1t is well known that the first dash
made into New Mexico by Vargas, in the
fall of 1862, was remarkable success.
| With very small force 200 mem he oc-
cupied Santa Fe without resistance, and
visited every pueblo of New Mexico and
Arizona, being everywhere well re-
ceived, and the inhabitants submitting
without apparent reluctance to the re-
establishment OF Spanish rue. Yet the
sequel proved that only the Indians of
Pecos, and two villages Of the QUERIES,
had sincerely returned to allegiance, that
| the others, surprised by the rapid and
bold movements of the Spanish leader,
awaited his return for a display of their
real sentiments. But Vargas came back
to New Mexico in 1893, with much
larger contingent. He discovered the
plans laid for his destruction, and thwarted
them by series of able movements. Too
lenient toward the Indians in many re-
spects, he still was extremely active and

Vargas trusted the Pueblo Indians too
much. While he felt confident of their
loyalty they were preparing another
revolt. As early as the winter of 1895
the priest of San Ildefonso gave notice
I .h"o in1 pai'oilioio!n "ete plot''ps AMONG
lagos. Vargas paid no attention to it.
Warning upon warning, all of which
came from the priests, were disregarded
by him. On the 4th of June, 1896, the
Tehuas, Tanos, Jemez, Acomas, Taos,
Picuries and part of the Rio Grande
queries broke out killing five ecclesiastlcs
and over twenty-five Spaniards. Then
they abandoned their homes and fled to
the mountains. With customary alacrity
Vargas took the field. BY November
the rebellious tribes were subdued again,
and peace restored. This war of short
duration has to record three principal
engagements: One lin June> in the
Santa Clara canon, against the Tehuas
and Tanos; one July 800 in the Jemey
canon, against the Jemez, Acomas and
