SAN Francisco, Sept. 6.-The following
was received from Division Headquarters
at the Preside: Whipple Barracks, Pres
colt, Sept. 4-To the Adjutant General of
the Division Of the Pacific, Preside, S. F.:
The following is from Biddle, for the in
formation of the Division Commander:
Companies B and G and Company G
scouts left the other side of the river at 8
p. M. yesterday, to go to Paymaster Tanks,
IL miles. Overton left the other side Of
the river between 8 and 9 o'clock this MORN
ing, with troops, to make a forced march
to overtake Perrino, when he will assume
command and press on to Apache. ! can
not hear of any hostiles between here and
Apache but Pedro's band, and if it is only
these, or twice Pedro's band, Overton can
whip them. There are struggling Indians
on the trail that would likely kill any
small parties travelling over it. I ordered
Overton to send no couriers or small
parties back except to save a command. 1
think a great many Indians in the fight
got frightened at what they did and have
started for the agency, and to avoid con-
sequences / have armed all the citizens
here at the Post. There are about so
available soldiers here. Expect scouts
from New Mexico here tonight, who are
on their way to be discharged. Troops
arrived at the agency at 6 o'clock this
evening. They are able to take care Of it.
Rafferty's company will be here to-mor-
row. When Tupper's and McLellan's
arrives, l will form q battalion and pro-
coed with them to Fort Apache. With
this force 1 will then, leaving Stacy's COM
pany here, be able, 1 think. to clean things
up. (Signed) BENJAMIN, A. A. G.
The following is from Tiffany: One Of
Santa's band came in from Cibicu and
says hat while the mountain Indians tried
to get some San Carlos and C~hiricuhuas
to join them, they refused, and are COM
ing into the agency. The Cibicu, or White
Mountain Indians who fought Col. Carr,
are very near the junction Of the White
and Black Rivers. They sent word by
this Santa Indian that they were not 60
ing out, but were going to stay where they
were, and if the soldiers wanted them, to
try and take them. 1t Is reported to me
that some Of Pedro's band Of White Noun
tains are down on Ash Greek. If so they
are probably watching the movements Of
the troops towards Apache, either to con-
vey news to the Indians there, or ambush
or attack In the rear. Lieut.. Glass and a
company of 80 men arrived this evening,
and I can. take care of this Agency with
them and what more I have. We had an
alarm this evening. which proved a false
one, but while out with the Indian scouts
I found some San Carlos Indians coming
in to defend the agency, and a whole band
Of Yumas and Navajoes came up for the
same purpose. I believe If the troops now
here are allowed to stay, and / get the
guns ordered to me with ammunition, ]
can stand of all hostiles that want to
come. ! say this 30 as not to embarrass
any point you may desire. Signed, Tif-
fanny, Agent.
