Six companies of soldiers had arrived in Wyoming on September 9, 1885, one week after the massacre.

Four of the six companies had then escorted the Chinese back to Rock Springs.

Once back in Rock Springs, the Chinese laborers find scorched tracts of land where their homes once stood.

The mining company had buried only a few dead; others remain lying in the open, mangled, decomposing, and partially eaten by dogs, hogs, or other animals.

The situation in Rock Springs had been stabilized as early as September 15, when Warren had first requested the removal of federal troops, but the mines at Rock Springs remain closed for a time.

On September 30, 1885, white miners, mostly Finnish immigrants who are members of the Knights of Labor, walk out of mines in Carbon County, Wyoming, in protest of the company's continued use of Chinese miners.

In Rock Springs, the white miners are not back at work in late September, because the company still uses Chinese labor.
