Blaine and the Cutting Case.

In view Of the fact that Congress took
no action on the resolutions proposed by
the Committee ON Foreign Affairs in
the Cutting case, 1t is probable that
Mexico will take her own time in COM
plying with the demands of the Secre-
tary of State for Cuttings release.
There is not much reason to doubt,
however, that Cutting will be released.
Mr.. Bayard, of course, will renew his de-
mand in more peremptOry form, aud
then the Mexican authorities will begin
to think about complying with it.
The story that Mr.. Blaine induced Rep
resentative Hit, Of the Foreign Affairs
Committee, to take a position in the
House different from that which he took
in the committee may or may not have
some foundation. No doubt Mr.. Blaine is
capable OF advising any course calculated
to embarrass the admin Istration If by that
means he could gain party advantage,
even at the sacrifice of national dignity,
but 1t is not absolutely certain that he has
meddled with the Cutting case.
1t is probable that Congress hesitated
about adopting the resolution reported
from the Foreign Affairs Committee be-
cause Mexico has shown a spirit of con-
ciliation in the matter and because of the
doubt whether Cutting isn't in a meas
ure amenable to the laws of Mexico. The
offense for which he is held was not COM
mitted wholly in Texas. The libel was
published in Texas, it is true, but Cutting
took the trouble to carry the papers con-
tanning the libel into Mexico, and circu.
lated them there himself While this
country cannot permit Mexico to punish
American citizens for odenses committed
in this country, different question is
presented If it be proven that he went
into Mexican territory and assisted per-
sonally in distributing publication That
Is a violation OF Mexican laws. 1t is
noticeable that Cutting hasn't the sympa-
thy Of the better class of people Of Ell Paso.
