An Indian Kills His Wife and Child
While in JAN.
Tucson "A. IT,, January 21st.-Advices
from San Carlos say that last Thursday an
Apache buck got on drunk and was put
in the guard-house. After he sobered up
he begged TO have his wife and child
brought, which was granted. Sometime
thereafter screams were heard inside of
the guard house, which was found to be
filled with smoke. The Indian came to
the door with big knife in his hand COW
cred with fresh blood, and yelled out that
he wanted to kill one white man and one
Indian scout and then he was prepared to
die. Several efforts were made to get into
the guard-house, but the Apache fiend with
knife in hand defed entrance Finally
the smoke drove him out, and with a
knife in one hand and a club in the other,
he dashed at the Sergeant of the guard, but
before he could accomplish his object he
was pierced by dozen bullets and fell
dead. On entering the guard-house it was
discovered that he had cut the throats of
his wife and child from ear to ear, placed
them on the bed and set it on fire. No
cause is assigned for his murderous con-
duct. The three were inferred in one
grave.

settled Condition.
BERLIN, January 22d.-Since the official
organ of Germany, the Miiitder Wochen6latt,
gave its luminous comparisons OF the
strength of the frontier forces of Germany
and Russia, the discussion of the situation
has elected nothing more definite than
semi-otficial statement in several papers to-
day, that despite the arrival of additional
Russian troops on the frontier, the German
Government, for the present, will not order
a acounter-movement necessary to equalize
the strength of the two forces. This is one
of several indications that the Government
believes war has been delayed.
The Moscow Gazette Friday indicated
pacific policy of Russia. 1t declares that
peace was assured unless Russia should be
provoked by the aggressive acts of her
neighbors.
The Sret disputes the WocheaJlags
figures, and tries to prove that Germany can
concentrate million of men on the frontier
of Poland whiting ten days, while Russia's
huge areas of territory and imperfect means
OF transportation render difficult the work
of mobilization.
The postponement of the rupture is not
in accordance with the strategy of the Ber-
lin War Office, nor with the wishes of the
Viennese, but continues due to the irreso-
luton OF the Austrian Government. AL
though convinced that war is inevitable,
and that it would be preferable for Austria
sooner than later, Count Kalnoky persists
in waiting Russia time.
The truth of the position, however. is
that Prince Bismarck has already fully i'm
pressed Count Kalnoky with the fact that
German initiative to war is impossible,
leaving the Austrian Government free to
open hostilities when it deems the time
rIDe.

The committee also authorized favorable report on MT Matson's bill to provide that the pension money of any pensioner who is in the habit of becoming intoxicated and who neglects to support those lawfully depend ent on him shall be paid to the wife of such pensioner, if she be proper person to receive it, or to legally constituted guardian.
