GATEwOOD. THE REAL HERO

or the Apache War-GeronimO Wants to
Go to His Squaws in Florida.
San ANTONIO, Ten, September 13.-
The Apaches and Chiricahua captiyes, and
then chiefs Natchez and Geronimo, con-
tinue to absorb all attention. Visitors
were rigidly excluded from seeing them
yesterday. They spent the day in play
ing cards in their tents or smoking or sleep
ing on the sward. Geronimo says he
wants to 90 to Florida, where his three
suuaws are. He does not claim the squaws
here with him. Although people were de-
MED admission to the enclosure wherein
the Indians were confined, thousands
gathered about it and fought with each
other for places of advantage where they
could peep through the gratings of the
iron gates. Several copious showers fell
in the afternoon, but they did not drive
the crowds away, and they staid there un-
til it was so dark that no glimpse of the
sayages could be obtained. The crowds
have become 80 rude in their curiosity rs
to greatly annoy the officers and prisoners,
all of whom complain bitterly thereat.
GATEwOOD THE REAL HERO.
Captain Lawton will leave here for his
post in few days. He was engaged to-day
in making out his official report. The re-
port will doubtless be highly interesting

promulgated from headquarters i'll Wash
ington LawtOn has been heretofore ac-
credited with the capture of the Savages
He is modest, as well as brave. He would
not deprive the officer who made the cap
ture of his credit or receive the surrender
The man who is entitled to the honor is
Lieutenant Chas. Il. ,GatewoOd, of the
Sixth Cavalry. GatewOod sent out two of
his scouts to GerOnimO's camp in response
to the latter's signal with flag of truce,
and followed shortly afterward, and was
talking to Geronimo when LawtOn rode
up. GatewOOd delivered the Indians to

GOFF FIRST: THEN DOVENER,
And Everybody Is For Goff-The Weston
Convention To-Day.


Special Tslegrum 10 the Register.
GRAFTON, W. VA, September 13.-
About ten delegates from Marshall county,
three from Hancock, one from Brooke,
thirty-fve from Ohio, two from Tyler, and
one from Wetzel have just arrived at Graf
ton over the B. & o., bound for the Repub-
lican Convention at Weston tomorrow.
Some delegates went earlier in the day and
others are expected in the morning
Among Ohio's delegates are G.. B. Cald-
well, G. W. Atkinson, Captain Bags, Ed.
Dunaway, J. V. L. Rodgers, Peanut"
Scott, DIR. Edwards, Editor Hart, DR..
Pipes, Newt. Lynch and Melvin Dunlap.
The time in moving from Wheeling was
spent in a general discussion of the Con-
greSsiOnal situation, in having a regular
good time and getting ready to effectually
wrestle with the Prohibition resolution
that We understand will likely disturb
the harmony tomorrow. q. W.
Atkinson and Capt. Baggs go along to look
after such plank, if it is introduced.
Capt. Dovener has already gone to Weston
that he might be on the ground in time to
be slaughtered. Many OF the Ohio county
delegates are warm supporters Of Doyener
and were sporting badges bearing the
handsome profile of the Captain, but Others
when offered badges said: We will wait
till we see whether Golf is q candidate"
The delegates from Marshall, Hancock,
Brooke, Wetzel and Tyler are nearly unan-
imOuS in favor of nominating Gen. GOtf,
rs they say he is the only man who has
ghost of chance with BrannOn. 1t is un-
derStOOd from pretty reliable sources that
GOff will consent to try the race
again if he is nominated
and his friends ur.e him to accept.
Sane Republicans say that this will not be
treating Captain DOvener just right, and
that they feel sorry for him, but if GOit
says the word, Dovener will have TO 90,
and everything seems to indicate now that
Goff will be nominated and DOyener left.
Mr.. Hart HIS been chosen temporary chair
man of the convention.
