Blood-thirsty Apaclles.

CHICAGO, May IA special dispatch
from Iii Paso, Tex, says that w. J. Glenn,
who has just arrived there from the State OF
Sonora, Mexico, gives truthful account oil
the terrible atrocities of Geronimo and his
band CT Apaches;.in sonora and Southern
Arizona. He asserts that the Indians seem
encouraged and are more bIood-thirsty than
for several months, and Mozicans and their
families as well as the Americans are indis.
crimiuatcly butchered when found. Three
surveyors who recently went into the noun
.ains have disappeared and no trace Of them
can be found There is no doubt they were
butchered. Mr.. Glenn said that Northern
Sonora is terribly excited over the report
that body of Mexicans numbering fifty
men have been surrounded in the noun
tains, and are in danger of being massacred.

them paper in regard to the subject o.
dancing, also clause torbidding dances

ALEX CAMBRIA.
SATURDAY EVENING, MAY Is.

In ACCORDANCE with recent recommen-
dation from the Treasury it is probable that
at the current, as at several previous SEES.
sions of Congress, bill will be introduced
to consolidate the customs district OF tnis
city with that of Georgetown, and 70 maze
the headquarters of both at washington
Az there should be no special favors grant
ed nv the Government either to States
cities, or companies, or to any conceiVaole
class or interest, no sound opJectlon
can be made to the consolidation OF the dis-
tricts referred to; but as every vessel mat
poe, to or comes from Washington has to
mass within few hundred yards OF this
CITY az all vessels of heavy draught have to
stop here to tighten when bound up, or to
take on more freight when bound down, as
this is the natural port for the District Of
Columbia, and as there are too many feder'
al employees at Washington already, with
out increasing their number by the es'ao'
lishment of 8 customs house there, there Is
every reason why the headquarters should
be at this city. It is hoped the members OF
Congress from Virginia will bear this mat
ter in mind when the bill referred to shall
come up for consideration.
