THE HATCH CASE.
The Investigation In the Nenate Report oftbe
xtllnorltv I'oinuiiiiee.
The Telegraph on Saturday published the
majority report of the committee on the
Hatoh case, completely exonerating General
Babcock. The following portions of the re
port of the minority will also be read with
interest:
MINORITY EXPORT.
Senator Schurz, from the minority of the
committee, submitted a report in which they
express regret at being obliged to dissent
from the majority in every important point
of fact.
They submit from the testimony that Mr.
Hatch is a gentleman of the highest charac
ter. The diplomatio representative of the
Dominican Government, Mr, Fabens, admits
that Hatch's private character is without re
proach. Hatch was in Barajona while it was
in possession of the Cabral party, and when
Baez'a troops took possession he was arrested
and taken to San Domingo, then to Azua, a
province then under martial law, where he
was tried before a military court, a proceed
ing exceedingly barbarous in the circum
stances attending it. The testimony shows
that Hatch had in former years incurred the
displeasure of two powerful individuals on
the island. He had written articles for Ame
rican papers reflecting on Baez, who was at
that time, 18C8, in exii
CONCLUSIONS OF THE COMMITTEE.
First. Hatch, an American citizen of irre-
roachable character, was arrested by the
ominican authorities on a charge of having
aided a party of revolutionists. He was tried
by military commission and sentenced to
be bLot, but the record of the trial ehoivs Hid
whole proceeding was a barbarous farce.
Second, natch was pardoned on considera
tion that he would leave the country, by a
decree of the Dominican Senate, officially
published October 4, 18(59.
Third. Hatch was, in spite of that decree,
kept in prison until the middle of March,
1870.
Fourth. President Baez, and his Secretary
of State, Gautier, in an official note addressed
to the representatives of the United States,
stated, as the reason for Hatch's continued in
carceration, after a d scree of pardon, that it
was feared he would injure the annexation
scheme if set free.
Fifth. Commercial Agents of the United
States, Smith and Perry, used every means
in their power to procure the release of
Hatch.
Sixth. Babcock, sent to St. Domingo as
special agent of this Government, and having
authoiity to give directions to war vessels of
the United States in Dominican waters for
the protection of Baez's Government ngainst
foreign interference, not only declined to
ppeak a single word in favor of the release of
Hatch, but also discouraged others from
doing so.
The minority believe that, aside from
Hatch's pecuniary losses, he is, in considera
tion of the treatment toe received at the hands
of the Dominician Government, entitled to
liberal reparation. They cannot close their
report without declaring their most emphatic
dissent from the position taken, by the
majority, that the imprisonment of an Ameri
can citizen abroad, on the ground that ho
might exercise an injurious influence this or
that way with regard to a question of public
interest, can be justified or excused under
any circumstances.
They reject it as a doctrine utterly repug
nant to free institutions, and unprecedented
in the history of this Republic. They do
sire also to designate the insinuation con
tained in the majority report that this inves
tigation is instituted for the purpose of assail
ing the Executive branch of the Government
as uncalled for and frivolous. They would
be sorry to think that the Executive
could construe as an attack a fair investigation
into the conduct of its agents.
This report is signed by Senators Schurz
and Ferry.
THE C(hN A ELLS V I LL E RAILROAD.
The CoiiMtrnrtlon of Kriini-li ft :tlN- Contract
Alrrady Awarded threat Activity.
Great activity is now displayed in the region
of country to be developed by the Pittsburg
and Connellsville Railroad. A surprising
number of branch lines are not only pro
jected, but surveyed and contracted for, and
some of them will be finished almost as soon
as the main line is opened for travel.
Branches to Somerset, Salisbury, Bed
ford, the Uniontown Extension, and
Mount rieasant Branch are the most notable.
The Somerset branch, from Mineral Point,
distance about ten miles, was surveyed last
spring; the cost will be about $140,000, and
the contracts for building the same are
already made. The Mount Pleasant branch
leaves the line of the road a short distance
west of Connellsville, at Bradford, and in
light grades and easy 'curves it passes for
ten miles through one of the richest and
most beautiful regions in Pennsylvania.
Coal of the best quality, iron ore and lime
Btone abound everywhere. Talk about
the West! There are better opportunities for
profitable investment of money on the line of
the railroad between Connellsville, Confluence
and above than ever were offered by Duluth,
if the positive certainties of this region of
our State are taken into consideration. The
town of Confluence, thirty miles above Con
nellsville, has taken a fine start this spring,
and the railroad company has appropriated
fifty thousand dollars for the erection of
workshops at this place. An-eight foot vein
of gas coal has been opened between Indian
creek and the Falls.
