THE CORWIN'S ISOLATION.
It Give Color to tbe Belief That Willi
Orderad It.
Editor of The TribUKE:
Sir: Muny conjectures have been
published u to the reason for the ac
tion of the captain of the cutter Cor-
win, in so mysteriously remaining no
luted in San Francisco harbor, but I
have seon none which seems consistent
with tho facts which have been given
out.
When th Corwin arrived a lieuten-
uut was sent ashore with Willis' dis
patches iu cypher, to he telegraphed to
Washington, lie went directly to the
captain's homo and informed his wife
that her liUBhutid was well, but could
not laud until Thui-sdiay. Secretary
(iresham is reported to havo stated last
Monday that neither the president nor
any of the officials in Washington bad
given any orders to the Corwiu to thus
remain isolated, and they could not
Have delivered such orders before the
lieutonant was put oil with the cypher
dispatches.
1 he rational conclusion in harmony
with these facts is that as Willis' priu-
tpal st ill m lit was ("-ill in writing to
be sent by mail from San Francisco,
and that he knew it would require sev
eral days in transit, he gave directions
to the captain to r. main isolated until
sufficient time had elapsed to have his
mail reach Washington, so as to pre
vent erroneous or undesirable state
ments being obtuined from those on
board and telegraphed to Washington
ii advance ot his aomuiunications. It
seems to me that you would be justified
n editorially assuming such to be the
fact. Very renptctfully yours,
John TORBBT.
