RAIDING REDSKINS.
a Conspiracy Amongst Them-Our Troops
| Not Keeping Posted-More Men Killed
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 3Oth inst, referring to
the Indian troubles, says: Agent Wilcox
| obstinately 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-
gsrding the status ct San Carlos prove
false. 1t 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 Jghs and Jerom-
| mas Chiricahuas fresh from Mexico. These
latter are the San Carlos Apaches who left
the reservation Sept. 30, 1881, returned IN
! nolested to San Carlos the following April
| and renewed their strength by the Access
sion of Chief Locosts band and after kill
ing the chief of police, Sterling, and an
Indian scout, went on 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 Chlricahua 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 ne
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-NINE PERSONS KILLED IN NINE DAYS.
TUosoN, Ariz., March 31.-The White
mountain Indians are on the war path this
moruilg. Unless something is accom-
p!ishad, 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
10 give Crook an opportunity. Twenty
seven we're killed in nine days at Hermo-
sillo Mexico; thirty-two persons killed in
nins days by hostiles moving toward Ari-
IONA through spareely 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 sBOBT 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 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 SPARE NO PRISONERS.
Tucson, A. T., March 31.-It is reported
that Capt. Dougherty, who is scouting the
country between Dragon summit and
Sulphur Springs valley, has had orders
from Gen. Crook to take no Indians pris-
oners. j. II. Carroll, of ella Valley, was
surrounded by large band of Indians
north of Carlisle last night, but escaped
into Richmond.
SAN Francisco, March 31.-A gentleman
from Arizona cofrms the report that
a secret society exists among the whites in
Arizona to exterminate the male Apaches
on the San Carlos reservation, and all
foand rowing north of the frontier. The
reservation is looked upon as a mere ref
uge for the Indians, where they retire
when hard pressed to obtain provisions,
arms, ETC., ready for another raid.
JUDGE M'CoMAs' WIFE AND THREE PROS
PECTORs KILLED.
SANTAF n. NJ, March 31.-The Shake
speare Guards, Capt. Black, doing service
against the Indians, have made their ap-
peerance on the lower ella. Black moved
through the Skins pass, above the canon
route, usually taken by the Indians return
ing to Mexico. This together with the
fact that regulars we're moving out on the
railroad, caused the Indians to cross the
plains into the Burr mountains.
Black procured fresh horses and
followed so closely that the
Indians were compelled to abandon
bheir norseS ana pIunder, and took to the
mountains on the South Pacific road on
foot. When last heard from Black was in
hot pursuit. It will be difficult for noun
tain troops to follow into the mountains.
The movement into New Mexico is net a
raid, but an effort to get back into Mexico
by the least difficult route.
They killed Judge McComas, wife and
three prospectors yesterday because they
happened to ne in the route of escape.
Black is reported to have fought to-day
and lost several men, but it lacks confr-
nation.
Thompson, with a body of the Fourth
cavalry, is still in pursuit, and will follow
the hostiles into Mexico. A recent treaty
