The Governor of Arizona to the Secretary of State .

[Telegram.—Extract.]

In compliance with the request conveyed to me through your telegram of to-day I have the honor to assure you that the State of Arizona readily assents to the transporting of Mexican Federal troops from Ciudad Juárez through United States territory to points in the State of Sonora where American lives and property, are being endangered by the operation of Mexican revolutionary bands.

Geo. W. P. Hunt.
