 TOMBSTONE, June lO-Couriers and residents from Bisbee arrived this morning with the intelligence of the killing by the Apaches of Wm. A. Daniels, mounted inspector of customs, last night. Daniels, accompanied by a man and boy, followed the trail in Dixie caiion, in the Mule mountains, ten mll,s from Bisbee. Daniels WIS in advance. He suddenly found himself in an am buscade and the Indians among the rocks, shot and killed his horse. From appearances it seems the animal must have fallen on him. pinning him to the ground. Helplessly entGpgled under his dead steed, Daniels, despite his skill with his rifle and great personal courage, was unable to defend himself, and they then shot him dead at leisure, then cut his throat and mutilated his corpse. His companions escaped by hi,ht. Armed men from Bisbe on receipt of the IDfor- nation started after the Apsches and a courier was sent to Tombstone for assis- tance, saying the Indians were surround ed in the canon. IT IS town is again Tn an uproar, and about thirty volunteers, we'll armed, started for the sceue at 10 a, m., with A. T. Jones and several experi- enced men at their head. Mayor ThOm- as also. with twenty-five well armed men, started m two wagons for the foothills, which they will reach by dark. They will 20 around on the Sonora side of the mountains, leave the wagon at a ranch, take to the hills on foot and attack the Apaches where they are reported to be. Thirteen Indians are in this band, so far as Is known, while ss many as a hun dred arc in the county. The citizens are deeply incensed at the lack of action on the part of the troops, plenty of hich are in the field, but seem to be In wrong places. The following message was sent this morning reflects the sentiments of this community: Tombstone, June 10 Grover Cleveland, President, Washing ton.-About one hundred Indians from San Carlos have been raiding our county for the last week destroying property and killing ranchers. Last night W. A. Daniels, mounted custom inspector, was killed six miles from Bisbee. There are plenty of soldiers m the country, but they are incompetent to do anything. Can you not help us? Signed, F. $. Hatch Sheriff; 4. S Ritter, County Treasurer; \. T. Jones, County Recorder; John Montgomery, Chairman of the Board of Supervisors; Jno. c. Eaton, Collector of Customs; John F. Cum, Postmaster.
 Since the departure of the volunteers the city presents unwonted quiet. The Custom House fisg Is at half mast, in honor of Daniels as R faint emblem of the general regret at hIs death. He has taken a prominent and effective part in securing law and order in this commun- ity: he was a candidate for sheriff of Cocbise county at the last election and was generally esteemed and universally admired as a man; absolutely fearless and undeserving of the ignOminiOus death at hIs post of duty while defend ing the lIne against smugglers.
