THE situation in the disturbed sections OF
the country up to the morning Of the
9th NAV b described as, on the
whole, encouraging. The terrible
events in Chicago and
especially the former, have had a tenden-
CIV to foster a spirit OF cancellation ON tno
part OF employers and employees, mutual
concessions follow, and work is gradually
being resumed, and to a large extent with
= shortening OF the hours Of labor. Some
on both sides remain obdurate, but IL
seemed to be the prevailing opinion that .

the more serious difficulties.

CONCERNING CUTTING.
Bayard's PeremptOry Demand for His Re.
lease Has Not Been Withdrawn.

lchSc HAS NOU Dceh WlUnuFdWns
CHICAGO, Aug 12.-The Times Washing
ton spet ial says: AS the result Of a con-
versation last night with the Secretary of
State it may be stated that there is abso-
lutely no truth in the story sent out from
the City of Mexico that our Government
has withdrawn its peremptory demand for
Cutting or changed it's attitude
in this case in any way. There is no dis
position to hurry or annoy or embarrass
the Mexican Government or it's courts, and
the claim which it's Minister here makes
that it has right to punish all American
citizens for an offense committed in the
United States will never be admitted tao.
lily or otherwise. The Mexican officials
have not charged Cutting with circulating
libel in Mexico; they have charged him
with uttering libel in the United States.
This is shown not only by the form of the
charges, but by the fact that the Texas law
has been taken into the Mexican court and
translated by way of showing that the act
of Cutting was an offense in the jurisdic-
ton where it was committed. The case
cited by Mexican authorities of Mexican
who committed an offense in the United
States and was punished for it by Mexico
is not case in point, because our Govern
ment can not concern itself about what
Mexico does with her own citizens. Neither
are the libel suits in France and England
against the owner of the New York paper
cases in point, for they were civil suits,
and they were based on the circulation of
the alleged libel in the countries where the
suits were brought, an allegation not made
in this case Mexico has distinctly claimed
right to punish citizen of the United
States for an offense committed in the
United States by criminal prosecution,
and our Government will not assent to this
in any form.

General Seduwlck off to Mexico.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 15-It can now be
authoritatively stated that Mr.. Sedgwick,
of New York, goes to Paso del Norte and
Chihuahua by request of Secretary Bayard
and in connection with the Cutting case.
His mission is in no sense of diplomatic
nature, but is simply to secure for the De-
partment of State fuller information with
regard to the case. The instructions to
General Sedgwick are to take positive
stand in defense of Cuttings posi-
ton. The envoy will 60 by rail via
New Orleans, thence over the Southern
Pacific to Ell Paso, where he will take tho
Mexican Central into the City of Mexico.
By leaving New York this evening he
should, if not interrupted in travel, reach
his destination on next Friday at noon. 1t
need not necessarily consume more than a
week to conclude the consultation, but as
the Mexicans are slow-going people, it is
not supposed it will be completed short Of
twenty days.

POINTS TOWARD PEACE.
A Special Envoy to be Sent to the
City of Mexico at Mexi-
co.'s Request.
Probability That Both Governments win
Mass Troops Upon the Border to
Preserve Order During
the Consultation.

NEW YORK, Aug. ia World special
from Washington says that in yesterdays
consideration by the Cabinet of the Cut
ting case, the most important matter dis
cussed was proposition received We'd
nesday evening from the Mexican govern.
ment. The Mexican authorities make the
proposition that If the State Department
will send to the City of Mexico an able
lawyer, as special envoy of this govern
ment to confer with the Attorney General
of Mexico, as to the proper Interpretation
of the law under which Cutting is held,
they believe an amicable solution of the
problem can be arrived at. After two
hours discussion on this subject by the
Cabinet, it was unanimously agreed that
the proposition from the Mexican govern
ment be accepted, and representative
sent to the City of Mexico as soon as posi-
BILE. This government is not to be bound
by the report that the representative may
make, but upon this report there can be es-
tablished additional foundation for further
diplomatic procedure. Pending this agree
ment neither government will take any
action. 1t is not improbable that both gov
ernments will mass troops upon the border
for the purpose of preserving order during
the period employed in the consultation.
The special envoy will not be person who
is in any way connected with the service
or the government.

whacking From House-TOps.


BELFAST, Aug 15.-Rioting has been re-
sumed in Belfast From midnight last

pert marksmen this morning conducted a
rifle fight from roof-tops, chimney
stacks and street corners. Immense
crowds of partisans, who carefully
kept out of range, were prepared to assist
by supplying ammunition and removing
the wounded. The sides were equally di-
vided. The moon shone brightly through
the contest. The Orangemen admit that
one of their men, named Macfarlane, was
killed, and that two others, named Smith
ed; also, that there were numerous
minor casualties on their side.
While minor casualties in the Orange ranks
were quite numerous, they claim, however,
that they killed and wounned large num-
Der of Catholics; but the latter deny that
any of their number were killed and ad-
init that few were wounded, The houses
in the vicinity of the battle ground
are riddled with bullets. The
stop the firing but whenever they appeared
the combatants shifted their positions, and
it was finally five o'clock in the morning,
and after the riot act had been read twice,
that the soldiers, by succession of charges,
were enable to clear the streets, and this
they did only temporarily. The town has
been in a turmoil all day, and the police
were several times attacked and fired upon
by the mob
AUGUST 16.--At two o'clock this morning
the town is quiet. Desultory fighting was
maintained throughout the day and until
