GERONIMO REMOVED.
Changed to a Fort Where His Escap
 Will N0f hA EaaY.

Will Not be Easy.
 WASHINGTON, Sept. 9.-The President has telegraphed Adjutant General Drum. acting Secretary of War, vesting him with discre- tiona1y authority as to the present disposi- tion of Geronimo and his band. When the President returns he will decide on the per manent place of confinement for these h. dians. General Drum in pursuance of this discretion to day telegraphed General Miles, who is on the ground and more familiar with the surroundings than the adjutant general can be, transferring this discretionary au- thority to that officer. It is learned that General Miles will remove Geronimo and his bucks at once from Fort Bowie, which is near the mountains, to Fort Bliss in the open county. This precaution is taken for fear the wary chieftain might escape at Fort Bowie where his flight to the neighboring mountains would be easy, while should he elude his guards at Fort Bliss he could easily be captured in the open country. At the War department the idea of a civil trial for these Apaches is secuted. The Apaches who were not upon the warpath will be sent to Florida at once.

These artists have just concluded an extended engagement at the Boston Museum where they won both fame and fortune in their respective charac- ters. As Arrah Miss Claxton is said to give 8 fine interpretation, better one indeed than was to have been expected from one who had previously appeared as characters 50 entirely and distinctly different from that of the bright, vivacious, pretty and lovable Irish Colleen. Her assumption is said to form ! most fitting counterpart to the honest, manly one of Shaun given by MT. Stevenson The Boston verdict is recorded as being by far the most thoroughly artistic and satisfy ng performance these artists have given for reaTs. Ancient and Accepted Scottish Rite.

NINETEEN YEARS AGO.

Ex-MayOr Welch of This City Says He Was a Creditor and Loser and Not a Partner.
 NEW YORK, Sept. 9.-An attachment has been issued by Judge Andrews of the Su- preme court against the property in this State of President Welch of the First Ma tional bank of New Haven. The attach ment was procured under proceedings insti- tuted by William P. Chapman and Henry Chapman, of the broker firm of Chapman Brothers, against Arthur Robinson, Isaac G. Ogden and Hermanus M. Welch, composing the late broker firm of Robinson 6 Ogden, upon claim for S,7S3.79, which has been standing since March g, 1S67 MT. Welch has been a resident of New Haven for twenty years and was form erly Mayor there. The other parties are either dead or insolvent.
 In 1867 both firms were members of the Stock Exchange. Chapman 6 Co.,. at the request of Robinson & Ogden, purchased and sold on account of the latter firm at loss to the amount mentioned, which the latter firm failed to make good. Chapman & Go. claim that they gave credit on false repre- sentations and that the firm was we'll fur nished with capital The firm of Robinson & Ogden failed the very day the credit was given.
 It has just been found out, it is claimed, by Chapman 6 Co. that President Welch was general partner in the defunct firm, hence the delay in suing to recover. Chap man & Co. seek to recover the money lost with interest.

 A Serious Drought in Illinois.
 ToLooN, Ill.,, Sept. 9.-The drought in this locality is getting to be a serious matter Several weeks ago the wells began failing and now large part of them are dry Ev- cry stream and pond in the country about here, excepting only the Kaskaskia river on the west and the Embarrass on the east. is as dry as powder house. Along the courses of the two streams mentioned are quantities of dead fish which have remained to perish as the water has disappeared. Live stock, of coarse, comes in for great part of the suffering. Horses and cattle iu the country have to be driven long distances for drink. A few light showers have kept the grass in better condition than would be thought possible under the circumstances. The pas lures in the neighborhoods are badly burned out. The corn in most fields is parched up and bleached out until it has every ap- pearance of having encountered killing frost. The earth is full of deep cracks and the soil is baked until fall ploughing is al- most impossible. The engines for steam threshers are denied water at almost every place, and their work is partly hindered thereby. Twelve years ago similar drought here brought on epidemic of diphtheria, which carried away forty children in Tolono and as many more in the surrounding coun- try. For three months the ground has not been wet two inches deep by rain. Unless there is a eopious fall soon there will be ab- solutely no water to be had except from the few tuhnlar wells ahort the cnnntrn
