THE LATEST FROM THE FRONT


Ell PAso, TEX, Aug. l4.-Nothing of
interest has transpired to-day In the Cut
ting case, the status OF which remains
NJ, Nut the same. Cutting is still hopeful,
D., NJ, Nsposed to think that the great
*, Va, people have too much respect
ah 'HlS r. ~ for the principles of their
goveh Is ~ weigh the liberty and
rights OF ,P If Its humblest citizens
against dollAs and cents, and permit
him to languish in Mexican dungeon
for an act committed on American soil
and within jurisdiction OF the United
States only. The rumors of the approach
Of 1000 cavalry from the south to Paso
del Norte has been
TRACED TO BUTCHER
on the Mexican Central, who saws he saw
near place called Lagos, about 250
miles this side of the City of Mexico, a
body of cavalry. This would place the
troops about 1000 miles south from El
Psso. Although the Mexican federal
government claims that the principle of
states rights prevents it from delivering
Cutting up TO the American authorities.
yet it seems singular that the very troops
who are guarding HIM at Paso del Norte
should be government troops and not
state troops. There are about 800 of
these troops encamped at that place, and
200 at Gringo. They look very inslgnla.
cant, so far as he can Judge of their
soldierly qualities, Cutting seemed to
be peaceably inclined. The officer In.
structed the guard to admit anyone who
called that didn't look
LIKE A COWBOY.
They have holy horror of COWBOYS
Representative Lanham's speech asst
night did him honor, and the position he
took in the Cutting matter fully met the
views of the people here who favored
war. The feeling is strong but quiet,
and El Paso feels able to defend herself.
The war feeling is growing stronger every
day In Mexico, as Is attested by the ar.
rivals every day Of American residents
and tourists from Mexico. They begin
to feel unsafe, and knowing something of
the insecurity Of American interests In
Mexico, are taking time by the forelock
and coming home Mexican Justice
is MExp'AN JUSTICE,
and that is all the hame you can give 1t,
for 1t differs materially from that admin
istered in other countries. In the case
OF an American 1t is one thing, and an.
other with Mexican. Cutting, an
American, can laHguish in Mexican
dungeon because u an act committed Cd
American soil, which affected Mexican,
while the editor Of sthe Obseryador From
tiniza, Senior z. G.. Garcia, who was
arrested and charged with the same
thing, goes scot free. Some time ago this
Mexican editor made an attack upon an
other Mexican in his paper and when
called before the court at Paso del Norte
for trial entered the plea that the paper
was printed in Eel Paso and consequently
out OF
THE JURISDICTION OF THE COURT,
although the paper IS almost exclusively
circulated in Mexico discussion Of
the Cutting case to-day brought this fact
out, although it occurred some months
ago.
Mr.. T. b. Dickerson, the special CORE
spondent Of the New Orleans States, re-
ceived the following telegram from his
paper this morning, and it may be that is
the substance Of the hint given by
prominent official and wired you last
night;
NEW ORLEANS, La, Aug. lS.--To I. b Dick
erson, III Paso; special envoy leaves Wash
ington to- day bearing this governments uu-
matum that Cutting be released vii ingly or by
force. Signed, Il. ID. WHARTON,
City Editor States,
A gentleman who came down on the
Santa Fe train this afternoon states that
the operator at Las Cruces told him that
a telegram passed through his Office at
l 80 p. m. from Mr.. Bayard to the City
OF Mexico demanding the immediate
and unconditional surrender Of Mr.. Cut
ting. A wild rumor was circulated on
the streets tonight that
SIX THOUSAND TROOPS
were on their way to Paso del Norte and
that the advance guard had reached the
city. Dillgent inquiry, however, showed
the report to be false,
Mr.. Pete Crosby, travelling passenger
agent Of the Mexican Central railway,
reached the city to-day. He says, as
general thing the Mexicans affect to
treat the idea OF the United States inter-
fering with the Cutting case OF Of going
to war with Mexico over 1t with perfect
Americans down there, how
ever, think differently and among those
In the employ OF the railroad company
there is considerable anxiety as TO how
they will get out OF the country in case OF
war.
Geo. Moore, another party, was jailed
here this afternoon on charge
of stealing three horses at Camp Rice
few days ago.
