RENEGADE MASSlA SLAIN.
The Celebrated Apache Was Killed b
Indian Scouts.

The Celebrated Apache Was Killed by
Indian Scouts.
Denver, June 5.-General Wheaton
was notified today that Massia, the
renegade Apache chief, had been slain
in Southern Arizona by Indian scouts.
Massia killed three scouts before he
gave up the ghost.
The passing of Massia will be hailed
with delight by all the inhabitants of
Southern Arizona and New Mexico, for
he was a red-handed murderer, treach-
erous and powerful with the disorderly
element of the San Carlos redskins. He
was one of Geronimo's braves, and sue
ceeded to that old chiefs authority
among the renegades. His speciality
was attacking remote ranches, slaugh-
tering the white men and women, and
driving the cattle found over the Mexi-
can border.
He was captured with Geronimo in
1885 and started for Verona barracks,
Fla, when, by order Of the president,
the band was to be confined at st.
Louis. Massia escaped from the train
and he was never recaptured.
