LAID TO kEsT.

Globe put on the habiliments O
 mourning on Monday last, in sorrow
 for the untimely death of Glenn Rev.
 holds and w. A. Holmes, struck down
 by a ruthless enemy. The tragic
 manner of their taking off intensified
 the regret felt for their loss by every
 one in the community, as well as the
 enmity against their cruel assassins.
 Every place of business was closed,
 likewise the school, and work sus- pended, as far as was possible, by the Old Dominion Copper Company. The day was stormy, snow falling for sev- eral hours during the morning, dra- ping every object in shroud of ermine; drizzling ram began to fall about noon and continued fitfully un- til evening. The incement weather did not deter the people of Globe from manifestlng their sorrow and respect for the departed, and sympathy for the bereft, and as consequence the at tendance at the church was large.
 The funeral of Glenn Reynolds was conducted by White Mountain Lodge, No. 3, F. < A. M., and the members of the Globe Lodge. No. 6, I. o. o. F.. acted as an escort to the cemetery, and conducted short ceremony over the grave. The rites performed by the Masonic order were more extended and equally appropriate. MT. Reynolds was a respected member of both or ders.
 The service over the remains of Mir. Holmes was directed by the Masonic Lodge, at the request of his intimate friendS,-the rites being omitted as he was not a member-and the two men who fell together, in the performance of a perilous duty, were together lald to rest. The service at the church was conducted by Rev. \. F. Norton, whose were pertinent and left a favorable impression upon hls hearers. The music rendered by tie ladies and gentlemen comprising the choir. lent much to the impressiveness of the Floral offerings were land upon the caskets, fitting tributes to the worth of the deceased. They have passed into eternity; let us cherish | their memories.

Wednesday evening, an Indian scare of vast proportions, peryaded the heads of many people in Globe and caused their hearts to beat tattoo on resoundlng ribs, and, like Rachael weeping for her children, they refused to be comforted. Those hearts, so sorely tried, on the following morn ing sang for joy, because hope ob- tained victory over fear, by reason that the expected night attack dld not take place. However, in an Indian country, it is the part of prudence to trust in God and keep your powder dry" and be as covetous of your gun as the Texan who wanted his n just then and wanted It bad;" and thus be prepared 10 receive news of raid with smile on your lips and a tear Tn your eye.

Prompt Atilon of .,.c Military.

pEO1 thN ANNN'pV VI news of the disaster, B. G.. Fox tele- graphed the meagre information to Capt. l.. Johnson, commanding at San Carlos, who with commendable promptitude, notified every military post in Central and Southern Arizona as quickly as the electric current could carry the dire tidings. As re- suit, within very brief space time, detachments of troops, under experi- enced officers, were
 IN TEE SADDLE
 and hprrying Tn the direction Of Riv- erside, or to points where the fugitive Indians might possibly be intercepted. Lieutenants Wilder and Hardeman, with 30 men from Troop G, 4th Cav airy, and Lieut.. Watson with 20 scouts left San Carlos at 3 p. m., Saturday, and moved rapidly toward Riverside. A detachment from Fort Thomas was among the first Tn the field. Troops from Forts Grant, Lowell, Mcdowell, Apache, and Huacbuca were also quickly in the field.
 LleutenantS Watson, Wilder and Hardethan took up the trail near Gun ningham's ranch on the San Pedro, sunday, and followed it eight miles heyond Dudleyville, where
 THE INDIAN FUGITIyEs, HoTLY PRESSED, took to the rocks in the foothills ef the Saddle Mountains, and snow and rain Interfering, the trail was lost and the progress of the troops temporarily hindered. Lieut.. Watson and scouts are reported to have subsequently, tralled three of the Indian escapes to Kids camp, on the reservation. Kid and h-tan-tah are reported to have been seen, mounted, near the San Car los river, four miles from the Agency, on Sunday afternoon. Lient. Overton and troop, from Mcdowell, reached Plnal ranch on Monday, with the view of guarding the passes Tn that vicini- ty. The detachment came on to Globe on Wednesday,, for Instructions, and remained until Thursday morning when they departed in the direction of McMillen.
 After leaving the San Pedro the trails showed that the Indians had separated and up to the present writ ing they have not been located.
 CITIZENS IN PURSUIT.
 The combined posses from Globe and Florence were the first to take up the trail, and, starting on Sunday morning, where the fell deed was com mitted, they followed it through its various windings to within three miles of Dudleyville, where they were obliged to abandon the hunt, owing to rain winch obliterated the trail, and, exhausted, they dispersed. About a mile from where the tragedy occurred, a pair of blue pants and white drawers both with .s.
 BLOOD STAINS UPON THEM,
 were found, discarded by the Indians. and in a pocket of the pants, the key of the handcufS; papers, taken from the pockets of the officers, and torn up, were found along the trail, and about seven miles out, Holmes hat was picked up. A carcas of a steer was also discovered, a part of which had been taken and some of the hide stripped of and used for foot-covering, as evidenced by the peculiar tracks made by one of the fugitives after leaving the spot. After giving up the chase, Deputy Ryan and companions returned directly to Globe, arriving home Tuesday afternoon.

Joe Henry, Lou Scanland, Joe Brew ster and L. Ikenberry were in town from Richmond Basin this week and brought encouraging reports of the silver mlneS at that camp. Chloriders have nearly all been rewarded for their labor. The Letcher boys and Tom Moyle are now the most fortu- nate ones. They have been taking out ore for some timsi and are still getting it. They have already made two shipments of ore to Eastern re- duction works. Their clam is named the Harrison and Morton, and there may in this irstahee 6e something in name. Joe Brewster who owns the adjoining claim, the North Star, is hopeful of striking it rich, as the Letchers are working near the line and the trend of the ledge IS toward North Star ground. Mir. Brewster already has some ore where he is working, and is sanguine that little more development will open up good ore-body.

THE REVOLT.

The party began the ascent of the wash in the following order: First the coach, driven by Middleton, with Kid and another Indian on the inside, shackled but not together; short dis tance behind walked the Mexican, Jesus Avott; then Reynolds. and be- hind him the six prisoners, and Holmes in the rear. The distances between Reynolds and the prisoners immedl- ately behind him. and between Holmes, and those Tn front of hIm, when they started up the wash, has not been def initAly stated, but It IS presumed that the officers allowed what they con sidered a safe distance to intervene be- tween themselves and their treacher- ous prisoners; but as they proceeded, the Indians must have stealthily dim inished the space separating them, until within few feet of the officers, when those behind Reynolds grappled with him, and at the same time other prisoners turned suddenly upon Holmes and caught hlm before he had time to bring his Winchester into play.
 THE MEXICAN s ALARM AND FLIGHT.
 The above were the positions ot the officers and their prisoners, when the Mexican, hearing the scufle, turned, and seeing that the Indians had sur prised the officers, and being unarmed himself, he ran forward and shouted to Middleton flor Gods sake let me get Tn, the Indians will kill me. !"

VICTIMS OF APACHES. Sheriff Reynolds and ". 4. Holmes Murdered by
 Indian COnViGts. EUGENE MIDDLETON E0IKDEB. DETAILS OF THE TRAGIC
 AFFRAY.
EUGENE MIDDLETON WOUNDED.

This community was thrown into { state of great excitement and con sternatien last Saturday, about noon by the arrival of s. c. Saylor with the dreadful report that Sheriff Glenn Reynolds, of Gila county, and W. A. Holmes, who left Globe or the pre-. ! vious morning withf a Mexican and eight Indian cohvicts, whom they were conveying to Yuma for incar- ceration in the Territorial prison, had been overpowered and murdered, and Eugene Middleton badly wounded, by the Apache prisoners.
 The startling news was accepted as authentic, notwithstanding that it seemed incredible that such calami- ty could have befallen
 MEN OF KNOWN BRAVERY AND EXPERT as were Reynolds and Holmes. A posse composed of Deputy Sheriff Ryan, Arana, Roberts, Fowler, Paredes and Blevins, started almost immedi- ately for the scence of the tragedy, about four miles west of Riverside. Several versions of the killing. all diff fering somewhat in material points, were received. and it is doubtful if the exact and complete details of the dreadful affair will be known until the perpetrators of the crime are ap- prehended and have told their story. The account given by the Mexican prisoner. Jesus Avott, in connection with Eugene Mlddletons story, is sufficiently clear and full, however, to leave no doubt that Reynolds and Holmes were surprised and murdered by six of their Indian prisoners.
 STARTING ON THE FAITHFUL JOURNEY.
 The facts are about as follows: The party left Globe on the morning of Nov. ist. The Indian prisoners, eight in number, were placed in one large coach,> drawn by four horses. Eugene Middleton, driver, W. A. Holmes, de- putty sheriff. and 5esus Avott, she Mexican prisoner, were on the front seat, Sheriff Reynolds on horseback. All went well until Riverside was passed, where the party staid over night and resumed their journey On the morning of the 2nd before day light.

4 FATAL MISTAKE.

Upon reaching the foot of e long grade, heavy with sand, about four miles beyond Riverside, in order to tighten the coach, six Indians were taken out, and all the accounts re- ceived agree that they were shackled three abreast, the legs of each of the two in the middle were fastened to the inside leg of a prisoner on either side of him, and their hands were similarly secured, the outside prison CTS each having an arm and leg free.
 This statement, however, is posi- lively denied by Deputy Sheriff Ryan who says that Sheriff Reynolds had only three pair of shackles when the party left Globe, and when they reached the long wash where the re- volt occurred two pair of sharkles were put upon the legs of the two prisoners in the coach and the third palr were fastened upon one leg of the Mexican, thus leaving the six pris- oners on foot entirely without shack les, and they being simply hand culfed in palrS.

They even exam lned his wound and evidently conclud- ing that 1t was fatal, left him without inflcting additional injury. The Mex ican, horses and coach, in the mean tlme, had passed over the summit and out of sight The Indian Kid had jumped from the coach and ioined his confederates.
