| 1OAbSIONEs DcCs R. W A-A- hCAAAHkf o
 prominent attorney of lis cIty, has just
 returned from s eanpin-; trip Tor reerea- ton, in the vicinity of Fort Bowie. He
 reports that a son of Geronimo and wife, and a sou of Chihuahua, also a promI-
 neut chief. are among the twenty-tiy Apache prisoners at Fort Bowie. These
 csptives have been employed in making
 adobe walls for the construction of
 military quarters and such other
 menial occupation as Is required
 O. thair families. This has added
 to the naturally ,vepgsful spirit
 of hOstIles on the warpath. NIT.
 Herring states the fact of a desire on
 the pa f of the renegHdes tO re, cue their
 squaws, has made the military addition
 ally cautious, and fear of an attack on
 the fort for such a purpose necessitates
 the withholding of larger force from
 active operations than would otherwise
 be necessary. The best of authority al-
 SO states tba. Story's ranch, rear
 Black Rock, was destroyed at
 noon, yesterday, and at the
 same hour McGInnis' ranch, eight
 miles from Fort Bowie, was also des-
 troyed. Between these points the
 telegraph line has been cut and a DOT
 ton of the wire carried of. The trail
 at both points indicated four or five
 Indians. It is impossible to decide
 winch way the Indians intend taking to reach the Sierra Madres, their probable destination. Al. Sieber | left Solomonyille yesterday, on s trsll | leading into the foot hills at the mouth of the Gila BOnitO. Several parties of scouts and volunteers are out from Apache.
