WASHINGTON, Aug. 2.-There is no
longer any reasonable doubt but that the
government has fully decided to perma-
nently remove from Arizona those men,
bers Of the Chihuahua and Warm Spring
bands of Apaches now on
the San Carlos reservation. The
only question not yet decided
Is said to be where shall they be HputY
This question has received earnest and
thoughtful consideration, and there now
seems to be probability that they Will
be placed on the Fort Marion military
reservation at st. Augustine, Fla. The
smailness of this reservation Is, however,
regarded as serious fault, and some
other less Objectionable place may be
selected,

through the streets and bit twenty per

fearful apprehension lest they. too, may
be attacked by the disease.

Warren has been appointed commissioner

this morning an attempt was made to
blow up the Chinese wash house, corner

house was uninjured. About midnight

LIST regiment state militia, was assaulted

as he lay on the ground he was shot, the
bullet passing through his lung; the
wound will probably prove fatal. Col.
Phillips has been outspoken of the late
outrage against the Chinese, and the lead
ers of the mob have threatened his life.

Coroner jerks gave a verdict of death by

avoid what had happened. He had
taken precautions not only against the
admission of persons. but also
against any attempt at a rescue.
When the last death warrant
was received he had, without giving
the condemned any reason for the act,
removed everything from their cells. This
was done for fear that poison or some
other means Of taking their lives might
be secreted there, He also refused to
allow any liquors or other l~uxuries to be
sent them by persons outside. He said a
rigid investigation would be made as to
how the poison was conveyed to them.

Toronto's Railway War.

ToRoNro, Ont, March l2.-The street
railway war assumed a serious aspect to-
day. According to instructions of the
president of the company the running of
cars was left in the hands ofthe city com-
m~issioners. Late this morning a car
manned with a force of police left the
stables and started out over the Front
street route. A mob Immediately gath
cred and adopted obstructive tactics, and
before the car had proceeded very many
blocks, the street was completely blocked
by coal carts, express wagons, etc. The
police were powerless to attempt to get the
car through, and abandoned it. The car
was then turned toward the stables, where
the mob attacked it and completely
wrecked it. The driver and conductor
were seized by the rioters and severely
injured before they were rescued by the
police. Il squad of mounted police here
appeared upon the scene and charged the
mob, using their batous freely; several of
the mob were struck by stones, while a
policeman was knocked off his horse, but
was not seriously hurt. Two arrests were
made and in spite of the efforts that were
made to rescue them, the prisoners were
taken to the station. Soon after, another
car started; the police were reinforced and
strong detachments located along the road.
The mob repeatedly charged and attemp-
ted to disable the car, but the police sue
ceeded in getting the car through; batons
were again freely used, and with good
effect. The ringleaders were arrested. At
the present time but few cars are running
both on Yonge and Queen streets. Each
,ar is manned by half a dozen policemen.
The police magistrate has instructed the
chief of police to call out the militia if
necessary; but the chief thinks the force
be has at his command at present, is suf-
icient to enforce the law.
