RAIDING REDSKINS.

A Conspiracy Amongst Them-Our Troops
Citizens Threaten to Take Vengeance in
Their Own Hands.
ST. LOUIS, March 31.-A correspondent
of the Republican. writing from Globearis
under date of the Both inst, referring to
the Indian troubles, says: Agent Wilcox
o~bstinately denies that any Apaches are of
the reservation, but no statement of his,
official or otherwise, has any weight with
the people, for his previous statements re-
garding the status at San Carlos prove
false. It is demonstrated that the massa-
cres in progress in both terri
tories are perpetrated by the White
mountain Apaches from San Carlos,
! allied with some of the jams and Jerom-
| mas Chiricahuas fresh from Mexico. These
latter are the San Carlos Apaches who left
the reservation Sept. so, 1881, returned IN
molested to San Carlos the following April
and renewed their strength by the access
sion of Chief Locost's band and after kill
ing the chief of police, Sterling, and an
Indian scout, went on a grand raid through
out the territory. After killing 143 people
altogether, they returned to Mexico from
which they have recently emerged again.
Connection has been kept up during the
winter between these Ch1ricahua chiefs in
Mexico and their confreres in San Carlos
and a thorough understanding exists
between them. The feeling against Gen.
Crook is outspoken and severe, because he
has not made himself acquainted with
these facts, and taken measures to prevent
an outbreak or to meet the Indians who
were known to be coming up from the
south.
~FIFTY-NINEP PERSONS KILLED IN NINE DAYS
Tucson, Ariz., March 31.-The White
mountain Indians are on the war path this
morning. Unless something is accom-
plished, there is certain danger of an at
tempt by an organized body of citizens
from Clifton, Globe, Tombstone and the
San Carlos reservation people, not waiting
TO give Crook an opportunity. Twenty
seven were killed in nine days at Hermo-
sillo, Mexico; thirty-tWo persons killed in
nine days by hostiles moving toward Ari-
iona through sparcely settled regions.
THREE MEN KILLED.
LoRDsBURG, Cal, March 31.-A dispatch
from Separ states that three men were
killed between Separ and Animas valley
this morning. The Indians came within
one mile of Separ last night to an aban-
doned house. Capt. Black and his rangers
are following the trail. A fight may be
expected at any moment. The Indians
are doubtless making for old Mexico, and
fears are entertained they will reach there
before the rangers can overtake them.
COMING IN SHORT OF FULL NUMBERS.
TOMBSTONE, A. T., The shortage of ra-
lions issued this week is less than usual
and amounts to 1000 pounds on count to-
day. Simmons. who does that work, said
to Chief Skinny Tail, there is not one
sixteenth of your band here, and l will not
count you out all. Another chief was
eight men short out of a small band.
Mass meetings will be held throughout the
country to take steps regarding the In
dian question.
TO A NO PRISONERS.
Tucson, A. T., March 31.-It is reported
that Capt. DougAerty, who is scouting the
country between Dragon summit and
Sulphur Springs valley, has had orders

oners. j. II. Carroll, of ella Valley, was
surrounded by a large band of Indians
north of Carlisle last night, but escaped
into Richmond.
SAN Francisco, March 31.-A gentleman
from Arizona cofirms the report that
a secret society exists among the whites in
Arizona to exterminate the male Apaches
on the San Carlos reservation, and all
found rowing north of the frontier. The
reservation is looked upon as a mere ref
uge fol the Indians, where they retire
