General FOrsythe Interviewed.
CHICAGO, June l2.-General George
A. Forsythe is here. In an interview
in regard to the Apaches, he says:
Secretary Teller's policy in disarming
the Indians meets with the warm ap-
proval of all the officers, and will do
much toward preventing outbreaks and
raids. The rapid development of rail
roads in Mexico and portions of Arizona
are also doing much to settle the vexed
Indian question. The proclamation OF
the President to the cowboys, while it is
somewhere sneercd at, has really been
productive of much good. Although
the best citizens of the two Territories
had combined to put them down, in q
great many instances the task was a
difficult one. With the Indians and
cowboys out of the way, the mining and
grazing interests of these Territories
will appreciate rapidly.
