FORT THOMAS, April 20.h.--
Sterling, Chief of Police, and the
first Sergeant Of the Police, were
killed yesterday morning at Loco's
camp at the agency. Sterling was
badly mutilstsd, his head and one
of his hands having been cut near
ly off. One Of the shots struck
him above the right eye. On re-
ceipt OF the news here, Col. Sco-
field was the first man in the sad
die and, although the cavalry
horses were out on herd, inside of
an hour, two companies of the
Sixth Cavalry, l. and B, com
manded by Lieutenants Anderson
and Sands, were on the road, with
Scofield in charge. They made
the Apache crossing, eighteen
miles, in two hours. Scotield, as
we'll as the officers and men, had
only one blanket. They struck
the trail ct the crossing of the
Apache road and pursued the In
dams until they made them scst-
ter in all directions. AT Ash Creek,
last night, it was reported that Juh
with his entire band came in by
way of Eagle Crack. Rumors from
Eagle Creek say that McMaster
and six MeXicans were killed Nc
Masters is partner OF George
Stevens and had some four tbous.
and head of sheep on Eagle Creek.
There were about one hundred
and ten Indians left, including
those of Juh's band. They were
sent In and it is supposed that
there was a large force remaining
on Eagle Creek. Fears are enter
tanned for the safety of Tom New
land and wife, McMurren and son,
Lamb and son and some other par
ties.
A party just from Stafford
says that, at Eagle Creek,
this morning there were three pros.
pectors killed on the Apache road.
The bodies were yet warm when
the troops came up with them.
Scefield's pack train could not
keep up with him and be ordered
it to return to Fort Thomas this
morning. The command having
no rations will likely return to
their post some time to day. Gill
son. q freighter. together with his
son and a hired man, abandoned
their wagons about eight miles
from the agency aud made good
their escape, part getting to the
branch the others to the San Car
los agency. The Indians destroyed
the freight, shot some of the horses
and carried others off with them.
They also tried to set fire to the
wagons.
3:l5 p. M-Sinee writing the
above, Stevens writes from Stafford
that there were ten persons killed
at Eagle Creek, including McMas.
tiers, wife and children. He also
states that one of his Indian herd
ers, who was taken prisoner by
Maize and Juh, escaped and says
that Newland, McMurrcn and par
ty are all killed. Stevens asks the
government for troops. So far
We have heard nothing from
the commanding officer in
the field at Wilcox as to
whether there are any troops
