Ell PAso, Tex, Oct 24-The Times's
specials from Casa Grande confirm the re-
ports of an engagement between Indians and
Mexican cavalry near that place. The au-
thorities refuse to tell the number wounded
and killed, but from an American surgeon
at that place it is learned the hospital is full
Surgeon Seron, of Chihuahua, is attending
the wounded. The Indians have broke camp
and separated into rowing bands of eight and
ten, and are raiding the surrounding coun-
try 1t is believed most of them have gone
into the State of Sonora. The natives are in
great fear. The following special to the
Times shows they are crossing the line on
the Mexican Central, an old trail, some dis
lance below where they killed Senator
Pushs son. The place named in the special
is forty-five miles north of Chihuahua:
"A crowd of raiding Indians came to Mil
ler's ranch last night, and stole eight horses
There is great excitement at Gallego. The
superstition Is that the raiders are the whole
or part OF uh's band at Casa Grande."
