\ General Decline Caused by thc Indian
 Outbreaks.
 Among ihe recent arrivals m this city was 4. Richley, whose observations dur ing Zen years residence in Arizona. particularly on She Indian question, are worthy of note. He has been employed as Superintendent of Construction of Government buildings at various forts. and for the past two years statIOnel at Fort Huachuca. Among his collections of novelties and trophies are photo. graphs of the various bands Of the Apache tribe, including all the promI- nent chiefs. NIT. Richley was seen at the Baldwin Hotel by a Chronicle re- porter, to whom be said:
 My principal reason for leaving Ari- zona was on account of the marked de- cline in its inning and other interests. In ssct. tho Territory at the present time presents little inducement for enterprise or capital. The frequent Indian out breaks, it IS said. have brought about this vast change. The raising of stock, which has successfully been carried on for years past, presents n doubtful Gs- pect this year owing to the dry season.
 "Ihe Indian question IS n difficult problem to solve, unless a different pol. icy is used than that m vogue. General Crook's method of Indian warfare, al- though very good m many respects, might be improved upon. The system Of using Indian scouts will never prove a success, as the redskins are naturally treacherous, cannot be depended upon and were never known L. fight. But few of those who have run on to trail of the hosti.es have been known to fol- low it couscientiously. BlOOdhOunds l thlnk. wou!d be wonderful improve meut over Indian scouts Tn following up a trail.
 "It has been stated thht hnl Captain Crawford had in h.s command force Of white instead of Indian scouts he would not have been killei. Be that as 1t may, it IS the general opinion in Arizona that the Mexicaus attacked CrawfOTd's force for the sole purPoseof robbery. NhI!r pretending Co be friendly to the United States forces. It Is a weli-kuOwn fact that the MexIcan- on the border are friendly toward the Apaches and pur- chase considerable plundsr from them.
 Another fault found with Crook, k that be does not give company com msnders the right to follow mp and at- tack the mnrauding Indians when a trail has been struck. As to the num- Der of Indians now on the wGrpsth, lt is not definitely known. Estimates ranging from teD to ninety have been made. The last l heard of the move ments oi the soldiers was that Crook was organizing three pack trains to start m pursuit, and Lieutenant Maus wBs at Fort Bowie awaiting orders. ."-S. F. Chronicle.

They at opce made propositions for peace, esch sIde concedlng readily to the terms, onlv one polnt beng Tn dispute. Crawfu-d de sired that they should come to his csmr without arms. Fms WAS not acceded to. and Crawford thereupon agreed that they might come with their arms.
 The Chihuahua troops then fell upon Crawfords command, when C-avford arose with his white hand CkercLief. nak. ing signs to them to stop firing. ana just as he arose ball struck him in the forehead. The others of those inmedI- ately with him then hId themselves in the rocks and were so taken prisoners. As soon as the Mexicans found out that they belonged to the U. $. force iu pur- sult Of the hostiles, they set them free. telling them to go to their camp and ID. form their associates that their captain was killed. They dId so, and Rs soon as the main body of U. 5. scouts learned of II, they were much alarmed by the death of their captain.
 The Mexican force, expecting trouble fortified themselves. .,and answered to the vigorous attack then made by the |. $. Apache scouts. This resulted in a seua- ration or the scouts, and what became O! Geronimo, l don't know, as they all returned to their camp demoralIzed.
