Arizona troubles overshadowed by settlers protectors stance
Governor Zolick of Arizona telegraphed the secretary of the interior to correct the misimpression that troops were sent to guard against attacks by the white element. He said troops were requested to protect settlers from violence by renegade Apaches and to safeguard Indians on the San Carlos reservation. Secretary Muldrow replied no troop concentration was ordered and affirmed the aim to protect all residents and uphold law.
