END OF The APACHE WAR.

Lieut.. Davis Unexpectedly Runs Across

gus for Twenty Years the Terror of the
Rorder-ApAches Near I'll PasO for
Months
Ell PAso, Ten, Oct. 5,-News has been
received here today which confirms what
mas been feared for several weeks-name-
ly, that hostile Apaches are still out, and
that the capture of Geronimo did not end
the Apache war. Lieut.. Britton DAVIS,
recently of the United States army, and
son of the late Republican Governor OF
Texas, is now manager OF the Corralltos
ranch. State OF Chihuahua, one of the
largest in Mexico and containing millions
OF acres. Eight hostile Apaches raided
the ranch during mis- absence and drove
away twenty mules. He started in pur-
suit, and after following the thieves for
several days, under the impression that
they were "rustlers," came up with them,
only sixty miles from this city. in the
State OF Chihuahua. he was amazed TO
md that they were Apaches.
FIGHTING THE RED THIEVES.
sharp fight ensued in which many
shots were exchanged, but none of the
Lieutenants party were seriously hurt.
The Apaches had evidently been camp
ing for months only ninety miles from Ell
PasO. Lieut.. Davis mas had more expe-
rience in Indian lighting than almost any
man in The vicinity and he says that old
Mangus was the leader OF the braves.
Mangus has been for twenty years the
terror of the border. He is regarded as
tar ADLER tactIcIan than Geronimo. and is
imcued with oeeD hatred of the VIII ties,
his father, great chief, having been
wantonly murdered by white soldiers
twenty years ago.
Alter the fight the Indians fed. and
Lieut.. Davis pursued them TO within
twenty-five miles of Ell Paso. where be
abandoned the trail, which led in this d.
recton; not, however, until he had learn
ed that Mangus had been joined by the
three bucks of GerOnimo's party who
escaped from Fort Bowie.
Lieut.. Davis thinks the hOstiles are by
this time in New Mexico. and that they
intend to make raid through New
Mexico and Arizona and thence into

he'd in adjoining streets and addressed
by speakers.
When Mr.. George entered the hall the
entire audience rose and went wild with
enthusiastic cheers. When order was
restored the chairman OF tue meeting,
John McMackin, formally rendered Mr..
George the nomination for Mayor.
Mr.. George, after the enthusiasm had
subsided, formally accepted in speech
of considerable length. He said he would
make no pledges and ne would not ask in
dOrsement from any party but labor.

election would be the tercest contest ever

Everything that money and influence
could do would be used to defeat bin.
He SAID the city government should be
modelled after that Of the United States,

subordinates. If elected he would
discharge the duties Of Mayor faithfully
and give the city an honest and clear gov

Denial of a Sensational Story About
the Famous Chicago Lawyer.
CHICAGO, Oct. 2.-The report from st.
raul. MIMI, that the death of the late
Emory A. SLorrs, at Ottows, ILL.,, about
year ago, was caused by the administra-
ton of digitails through the agency of the
"Chicago gang" caused profound SEN
satIon in political and social circles here,
ana 10 subject OF general discussion.
Inc Democrats consider it a drawback,
wh'e many Republicans hold that in
view of the desperate character OF the
work In which Mackin was engaged 1t
would not be surprising if there was some
groundwork to the story.
Joseph Dixon, ex-Chief of Detectives,
who was very close to Storrs, says the
story is pure sensation. 1t was true
that Storrs had secrets, but they were
just as safe in his breast as in his coffin.
He Is certain that Storrs' death was due
to the weak condition of his constitution,
accelerated by indiscretion while in Of
taWa. Dixon says he advised Storrs not
to go there, and he at first decided not to
do so, but changed his mind. Dixon
added: "From what Mrs. Storrs told me
on her return from Ottawa, l firmly be-
lleve there is no truth in the story. Storrs'
death was. in fact, fatal to Mackin's case.
think there IS a seal on Mackin's lips,
and wnen that seal is broken, II he knows
anything, he will tell it alp
