The INDIANS STORY.
what the Loco Family Say Abeut Gen.
Crook and the Hostiles.

Davis, eff the 30th cavalry, after an examine
ton of the Indians recently surrendered at
Don Carlos. report the Chihuabnas surrend-
cred belong to the Loco's family, numbering
boys. % women and children.
Sixty-six days ago Mexican troops surprised
the hostiles in the southern Sierra Madres.
This party of Indians were cut off from the
main body and three days after the fight
started for the reservation. One of the party
went back to bring in Loco, but Loco is too
old to travel and told them to come without
him. All the Indians we're together when
surprised by the Mexican troops. Charley
McCOmas was with them and was we'll treated.
He was kept to aid them in case Of surrender.
The Indians knew nothing of Gen. Crook
when they left, but knew the country was
full of troops and if attacked will fight until
whipped and then scatter through the Sierra
Madres. If whipped, the Indians will scatter
in small parties. Gen. Crook probably will
not meet any of them before reaching the
extreme southern part of the Sierra Madres.
Don't know the exact number of fighting
men, but it is between 100 aud $50. There
are more than 800 women and children. The
Indians think Crook will have trouble to find
the hostiles.

pilotage system.
A resolution was adopted requesting the
pilot commissioners (three of whom are ap-
pointed by the chamber of commerce) to
withdraw the license of all pilots not actually
engaged in sea service for at least seven
months in the year, and to authorize and en-
courage without delay, four steam pilot boats
for service at this port and take all necessary
steps to have such steam fat-b properly
manned and filed.

had been informed that each of the New York
pilots was compelled to pay an assessment of
$40 month to secure legislation for the
benefit of pilots. This fund Amounted to
nearly $4,000 year. The report and re-
concentrations of the committee were adopt
