The Surprise Of <icroninno's Camp.

OFFICIAL REPORT FROM GEN. MILES.
Adjutant General Drum to-day received the
following telegram from Gen. Miles, dated July
22d: capt. Lawton reports through Col.
Royal, commanding at Fort Huachuca, that
his command surprised Geronimo's camp on
Tonge river, about l3O miles south and east
OF Campos Sonora or nearly 300 miles south
of Mexican boundary, capturing all the In
dian property, including hundreds of pounds
of dried meat and nineteen riding animals.
This Is the nth time within thiee months in
which the Indians have been surprised by the
troops. While their results have not been de-
cisive, yet II has given encouragement to the
troops and has reduced the number ana
strength OF the Indians, and has given them a
feeling OF insecurity even in the remote and
almost inaccessible mountains OF old Mexico"
