Quitting To BE released Soon.

Ell PAso Tex. Aug. 2L-By a special dis
patch to the FL Paso Times it is just learned
that yesterday the second chamber Of the Su-
preme Tribunal of Chihuahua took up the case
Of a. K. Cntting and, after reviewing the en-
tire evidence, argument began. This did not
last long. The attorneys had previously come
to an agreement that the two months imprison-
ment already suffered by Cutting be considered
q complete punishment of his crime. This
makes Ii certain beyond a doubt that the
sentence, which viii follow shortly, will con-
form to this agreement. The case
was heard with closed doors. The court
holds both Judge Castenada and Judge Scuba
exactly right in trying and sentencing Cutting,
but under the circumstances the court thinks he
has now, by two months confinement, suffered
enough, and they will order his release, to take
effect, probably, by Tuesday or Wednesday Of
next week. The 5000 fine is also to be RENTED
The court expressly reafirms ali that has been
said In favor of the right of Mexico to try an
offense committed in the United States; there
fore the status of the case, as an international
question, is not and will not be in the
1t will come up again directly on a question of
indemnity. Consul Brigham says he did not see
how the release of Cutting at this stage would
change anything but the personal comfort of
Mr.. Cutting. 1t was not so much a question of
the personal liberty of Cutting as the broad prin-
ciple at stake between the two governments and,
as he understood, the court had expressly af-
frmed the validity of the law which Secretary
Bayard has roughly said that the United States
could never permit to be enforced, and it was
likely that the point would como up again on a
question of indemnity, which, he thought, wonld
have to be paid

General Grans,s wabash Bonds.

New York Mail and Express
Mr.. John I. Terry. in whose hands the man
agement of the Morgan estate mainly rests, was
asked by reporter if any steps had been taken
to convert the fund from bonds into cash. He
said there had not, but that the representatives
of the Morgan estate were ready to hand over
the amount of the fund in exchange for the Wa
bash bonds at any moment. if they could obtain
from the courts authority to do so. He further
said that the guarantee given by Governor Nor
gan when the fund was invested in these bonds
covered not only the interest but the principal
1t covered the whole amount When asked
what the present value of the bonds Mr.. Jones
purchased at par would be, Mr. Terry said they
sold to-day at 90.
Despite Mr.. Terrys assurance that the repre-
sentatives of the Morgan estate were ready to
makesgood the whole fund, it is said that no
matter how willing they may be to do so it is a
well-known fact that they cannot do SO, as the
courts cannot grant them the necessary authori-
ty. Governor Morgan's guarantee of the pay
ment of the interest on the bonds may be looked
upon by SONS of those who represent his estate
as morally embracing guarantee to pay princi-
pal and interest, but the courts can look only at
the obligation nominated in the bond and will
give authority only for the satisfaction of such
obligation, and no more. None of the contribu-
tors at present say with certainty when an
other meeting will be held to definitely settle the
question that has caused so much discussion.

Two Hundred Lives Lost.

LONDON, Aug. PA dispatch from St Peters
burg says that q passenger steamer plying on
the river Volga at Saratov, capital of the
province OF Saratov. in Russia was burned to-
day, and two hundred lives were lost. The
steamer was the Vera, belonging to the Samolet
company, and bound from Astrachan up the
river. The fire was caused by the fall of hang
ing lamp in the saloon. The woodwork was
ignited, and all efforts to extinguish the flames
were unavailing. The passengers, all of whom
were in-bed at the time the fire broke
out, rushed to the deck as soon as the
alarm was given, and many of them, panic
stricken, sprung overheard. The captain or
dered the vessel to be run ashore. This was
done, but while the boats end became Embedded
in the bank, the stern remained in deep water,
and the passengers were obliged to swim ashore.
Many persons lost their lives by being struck by
tables and chairs which we're thrown from the
vessel to aid the struggling swimmers in the
water Owing to a failure to stop the engines,
the water was ehurned up by the vessels wheels.
rendering more difficult the task of the rescuers
who put out from the shore to save the drown
ing passengers.
