ESPECIAL TO THE s-EN1ISEL.l
Cr~ScrNHArI, June 28.-The final day for
the collection Of the tax IN liquor and
beer saloons, assessed under the Scott
law, was postponed some time ago by the
County Commissioners till July l, so that
there now remain but three days to com
plete the payment without . penalty. As
soon as the constitutionality Of the law
became known yesterday, the sa~loon-keep-
ers began payment. Eleven thousand dol
lars were paid in before night. To-day
the rush was greater. The Treasurer's
Office was crowded. The facilities for dis
patching business are good, and by to-
night the total sum paid in will be over
800, 600. The saloon men very generally
acquiesce. In some Of the saloons display
cards with the legend ''This is q law
abiding establishment" are seen. Those
who have paid post their certificates con-
sp~icuously, to show that o are under
the protection Of the law. Hitherto all
intoxicating liquors except ale, wine and
beer had to be drank where sold, but this
was illegal, and, though the law was gen
orally dead, it's repeal, and the substitu-
ton of the tax, gives the saloon men q
legal standing in their business, which
most Of them appreciate.
A Letter From Gen. Crook.
WH1pPLE B~ARRAcxs, June 28.-To the
Adjutant General Of the Army, Washing
ton: The report that the Chiricahuas had
been forced upon the San Carlos Indian
Reservation is incorrect. The facts in the
case are that those who had surrendered
were sent forward with four companies Of
cavalry and Indian scouts. My instruc-
tions to Capt. Crawford were that the
Chiricahuas should be kept with the
scouts until other arrangements could be
made. The C~hiricahuas who went after
their families told me they would reform
the column at the line, or should we have
gone too fast, then they would follow
along the mountains and come in at San
Carlos. We have no means Of communi-
eating with them until they come in at the
agency, and if the new arrivals find those
who started back with us are not with the
scouts, we destroy all chances OF ever re-
ducing them to a state of peace. The In
dams at San Carlos are in nc danger OF
being contaminated by contact with the
Chiricahaus. As q matter OF humanity /
am anxious to get in the last Of the band,
80 as to leave nothing undone for the re-
covery of the captive boy.
(Signed) CROOK.

ADJUTANT GENERALS OFFICE,
Washington, June IS.
To Crook: The Secretary Of the Interior
has shown the Secretary Of War . tele-
graphic dispatch from Agent Wilcox, say
lux bu&b4 hV ACAOA0AV ~ WSAV
on the reservation on the Gath inst. As

the 18th inst. gave special directions to
keep the prisoners apart from the Indians
who continue peaceful, he supposes Of
course that the agent is incorrect In his
statement a. given above. But II his
orders in this respect have been misunder-
stood, he desires to repeat the instructions
OF June 10, and have them fully carried
out. (Signed) R. O. DRUM, Adj-Gen.
