The Cane of Cutting Reported by Consul Brigham
Consul Brigham at Paso del Norte says there is no change in the Cutting case status. Cutting remains in prison while Chief Justice Rumor of Chihuahua keeps the matter under consideration. Senor Francisco Rumor is respected as a jurist and popular with Americans in Chihuahua. Governor Torraz of Sonora visited El Paso and noted less concern about Cutting in Mexico.
