Texas Senator.
DALLAS (Tezss), July 15tb.-Ssate Sen.
ator Barrett Gibbs, of Dallas, returned last
night from an extended trip to Mexico. In
an interview he said he was surprised at
what he saw aad heard concerning the late
campaign in the southwest. He went into
the valleys and country which were lately
overrun by the Apaches, and visited the
scenes Of General Crooks late exploits. He
says that residents of these valleys laugh at
the newspaper accounts OF the captures
made by General Crook. They say
that instead of Crook capturing fight.
ing Indians, they captured him. He
did take in few old Indians and
squaws, and started out OF the mountains.
The bucks, about eighty in number, followed,
overlook and sent in messenger who asked
Ter powwow. This was granted, snd tbs
warriors came in, and in the boldest manner
told General Crook that he would be allowed
to leave on condition that he would promise
TO get the Government 30 permit them to. re-
turn to the reservation without punishment.
This he promised, because he could not help
himself. Residents of the valleys say
that the mountain Apaches who were
WOW divided their ammunition with the hos.
tiles. The latter told General Crook that
some of their men were without horses,
and that sa soon as they could go down
into the Mexican settlements and get
their horses, they would follow him
into the reservation. They did this,
killing several Mexicans on their way. The
valley folks say that the White Mountain
Apsches were opeGly.in communication with
the hostiles. and would never fight them, As
an Illustration of the friendship between the
two, one of the White Mountain Apaches
appssred among the soldiers with the watch
Of Judge McComas, who had been killed by
the hostiles. Being Intercepted 90 to where
he obtained the watch. he said he got it from
o squa8. A son of the Judge had to pay
turb the friendly relations with ths White
Mountain Apaches by making him give il
up. Senator Gibbs says this is only sample
OF the volumes Of unwritten history Of the
late campaign that could be furnished, and
that the public has been imposed upon.

in regard to his proposed Western trip, that
he can get eli the society he wants during the
winter, and that he can learn mora by trip
to the West than lie could by an indefinite
number of Seasons at Newport or Long
Branch. There Is no longer any doubt that
two citizens Of New York are Presidential
candates-Chester A. Arthur and Samuel ],
Tilden. There are good many outward H.
dications that General Arthur has decided to
submit himself as candidate to the Repub-
lican National Convention. This ia no longer

begins to talk it TO those with whom he is

qusintance with the people. To prominent
Republicans from different parts Of the
country who have talked with him within
two weeks, he has created an impression that
he ia in The field. His New York friends no
longer make any concealmsnt of the fact.
His recent movements in New York politics
can I'll be explained better upon the theory of
his candidacy than on sly other hyp Jthesis.
The details of the trip which he is now az
ranging will tend to show the same thing.

The Prosecution OF Architect SEil,
CHICAGO, July 15th.-A special from Wash
iDgton says; The parties who ere engineering
the prosecution OF Supervising Architect
Hill do not expect to get report adverse to
him from the committee making the inves.i-
cation. They admit that the evidences against
him is net direct, and that wherever too
much money seems TO have been spent, it is
easy for Hill to make it appsar, st the worst,
that it was nothing more than an error Of
judgment. The case against Hill resembles
somewhat the case against Brady. Hill, as
Brady, was an oficer clothed necessarily with
certain discretionary powers, and to convict
him IL Is necessary not only TO expnnge his
acts, bat also TO prove corrupt motives.
