Word was received this morninr,
that a telegram had been received at
Fort Huachuca from Gen. Miles, tb
signal to Antelope Springs, the'.Swisa
helms, nnd Stein's'Peak, that the
hostile "Apaches were returning, to
Arizona, and ordering every water
riole carefully guarded, and ordering
couriers to notify the settlers. The
General from what he has learned,
believes that the hostiles are heading
for the Dragoons, where he thinks
they intend to make a stand. That
they have already reached the Sul
phur Spring valley will readily be be
lieved when we state that Mr. Davis, a
well known rancher, arrived in this
city last evening and stated that he
came across four dead beeves yester
'day, that had only .been killed a few
hours, and numerous Indian signs.
It would be well for cattlemen and
ranchers to keep a close lonkoutfor
hostiles during the next few days.

RAZED TO THE GROUND
-Two Thirds of .the Boss top

Ashes.
A UU Account of the prop
erty Destroyed, and who'
are the Losers.
A little more than a year ago a
courier arrived ii this city with tne
distressing news that Bisbee was in
ashes. The report could hardly be
believed, while at the same time it
was expected. . But with that in
domitable will of frontiers people the
town was soon rebuilt, in much better
shape- than before, and the whole
World-had begun to believe that Bis
bee with bee yajt resources was de
stined to become one of the chief
mining camps of Arizona, and when
the stage arrived iu this city last eve
ning with the intelligence that Bisbee
had agaiu been undergoing the fiery
ideal, many were the expresrions and
curses upon the heads of Rollins,
FickaB, and Joice cf al, who wete the
authors of the name Cochise being
bestowed upon this county, as the
idea is prevalent that its many num
erous miffortunes havo been caused
by a visitation from Providence in
uamining it after ouc of the most
bloodthirsty Indians that ever lived
iu the annals of history. Below
give the names of tho parties who
were burned out and their loses,
which were kindly furnished us by a
business man of this town who was
one of the sufferers of the Bisbee fire
Yesterday morning, at 6:15, the
sharp cry of "fire I fire!" rang through
the air. It was tho warning notes
that the town of Bisbco was visited
again by thut fierce t-lement of de
sliuclion.' When first discovered, the
flames burst through the roof of Mrs.
Christy's restaurant and lodging
house, and before the people could
realizo the danger, the fire gained
such headway that it was impossible
to think of saving the buildings.
From Mrs. Christy's the fire spread
with lightning-hke rapidity. Soon
Clark & Dunn's saloon, on the one
sido and the Lumber Yard on the
other, wcn ablaze. At this time somo
of the pcoplo wero in bed and had
barely time to escape with their lives.
One of the boarders at Mrs. Christy's
by the name of John Smith had the
hair burnt off his head and had to
jump from the balcony of the second
story to save his life.
'The south side of the street it is
laid in ashes from Sol Piorce's saloon
to the Copper Queen works ; on the
north side from McGuire's restaurant
to the Copper Quccu store. Fortun
ately for those from there up on
Main street the wind was steadily
blowing from the west, or the destroy
ing element would have wasto and
gone over the same ground it did at
the last fire.

Clark and HigginB, saloon bailding,
$1,200; Clark and Dunn, saloon,
$2,000; Mrs. Christy, building and all

It will be seen that the largest por
lion of he losers by this tire were
losers at the one bout a year ago,
and they will hardly he able to re
build again and resume business. Wi
expect to' receive a full account of all
losses and incidents that we have not
already published by this evening's
mail, and will publish tho same in our
next issue.

on the San Pedro below Charleston,
was a visitor to this city to-day.
WASEtEVGTOr E.ETTEE
Washington, Jnne 28, 188G.
3Ie. Editoe: The .latest feature of
Washington life is the adoption of the
tricycle by iadie3. The broad smooth
pavements of the city 'render travel
ing by bicycle or tricycle both a con
venience and a luxury. The use of
these machines has long been popular
for news gathering purposes, and a
number of "wheels" may be seen, at
any hour of the day or night, about
the doors of the various newspaper
offices. The telegraph companies were
early in recognizing the advantage1 of
the system from a business standpoint,
and furnished their messengers with
.bicycles. Tjie'fact that the appear
ance of a lady upon a trycicle would
be likely to attract notice, and cause
more or less comment, has until rec
ently prevented their general adop
tion bv the ludiea."'"A"mimber.j3f
trydcle"" clubs have, however, been
formed--among the. ladies during the
past few months, and during the
courso of a walk through the streets
upon a moonlight evening, one con
stantly meets these trycicle riders.
The popularity of the tricycle is in
fact increasing daily, and if one nicy
judge from the enthusiasm evinced
hy the ladiej who are members of" the
clubs, it is safe to piedict that the
"machine" will soon achieve an even
greater popularity among the ladies
than it has heretofore with the gentle-'
men. . . v , ,1
It is rumored that a large number
of dismissals are 'o 'bo made in the-l
various Executive Department upon
July 1st, tho .commencement .of the,
fiscal year. The Sixth Auditor has
announced the dismissal of twenty
six clerks from his office7if beiirg
stated that the dismissals were made
necessary by an expectation that the
appropriations were to be reduced.
An examination of the provisions of
the- legislative bill as it passed the
House, shows that the Sixth Auditor
it given all tho force asked for, and
that the total reduction necessary in
all grades docs not exceed six or
eight.
Tho President has been so bufily
engaged during tho week, considering
the great number of bills which await
his signature, that he has been obliged
to deny himself to callers, and tho
regular meeting of the Cabinet upon
Thursday .was postponed upon that
account. On Wednesday he sent fif
teen veto messages to Congress, and
on Thursday a batch of thirty-two
bills xtoTO returned to the House with
his reasons for disapproval. The ef
fects of overwork began to show
themselves before the close cf tho
week, and after continued urging by
his friends the President finally de
cided to accept an iuvitation, which
had been tendered to him by Eepre
sentative Scott, of Pennsylvania, to
join in a pleasant cruise down the
river. The party, consisting of the
President, Postmaster General Vilas,
Representative Scott, Mr. W. S. Bissel
and Lamont, left Washington on Fri
day afternoon upon Mr. Scott's steam
yacht for a short cruise down tho bay,
It having been learned at the Post
office Department that certain clerks
in the railway mail service had form
ed a conspiracy to prevent removals,
an order was issued on Thursday by
tho Postoffice Department summarily
dismissing twenty-six from the. ser
vice. The order states that the clerks
have been removed" "for insubordina
tion,, in conspiring- to obstruct the
.regulation of tho service of the De
partment. They have socratly at
tempted to form an association with a
view ts dictate action to the Depart
ment." The object of the
society was to resiai removals by
tbrafpnin? a strike, or the combined

There are nearly forty members of
the Chinese Legation in Washington,
and their summer robes of light blue
silk, present an attractive appearance
upon the streets. Although there are
but two or three members of ihi Lega
tion who understand a wort! of Eng
lish, they all evince a remarkable de
votion to our American entertain
ments, and the theater- seems to be
particularly attractive to them. The

Judge Benson is the only resident
of Toughnut street so far that is loyal
enough to display the American flag,
he having seven American flags fly

pect, however, that to-morrow morn

the public, flags on each and every
house from ono of that thoroughfare
to the other.
It is said that the reason that Pat
Holland accepted the honor thrrnt
upon h'fli by tho Yuma Indians, was
becauso the weather is so warm in
Yuma that he was unable as a pale
face, without becoming amenablo to
the law, to wear a Gee string, but hs
chief of the Yuma's all trouble oi the
law is averted. He will now dress in
tho ancient and scanty costume of
his tribe.
The Democrat came out with an
article headed to-day "Important if
True," wherein it was stated that an
important change was to take place
in the management of the Grand
Central mine and that Messrs. Gage
and Leach would retire. A reporter
of The Tombstone- interviewed Mr.
Leach and from that gentleman
nothing could be gleaned other than
that it was news to him as he knew
nothing about it. It is to hoped that
Messrs Gage and Leach will still con
tinue to hold their positions.
We received a pleasant call this
afternoon from our old friend Col.
Hafford. He looks just as natural as
ever, and by the time he reached our
office his arm was weary with hand
shakings, from his numerous friends
in this city. The Colonel will re
main in this city about a week or ten
uays and take a look at the general
outlook for the camp, He says that
notwithstanding the dullness of the
camp at present it presents superior
inducements to the capitalist or busi
ness man than any place he has
visited during his travels.
