Pinal, and requesting 70 stand Of arms. Also one from Queens Creek, announcing that warlike Indians were within sixteen miles of them. and that a company J0 strong had been or ganized. and requesting 50 stand Of arms for their use.
 General Wilcox also requests the or gauizatiou Of minute men to protect the settlers iu the valleys of the lower San Pedro and Arivipai. To this the Gov ernOr was able to reply tEat company had already been organized at old Fort Grant, and only wanted arms to make them available. The settlers on the lower San Pedro claim to be able t0 pro tect themselves if furnished with arms.
 In relation to the supply of arms, General Wilcox telegraphs that the Sec retary of War authorizes the sale Of arms and ammunition, but that there are few, # any, surplus at the posts. He wants Co know the number the Governor desires to purchase, as only for organ- ized companies can arms be drawn with out purchase. The Governor Is now h telegrarhic communication with the General to ascertain the number ot arms that can be had. the price and from what points they can be furnished; aiso 1T arms can be issued to the companies now reported as legally organized.

More Slork Stealing.

Another characteristic outrage by cow boys or "rustlers" is reported from Hereford. We learn that on Sunday, at about l o'clock, some eight or ten men made a raid on the town and ran off eighteen head of stock, ten horses belonging Co the stage company and eight to private citizens. The attack was very sudden, and the stock was rounded up and driven off SD quickly that it would be impossible to identify all the parties engaged in the robbery, but several of them are well known, having frecuently been seen in Tom b. stone. At first 1t was thought the out rage was perpetrated by small band of Indians, but as no disguise was worn by any of the parties engaged m the affair." there can be no doubt as to the charac- ter of the raiders.-Nugget.

Snlcndid Ore.

Don Carlos NelascO received by mai Friday morning several pounds of gold quartz that is literally filed with free gold. IL came from Sonora, and as NIT Velasco has not yet received any ex- pianatory letter, he has no knowledge oi fbe exact whereabouts of the mlne, but from the postmark thinks 1t near Ala mos. in the vicinity of Guaymas. The ouartz is of a peculiar grey color, baying the appearance of imperfectly caiclned limestone. II IS porus and erumbles easily in the hand. The bright particles of gold are iuterspersed pretty evenly throughout. and if there is any great ouautitv of ore like the samples, the mine will be a source of immense wealth to its owners.

 APACHE, September 3d, PM.
 According to orders l went out ou
 Monday. the 29th ult, to arrest Mock. ay-det-klm-ne, the medicine man who
 has besn melting the Indians to hostili. | tles. lie prcfessed perfect willingness ! to come. 1 made the interpreter tell : hm m the hearing of all the others that he would not be hart, and that be would be released as sOon as it was found out that the reports were not true that be had sald the whites would leave the country as soon as the corn got ripe. Told him If he tried to escape, or if a rescue should be attempted he would be killed. He smiled at each of these state ments, replied that he had no intention to escape and there was Do idea of res cue. There were only an ordinary num- Der of bucks about, but after VIC started with him to make camp, about two miles down the creek, they began to come in from the hills. l used what precaution thought best and not show too much suspicion of his friends, as ! wished them to believe tbat only took him in to talk because he dld not come when l sent for him.
 As We were making camp the Indians crowded along and there were a good many armed, so l told Hentig, who was officer of the day. to order them back. While ae vas doing so, the firing com menced, the scouts and other Indians firing simultaneously. Carter was just assigning to the srOuts their camping place. More, tie First Sergeant. was with tbe prophet and Dead Shot was acting First Sergeant. When Carter as- signed the ground he pointed to an ant hlil and said, "No good" "Ihen," Car ter said, 'you may go further up." He says that just then they separated into a skirmish ine, dropping their guns and throwing in cartridges and fired at once. X scout named Dandy Jim or Dandy Bill shot Hentig in the back. The men jumped for their arms and We drove them back pretty soon. The magician was killed by the guard at the commencement. The Indians kept firing into camp til dark but only struck a few men after the first few minutes They sent reports to COoleys and va rioUs places that they had done so and SD and would kill us all in the morning.
 am confident that we could have stood of all the Indians in the country and We had ten days rations, but I had nothing more to do there, and there was great alarm here, and so, after burying the dead and fxing'to carry the wound ed, 1 started back and arrived here on the 3lst. The Indians attacked us here on the 1st and we had something of a time. Gordon was wounded in the slhn; ball struck square and entered about an inch. He is in command of Company D, with Cruse for an assistant. In the (my) command were Hentig, Carter, Cruse and Dr. Me Creery. All behaved beautifully.

GLOBE. September & 1ss1.

GLOBE, September &, 1881
 EDITOR CITIZEN: The first reports of the Indian outbreak at Camp Apache and the killing of 115 soldiers and off eers, as expected at the time, proved to : be false, the number was only seven sol diers and one officer killed. Thl excite ment here IS subsiding somewhat, and since the attack on Middleton's ranch on Cherry creek, which resulted in the kill ing Of Geo. Turner and Henry Moody and wounding of Henry Middleton, in the shoulder on last Friday, there is no further news from that section up to date. There are grave fears entertained 1 here for the safety of the settlers in Pleasant Valley and upper Cherry creek, and two companies from Globe number ing Tn all about fifty men, well armed aud mounted, have gone to their rescue, from whom We expect news tonight. The Middleton family all arrived here in safety after escaping from their ranch on Friday night under cover of darkness all on foot. They were fortunate in falling in with some men from here who had started out to warn them of the danger, but failed to reach them in time. They returned with them to Globe and after seeing them safely here, the party were reinforced and started immediately for the scene of the killing. The estinl- ated number of Indians on the warpath IS $50, who are. principally White Noun tain Indians, with perhaps a few rene gades from other b;fds. The Globe and San Carlos Telegraph Company in order As. = .F regarding the Indian troubles has thrown thelr office here open to the public, which action on the part of those gen tlemen Is certainly highly commendable. And 1t Is also gratifying to see the prompt action taken by General Wilcox in distributing troops for the protection of the exposed settlements, which promptness on the part of the military, with the cooperation of the good citi- zens, means just simply the early SUD- precision of the lawless and savage hos tiles, If not their utter exteTmination, for everything IS moving around in a shape with both citizens and military that shows plainly that they mean business and will work together in one common cause to again secure peace and safety for our lives and property. All are aware that the sooner peace Is restored the better 1t will be for all concerned, and we appeal to all good citizens throughout the Territory to lend help ing hand and do all they possibly can to aid in the accomplishment of that pur- pose. Tn conclusion, I will state that 1 don't believe Globe is in any danger of 1 being attacked by the hostiles, but it is | well enough to be on guard shosld such 1 an event occur. We are sadly in need | of more arms here, and 1t is to be hoped | that the authorities will forward them | as soon as possible, for the want is ccr- ! tainly very pressing, and should be at tended to at once. Yours,
 PIONEER.

ONE of the @sure thing" games met its match the other night. A verdant look ing countryman was brought up by a capper and induced to bet The revolv- ing needle did not show any favor to the betting man, and he lost He was in- duced to double the bet, with a hope of saving his money, and the needle again decided against him. He was vigorously piled with the ready logic of the game keeper, and ran up the bet to about 960, and had exchanged his check for funds to continue the game, when it seemed to suddenly dawn upon his mind that he was victim of foul play. With a re- mark to the manipUlator of the magic needle, that he guessed he could stop that needle where he wanted to-" the countryman reached ever and took the money he had bet, and pocketed it. Too many policemen were present for any disturbance to follow, and he went his way unmOlested.

THE Journal does not regard the result of the San Francisco elections as a Re publican victory because every body voted the Republican ticket. That is peculiar logic, but then we will let that pass. We have wondered for years why every body did not vote the Republican ticket There IS hope for San Francisco if 1t only continues in well doing.

Sfagc Rnhher Arre,ied.

About eight months ago the stage from Florence to Globe was robbednear Dripping Springs, between Riverside and Globe, by parties among whom Pony Dahel. or Dale, was recognized as a leader. A lookout has since been kept for the robJeT, and recently Sheriff Paul ascertained that he had been seen sev- eral times about Harshaw, and a full de scription of the man, with authority for his arrest, were sent to Deputy Sheriff J. W. Eyarts at Harshaw, who recognized Dahel on Wednesday, and after a des- perate resistance succeeded in arrestlIg him. He was brought to Pantano Thurs day, and arrived here by the west bound trnn at an early hour Friday. As Dripping Springs is near the line between Pinal and Gila counties, Sherii Paul was in doubt as to which county the crime was committed in, and Friday le telegraphed to Florence for inform ation on this point. The pris- oner will be held until demanded by the officers of the proper jurisdiction.
