American consular agent imprisoned
at Puebla on charge that he con
nived with the bandits who kidnapped
and held him for ransom, has been re.

May Be Sent UItimatum.
The government, it is understood
desires to have M. e. Hanna of the

entire matter, making secret report
to the state department, which would
be checked up with the detailed report
the Mexicans will be asked to furnish
Meanwhile, it was suggested this

If the Mexican report does not agre>
