George Johnson had absconded with

will be curious to hear what the effect

Judge Zane's charge in this case. And
it will be interesting, also. to hear the
new evidence, obtained by the attorneys
for the defense, establishing, conclu-

how an innocent man can be con

revolver and fired one shot which
entered Slocumb's head at the base of
the skull, and he fell from the stool to
the floor and died almost instantly. I'M
mediately after this, Foss went to the
back room, and putting the muzzIe of
the pistol to his right temple, pulling

The Apaches.

WASHINGTON, June 6.-The following
dispatch, dated Whipple Barracks,
Arizona, June I'd, has been received at
the War Department, from General
Pope: Captain Smith reports from
ella River. near Sapillo, May Goth, that
the Indians are in the very rough
mountains north of him, and that
Chats, chief of the scouts, with forty
men, struck their rear guard and was
after them. In another dispatch of the
31st, from the same place, he says the
main body of the Indian
women and children are scattering
through the mountains east of
Buck Greek and north of the
ella; that Chatto and his scouts are
hunting them, and he remains in the
vicinity until he hears from Chatto, and
that the day before. Chatto got ponies
and saddles from the Indians. He says
a party is ralding east of him, and a
dispatch from General Crook, at
Bayard, yesterday, says they have no
definite news from the scouting parties
or Indians"
In another dispatch to General Drum,
dated San Francisco, June Sd. General
Pope says: Everything possible is be-
ing done to put stop to the Indian
troubles in Alszona and New Mexico.
Only thirty-four men of the
Apaches have gone off with their
woman and children and are
trying to get into Mexico, killing and
taking everything that happens TO fall
in their way. The difficulty is to over
come or head them of, but there is a
large force of cavalry after them from
various directions, and it would seem
that they must be captured. General
Crook, who knows more about these In
dians than any other person, is in the
field himself, and he says he needs NO
more troops. Of course, the newspaper
reports are sensational and exaggerated,
and create unnecessary alarm. No
other Indians have left the San Carlos
reservation, except the party above in
dicated."
WASHINGTON, June Crook tele-
graphs General Sheridan that Indians
passed Duncan Station on the night of
the 4th instant, going south, well
mounted and travelling very fast, and
states that it looks now as if the only
chance is that the troops at Guadalupe
Canyon can intercept them. Captain
Crawford, with ninety scouts, will pur-
sue them.
A dispatch from Brady, of the 9th
instant, states that the hostiles have
left Magohon Mountains, and are
moving south.

The Ameer Murdered.

ST, PETERSBURG, June 6.-The Novosti
(newspaper) announces that it has been
privately informed from the Caucasus
that the Ameer of Afghanistan, Abdur-
rahman, has been murdered by his suite.
1t is said that the murder took place in
Persia, where the Ameer was at the
time travelling, and that Ayoub Khan,
the deposed Ameer, viii be his successor.
The report causes much excitement.
The reported murder of the Amer OF
Afghanistan is doubted in Official circles
here, as government had received no
information up to a late hour this
afternoon tending to confirm the
rumor. Some believe that the report is
stock jobbing canard.

The Civil Service Talk.

WASHINGTON, June 6.-Commissioner
Eaton being asked what foundation
there was for the rumors published in
some of the papers lately, that there
had been collisions between the Civil
Service Commission and the heads of
the departments. or an unfriendly
spirit manifested on the part of the
latter, and especial on the part of the
Secretary of the Interior, toward the
Commission, says there is no
foundation whatever for such
rumors. They appear, Mr.. Eaton
saws, to have originated among
the enemies of reform and of the policy
of the administration. No head of de-
partment has shown any disposition to
eyade the rules or to embarrass the
commission. The story about the COM
mission rebuking the Secretary of the
Interior, in connection with desired
certification from Dakota, was utterly
baseless. Secretary Lamar has done
nothing of which the commission has
the least ground for complaint.
