KOLE Hl'ItVIVOR'S KTOKYi
The Alleged Trini of u MRU Who
Enrupetl From I ho Apache.
Th San Francisco ('nil of the 1st.
contains an interview with a man giv
ing the name of Ambroisu Samprax,
w ho claims to be a prospector who lias
just reached 'Frisco from Mexico. He
states that lie was in the party of Mexi
can Central engineers who were mas
sacred just below Paso del Norte on
July 1st. or 2d. The morning of the
light he was behind the party wailing
for a Mexican boy who had lagged from
camp, and had gone three miles from
the camping-place when he heard the
Apache war-whoop.
"I knew at once," said he, "we were
in for it, foiI have been on the frontier
ten or fifteen years, and had many a
brush with the red devils. I was prob
ably a half mile behind the rest of the
boys when the light began and was cut,
oil before I. coidd reach them. I be
lieve, if 1 could have been with them
things would have gone differently, for
they were well armed and all brave fel
lows, but had no leader, and understood
nothing about Indian fighting. In
making the effort to get to my friends
1 was captured, and would have been
killed, but my Mexican boy put in an
appearance and told the Indians 1 was
wealthy anil would be rescued by
irieims. i was men uouiiii Hand and
foot, and left where I could see the light
going on. The surveyors fought like
bloodhounds, but without system. I
don't think it lasted oyer ten
minutes. There were forty-live or forty
six Indians. Six were killed and nine
. wounded, as nearly as could be judged.
1 After all the whites were killed the In
dians plundered the baggage. I have
' had a great deal to do with Indians, but
never saw them under better discipline
or so well armed as this band was. It
made the blood run cold to see the
heartless wretches butcher the wounded
after the light was over. I think there
was live or six of the survivors who
were not fatally wounded, but the dev
ils seemed to take delight in killing
them. I was strapped to a mustang
and started to the mountains. The In
dians then moved towards the moun
tains to the old camp. Here they left
the wounded in charge of a few oi their
number and moved west about ten
miles to another camj), where they staid
a week. I was well treated, but close
ly guarded. After committing a num
ber of murders and robberies, they
moved down the coast to within about
seventy miles of (Juaymas, anil crossed
to an island in the (ulf, I think it is An
gel island. The passage was made
during a dark night, and in the excite
ment I made my escape, tramped it
down to (uayinas, undergoing many
hardships and living on sliell-lish anil
almost perishing, for water. Several
times the weather was so hot that I had
to travel at night and lay over during
the day. I was live days and nights
making the trip. I stayed in (iuavnias
two days, and crossed "the gulf 'in a
schooner to Lower California, where I
got in with a parly of prospectors,' and
made my way up to San Diego. Í am
now on my way to Washington. That
the Indians were a portion of Victorio's
band is true, but that they were com
manded by one of his men is a mistake.
They were under that villain Victorio.
I had seen him a number of times in
Hew Mexico, and knew him at once. I
know it was reported he had been
killed", but we who are acquainted with
Hie Apache-Mexican fighting did not
believe it. Victorio is alive, and under
stands the lay of the country too well to
I . A .11 11 , ,
oe capiureu oy soldiers.
It is difficult to determine whether to
treat this story seriously, or to pass it
over as the yarn of one of that class
who are continually thrusting them
selves forward into notoriety, by the re
lation of remarkable escapes. (Jen.
Zuloaga's party from Chihuahua that
came through to Paso del Norte by pri
vate coach, and who frightened off the
Indians by making a big show of
strength, passed the Mexican Central
It' y party the day before the massacre.
They all claimed that there were six
men in the party, although Mr. Upham,
the Resident Kngiueer of the railway,
could account for but live, and the
impression was that the General's par
ty was mistaken. It is probable that
Simprax or some other man joined the
party on the road from the engineer
camp, and this story may be in part
correct. His positive statement that
old Victorio commanded the Apaches
is wide of the truth. Only a few weeks
ago the Gazettk published the true
account of the death of the old renegade
chief, and the truth of our story is
vouched for by (Jen. Juan Zuloaga, a
man well known throughout Chihua
hua. His information was derived
from some of his peones at his San An
dreas ranche, who made up the larger
portion of the volunteer force that
routed Victorio's force at Tres Castillos
last fall. Simprax evidently mistook
Nane, Victorio's successor, for the old
chief himself. Nane is deserving of all
the compliments showered upon him
by this sole survivor.
PROHIBITION.
On Thursday the poople of North Car
olina voted on a prohibitory amend
ment to the State Constitution. It is
announced that the result of the voting
was an overwhelming majority against
its aeceptanee. The following is a re
sume of the bill:
4 "It prohibits the manufacture of spir
ituous or malt liquors, except wines or
cider, in the State. It prohibits the
sale of these liquors by any except the
regular druggists who may be licensed
under this act, and by them except on
a certificate from a respectable pnysi
cian, mechanic or artist, stating that
the liquor is necessary for medical, me
chanical or chemical purposes. No
greater quantity than one gallon can be
sold to any person at one time. No
druggist is allowed to keen more than
thirty gallons on hand. No physician
licensed under this act as a druggist
can give the required certificate. Vio
lation of these provisions is punishable
by fines varying from $100 to $l,000and
imprisonment, in the discretion of the
court.
Murdered Ity tniadnt.
From our own Cut-respondent.
, Paso del Norte, Mexico, July 24. It
appears that the body of the unknown
American found near the Ventanas
Mts. lately, was that of a miner, name
unknown, who was on his way to this
city from some of the mines near Car
risal. He was probably one of the first
victims of the Apaches in their late
raid but his body was not discovered
sooner because it lay about a quarter of
a mile off the road. Mr. White's min
ing outfit turning off the road to camp
noticed the buzzards congregated and
discovered the remains so horribly mu
tilated by wolves as to be unrecogniza
ble. One more unknown srave. one
en
more nameless vict im of Indian cruelty.
The two men some time ago reported
as lying dead in Ouitman Canvon.
Texas, were named Melvin and Smith.
1'hey were killed by a party of white
outlaws who stole their stock, money
mil arms, and left their victims on the
road where they fell. The stage driver
passing along soon afterwards reported
the fact and soldiers were sent out to
bury them.
The murderers took dinner at Me-
Kern's grading camp the day after the
killing, and supper at Stout's camp.
They acted as if they feared pursuit,
for one mounted guard with cocked
Winchester while the others ate their
meals. The party separated soon after
leaving Stout's camp into squads of two
and three, but it is believed they all
came on to El Paso.
The report of an attack by Indians on
Stout's grading camp is incorrect, al
though Indians have lately been seen in
the neighborhood.
The letter of our correspondent, al
though long delayed by washouts, eon
tains items of interest not yet pub
lished, and we therefore give it space.
