The Greek count upon holding their own on
land by taking strong defensive position,
and hope to defeat the Turkish fl ct and
blocka e the Dardan,lles. In fact since tn ,
weakness of the fort there has become known
it is believed possible that the Greek fleet can
piss through the Dardane'les and threaten
Constantinople.

There is good reason to say that nothing
is being left undone in regard to the Cut
/ ting case, which can lead not only to the
amicable adjustment of our disturbed rela'
tons with Mexico because OF. it, but to
prevent future misunderstanding and fric'
I ton between the government of Washing
ton and that of our neighbOr in a SINH
lar matter. The first step in order tC
bring about these desirable results,
is the exact a"Scertainment of the
facts which have given Editor Cutting in
ternatiOnal impOrtance-his alleged Offense,
under what Mexican law or laws he was
arrested and punished, and the proceedings
of the courts before which he was taken.
Our Government at Washington cannot
negotiate fairly with Mexico without hay-
ing before it an impartial view of those
dealings of the Mexican authorities with
| Cutting out of which have come the diff.
Guilty, From acquaintance with these, the
way would be plain to a settlement OF that
difficulty, provided that both governments
are disposed to do right, which it is fair to
assume that they are. A revision of tx,
iSting arrangements between them, to pre-
NCll SllIllI III liC LANN oAAhAAeNA
conditions, would be the final step-per.
haps it is right to say will be the final step
OF Il Succession of steps, the first of which
has been taken in the appointment of Mr.,
Sedgwick to the work in which he is now
engaged.
He is well equipped for his mission, he,
ing a competent Spanish scholar, IN exact
and skilled writer of English, and a lawyer
who has made International Law subject
of his particular attention. Mr.. Sedgwick
has been an editorial writer on one OF the
leading New York newspapers, and is the
author of IL volume on international Copy,
right. lie is a gentlemanly and genial
man, who understands the, to the most OF
people, tedious fOrmality and circumlOcu,
ton of the Mexican administration of law.
Mr.. Sedgwick will undoubtedly bring
home with him the proper material upon
which to base successful negotiations. The
American people have the good sense and
prudence not to be impatient OF the slow
proceedings destined to form the tOunda-
ton on which will be built Il permanent
fabric of friendly relations between the
United States and Mexico.
