Ell PAsO, TEXAS, October 4.--Adyices
from Deming, n. NJ, state that George w.
Wilson and ID. ii. Locory, who left there
September 10Th to get little Charlie McCo-
mas from the Indians, returned there yes
terday, their efforts having been unsuccess-
ful, owing to the death Of Ju, the principal
chief, who was drowned in the Casas
Grande river on the DIST while intoxicated,
which circumstance had demoralized the
band, and because OF the presence OF a
large body OF Mexican troops and the in
reference OF the Mexican local authorities.
The men report that the boy is alive and
well. and is with JUS widow, who does
not wish to give him up. They also re-
port that the Indians elected Geronomio
chief after the death Of Ju. ignoring the
latter's sons, and this has created bad feel
ing. Ger0nomio is said TO have $50 war
riors in his band, and to he using every
means in his power to obtain ammunition,
even Offering horse for ten cartridges.
