THE BABcoCK-HATCH AFFA1K- 4
WASHINGTON June g.-T.he special San Domingo
Committee Of the Senate met this morning, and
read and examined ceytain documents submitted
from the Etate Department. These show that Mr.
Davis Hatch, from Connecticut, went to San
Domingo as the agent Of New York company. In
tesested IN working salt mine and building. He
obtained \ concession from the Spanish Govefn-
ment, which vas confirmed by Cabra when he
held the relns OF power. Daez subsequently got
control, and In August Of last year Ind Hatch
arrested and put In close confinement He VIII
tried BIZ court martial on chargea not yet
known to our government, and early
in October condemned to death. Baes,
On rccommendation Of his counsel commuted his
sentence to imprisonment, and finally prufessed
to grant him pardon. This IVES tn the latter part
OF October, but Hatch was not released till within
the LAST month. MI. somers Smith, ourSlAte Con-
Mercia1 Agent Ut San Domingo, IN wiring to the

hts Willingness to comply with my request he was
powerless to ACT IN Il: matter, as his Instructions
placed the ship nj the disposal Of General Bab-
cock. On ny communicating with General Bah

peaing not to regard the case IN as serious Light

character.
Ar. Sm1th thinks it bad for Hatch that General
Baococ1 Is ii close comrauonship with his
enemies and the sth Of October, In the last let
ter submitted, uses the following language:
"On the return Of the Tusca1ora: from Tortola
Captain Queen told me that there WIS no necesst-
II II tn5 taking any steps to assist Mr. Hatch. as
MI. B8bcock had carried to General Grant, IN
white and black, proof Of hls guilt l replied TO
statements, and should investigate the affair when
thr testimony was submitted. cannot but eI-
ian Americans n using their influence to place In
jeopardy the life Of q feiloE-countTymau. National
feeling alone would induce most men to stand By
him. and if they could not assist to e1trcate him
from, grave dilemma, to ut least abstain, both In
Word and decd, from participating With hls enc
mics or contributing In any way whatever to
prejudice his c1se."
GARF1ELDS CURRENCY ELL AGAIN.
Quite TO the surprise Of the House the Currency
bill killed last night put in new appearance this
morning. 1t appears that, during a recess taken
on account Of severe Storm that prevented buat-
ness in the House. General GARFIELD called together
such members OF the committee as were present,
and twenty minutes latef, at the close Of the re-
cess, under the regular call, introduced his mod-
tcd bill 1t consists Of the nrst, second, tenth,
anu eleventh sections Of the old bill, and provides
for the issue OF &95 600 additional OF National
Bank notes to associations In States
not having their proportion; that no
ueE bank shall hare more than
half million Of circulation; that the per cent
loan certificates shall be taken up and cancelled; !;
that coo Of circulation shah be withdrawn
from the East and redlst.ibuted to the South and
Vest, and finally, that banks may move from one
State to another. The Introduction OF this measure
created great runapus, half Of the Democratic
side rising IN protest, and limiting or charging
something Ike tricIerf on the part Of Garfield,
and asserting, with great vehemence, that they
would reaist itz passage BY every parliamentary
expedient. They began 1Nbnstertng At once, md
the bill wert over unulj next week. Tuesday, with
out action.
