Reports COntradicting the Statement that
Crook Had a Battle.
Another Contradiction.

Tucson, A. T., May pa dispatch this
evening from Hermosillo contradicts the re-
port that General Crook had battle with
the Apaches on the 18th, saying if any en-
gagement had occurred the authorities at
that place would have heard of it. The fact
is, General Crook has been so maligned and
such abusive reports have been sent over the
country from some of the Arizona and Texas
papers that he is keeping his movements
quiet, and it will be impossible to get any
news from him until he has driven the Apa-
ehes from their stronghold and the Indian
question of Arizona is settled.

HAYDEN'S REMOVAL.
Funny Story In Which Dick Brigh Is a
Leading Character.

A Funny Story In Which Dick Brigh Is a
Leading Character.
Washington Special.
Sergeant-at-arms of the Senate Colonel
Dick Bright, has removed Chief Engineer
Hayden, of the Senate wing of the Capitol,
and appointed Thaddeus A. Jones, recently
assistant engineer. There is funny story
at the bottom of this change 1t appears
that Engineer Hayden invented a process of
making steel by the use of petroleum, A
joint stock company was organized, and
Colonel Bright invested, and engaged to put
the balance of the stock upon the market.
In this he succeeded. In the meantime En-
gineer HAYDEN, in the process of engineering
his own fortunes, got out another patent, the
use of which ruined the former one. The
new patent he disposed of to Senators Logan,
Jones, and others on the quiet leaving the
Dick Bright party the custOdans OF the dead
stock. Hence the removal OF Hayden.

WASHINGTON, May 29.-"Crook is all
right" said Ex-Governor McCook, of Col
orado, who has Just arrived in the city. 81
saw him on the day he left on his raid, and
he and his command were in first-class order,
He told me he did not intend to return to
the States until he had taught the Apaches
lasting lesson, and that means extermiua-
ton. The Indian scouts will remain loyal
and do good service. The people of the East
cannot understand that there are good
Indians and bad Indians, and thai the latter
class are held by the good Indians in the
same esteem we hold sand-baggers and
thugs The scouts Crook has with him are
probably as fine fighters as there are in the
world. They are devoted to Crook, and even
If they were not, the fact that their squaws and
proposes are left in the white mans hands,
would restrain them from treachery. If the
scouts should prove untrue to Crook, every
Indian woman and child connected with
them would be slaughtered.
In speaking of the report that the Mexi-
cans were jealous and would stand idly by
and see the A paches massacre Crook and his
command Governor McCook said: ''rhe re-
port is the veriest nonsense. The Mexicans
have been the chief sufferers, and they well
coined Crook as a valuable ally. They are
giving him the heartiest cooperation. The
stories of Crooks humiliation are absurd
and silly"
Reports COntradicting the Statement that
Crook Had a Battle.
TOMBSTONE. A. T., May 29-Two men hav e
arrived from Mexican headquarters. They
report that news is hourly expected from
Crook, but, up to the time of their depart
ure, none whatever had been received. They
state that no report had reached the head
quarters of the army of Northern Mexico of
engagement between Crook and the
Apaches When informed that such news
had been received they considered it doubt
full, as if an engagement had occurred the
news should have reached some of the many
posts with which communication is regu-
larly established. They said Crook had under
taken a difficult job, and would probably be
obliged to return to his base of supplies
without having encountered the Apaches.

Suing for n Tanned skin.

At the Tewksbury Investigation, IN

duced q piece Of tanned human skin
which hal been taken from an inmate
OF the Almshouse and converted into
leather at an adjacent tannery. TIL
boot and shoe firm Of which the tanned
skin was procured demanded the re-
turn ofthe specimen, but their request
was denied by the Governor, who
would not acknowledge any property
rights in human skin. Now, accord

have commenced proceedings TO Sc
cure it. They allege that the skin was
worth 81 500 to them, as they were

TAr TeIegraphers' Demand.

The striking te~legraphers have full
minated the following as the bases of
their demand on the Western Union
Company:
Section l. Believing that mans
physical and mental welfare requires
that at least che day IN seven be ac-
corded him for rest and recreation,
we request a total abolition OF Sunday
work as com pulsory duty, unless
compensated as extra service.
Sec. 2. That eight hours shall con-
stitute a days work and hours
= nights work.
Sec. 8. Both sexes shall receive
equal pay for equal work.
Sec. 5. That eight hours shall con-
stitute a regular days's work, and
thai compensation at the rate OF two
days pay shall be allowed for all Sun
day work; that the lowest salary paid
. regular line man shall be sos per
month, and for helpers $50. That the
duties OF line men shall be confined
solely to their legitimate work.
These demands are just in every
particular, and every lover Of human
rights will hope that the strikers may
succeed in establishing the principles
above promulgated. The third sec
ton is both manly and chivalric. Il
is to the effect that there shall be no
discrimination against women in the
matter of salarles-that both sexes
should receive the same rates Of pay
for the same service. This is only
just. Women are specially adapted
to telegraphic work and have shown
themselves capable of becoming the
most expert operators. This being
the case, why should they moi be paid
equally as well as the men? And the
same principle holds good in all de-
partments OF industry. The custom
that has so long prevailed Of re- vi
ing women 10 work for smaller wages
than the men is 50 manifestly arbi-
trary and tyrannical that the better
sentiment OF the age revolts against il.
II is TO the credit Of the Operators
Brotherhood thai it has openly de-
clared in favor Of the abolition OF this
feudal custom.
