STILL.

It is now nearly four weeks since any
definite information has been received
from Gen. Crook and his handful OF
soldiers and Indian scouts. The first
rumor from the mountain Businesses was
one Of disaster. the kilograms being bur-
dened with fears Of the massacre OF
Crook and his comrades. But more re-
Gently the news, although not definite,
was more cheering. A fatal Gordon OF
American and Mexican troops are grad
ualIy closing in around the desperate
band Of Apaches, who, driven to their
last stronghold in the heart OF the noun
tains, will engage in a death struggle,
which will possibly close in the exter-
mination Of this blodi-thirsty band. In
their frequent raids they have spared
neither sex mo- age; whole families have
been exterminated and counties laid
waste. The end is nearing, now, and
the blow struck will undoubtedly silence
the Apache war whoop for many years to
come. Army officers in Helena, who
have rode with Crook in former Arr
IONA campaigns, express the utmost
confidence in the intrepid Indian fighter.
They say that he thoroughly under
stands the Indian character and mode
Of warfare; that he is . safe, cautious
commander, who fully understands the
dangers of his mission, and acts accord
ingly. The agreement with the Mexican
Government by which he pursues the
Apaches into Mexico and the Sierra
'Madres is as we'll understood by the Ad-
m~inistration at Washington as it is by the
Mexican authorities, and upon a question
of violation Of the treaty there need be no
apprehension. The stipulation as made
was that the United States could pursue
the Indians into Mexico on . hot trail, or
vice versa, and while it contained limita-
tations they were not such as Crook has
infrinped apon. Gen. Crooks life has
been one of warfare. Graduating from
West Point in 1852, he went to Fort
Jones, California. He was on duty on
Rogue River from IS to SO, and in '57 he
was in command of the Pitt River expe-
dition, and was severely wounded in q
skirmish with the Indians. He was also
engaged in several other Indian skirmishes
the same year, and in '5S he took part in
the Yakima expedition. He served on
the frontier until '6l, when he was made
Captain. He participated in a majority
Of the battles of the rebellion, serving as
q Brigadier of volunteers. In '66 he was
made q Lieutenant Colonel in the regular
army, and a Brigadier in '73. being pro-
noted over half the Lieutenant-C Colonies
in the army and all the Colonies. Last
year he was put in command of the de-
partment Of Arizona. His career has
been a stormy one. and we hope new
lsurels will be added to the gallant old
veteran in the wild mountains of Mexico.

A WashingtOnian Mt n Labor Meeting
in Baltimore.

A large meeting of cigar makers and rep
resentatives of other trades was held in
Baltimore last night, the object being to ef-
feet more perfect organization of work
ingmen. Among those present were Mr.. A.
W. Brock, of the Washington Topographic
cal Union, who gave description Of how
Senator Plumbs efforts to cut down the
rates of Government printers had been de-
feated by the unanimous action of
the different trade unions all. over
the country, and he held this re-
suit up as an illustration of what could be
done by combining. He thought that
thorough organization In Baltimore would
raise wages from ten to twenty per cent.
There are, he said, 100000 wage men in
the United States. Relative to politics, the
speaker advised them to put their trust
neither in Democrats nor Republicans, lbut
to rise up themselves and assert their
strength. He said Governor Cleveland had
gone back ON the workiagmen by vetoing
the bill for five-cent fares on the elevated
railroads. Most politicians, he said, were
in the power of huge corporations. Presi,
dent Arthur had accepted train rendered
him by n railroad to go to Florida.
