taking the Apache eonvicts who mur- dcred Sheriff Reynolds and deputy w. A. Holmes, near Riverside, on the 2nd day of November, 1889. On Monday last news was received here thnt Indian secret service men hnd killed an Indian renegade and brought his head in to San Carlos, and had captured another, both belonging to Kids band Kid and his followers, who escaped from Sheriff Reynolds, were subsequently, joined by other renegades and the band has terrorized Southeastern Arizona ever since, and are charged with nearly all the acts of violence and devastation committed during the past eight months and half by Indians in Arizona and Sonora, Mexico.
 From time to time individual mem bcrs of the band have been killed by Government scouts, and one in an en- gsgement with Mexican troops in Sono- ra, Five of the original number (eightl nf convicis are believed to be dead four killed and one reported to have died. The Indian recently killed on the reservation by secret service scouts, and whose heud was brought ill to San Carlos, was identified as Pash-ten-tah, who according to Jesus Avott who was Il witness to the killing of Sheriff Key holds and Holmes, was the Indian who did all the shooting on that occasion.
 We are indebted to Col. Lewis John son, commanding officer Ht San Carlos, for the following account of the killing of Pash-ten-tah and capture of another renegade named Curley;
 SAN CARLOS, July g 1890.
 EpIToRs SILVER BELT On the 17th inst, three Indians, ill military em- ploy, who had discovered the usually travelled route of Kids band, met three of the outlaws, managed to become nc- quainted and to gain their confidence, and were allowed to accompany them to hiding place in the vicinity of Gila Peak aud Ash Greek, where the party proposed to stop for awhile. In the evening, just before dark, the Indian secret service men fell upon the Kid crowd killing pash-ten-tah and wound ing Say-es, it is thought, but he and Curley escaped in the darkness, Troops having been sent out to the scene under Lieut. Michie, 2nd Cnyal- ", to take up the trail, Curley, eyi- dently run down, gave himself mp and was brought in to San Carlos, together with the dead mans Winchester, Cur ley's earbinc and all three ponies. The hunt for Say-es, now afoot, continues, and chances are favorable to his being captured or killed ere long. Pash-ten- tah and Saves were in the gang of con yicts who killed Sheriff Reynolds last November. JOHNSON.
 Commanding.
 The hope expressed in the foregoing dispatch, of the early capture of Say-es, has been realized, as the following re- cciyed from Col Johnson, last pight, announces:
 SAN CARLOS, July p, 1895.
 Els. Say-cs, who was wound ed in the fight on the 17,h inst, was captured this forenoon by Indians of Antonio's band. in the employ of the Government, about twelve miles from here and brought in. He hnd Shcriff Reynolds rifle that carried by Holmes Sheriff Reynolds had shotgun when killed in his possession when captured, which he says Pash-ten-tah gave him. Say-cs captured, leaves only Kid md Tonto B, 60 at large, of the conyicts who participated in the murder of Reynolds and Holmes. l have re- ccivcd a report that Tonto B, 60 has also been killed, but cannot vorch for its correctness as vet.
 JOHNSON, Commanding.
 
 From another source we learn that Say-cs was wounded, in the fight on the 17th, in three places side, leg and arm, bnt eluded pursuit until yester- day when discovered and captured by Indians of Antonio's band The dis covery of Say-es' hiding place WAS re- ported to Col Johnson, who quietly had all avenues of escape guarded by troops. Saves was then caught by two powerful Indians who had simulated friendship and won his confidence, and when opportunity offered, overpowered him. Sny-es had rifle (the one car ried by Holmes) and plenty of am- munition. Saves was caught one-half mile east of Benton's camp
 This accomplished cut-throat, at the time of the killing of Reynolds and Holmes. was hendcuffed to Fl Calm (since killedD and these are the two who seized and held Reynolds while Pash-ten-tah shot him.
