How easy it would have been, at any

rebel armies. No DISCUSSES wo1ld there

the press would afford the needed pro-
lection. If a correspondent of the New

O'KeIly i'm Cuba.


We do not apprehend any immediate
or particular danger to the United States
or Spain from the situation of James j.
O'Kelly, the New York Her0lds cores
pondent, in Cuba O'Kelly may be
and we presume is-in some danger.
Whether the United States interferes or
not for his release, we do not fear that
any alarming complications will arise
between thetwo countries on his account.
We believe that there is no doubt that
OKelly is naturaliZed American citi-
zen, and that he has been arrested by
the Spanish authorities as a spy. He
may be tried as a spy and hung as a spy.
We do not know what the Spaniards
will do. 1t is equally difficult to antici-
pate what our own country would do
with man underline same circumstances.
During the war of the rebellion, neither
our own or the rebel authorities would
permit individuals to pass or repass the
lines on the plea that they were news
paper correspondents. If the fact that
person was a newspaper correspond
ent should be allowed to protect his
person from arrest, would it not, in eff
feet, open the lines of all armies to spies
What was O'Kellys object in visiting
Cuba, as claimed by his employers
Simply to obtain and publish to the
world correct view of the situation of
affairs In Cuba. We hardly think even
this is allowable under the rules of war.
He goes to the island, passes through the
hostile lines, enters the insurgent camp,
obtains information therein and publishes
it as he receives it. His views must be,
to greater or less extent, colored by
his surroundings. Naturally he iinbibes
the same opinions of the opposing force
as those entertained by the insurpent
forces. If he publishes these views. he
must influence, to certain extent, the
opinions of mankind and thus act iniur-
iously to the cause of Spain He must,
If his correspondence is worth anything,
give information that will be of advan-
tageltosthe one side or the other. We
know that important information, during
our war, was conveyed by means of APP
parently harmless letters and publica-
tions. But aside from this, man would
be a useless correspondent unless egave
information. He could not give infor-
nation unless it should benefit the one
party and injure the other. We do not
think this or any other government
would permit the free ingress aud egress
of newspaper correspondents through
their camps and over hostile lines. We

following letter to ex-senator Patterson
since the adiournment of Congress =
UNION PACiFIC RAILROAD COMPANY,
Presidents Office, New York,
March 10, 1878. }.
lion. d. " Patterson Dear Sir
Your letter of the 9th inst, requesting
me to state the substance OF the inter
views between the Hon. Cakes Ames
and myself, in which the subject matter
of your alleged interest in the Credit
Mobiler stock was referred to, is re-
ceiyed. It was sometime during the
late Senatorial canvass in New Hamp-
shire. but | do not remember the pre-
else date. Mr.. Ames called upon me in
New York and said to me that Mr. Il.
H Rollins, secretary and treasurer OF
this company, was a candidate against
YOU for the office of United States Sem
ator, and that he was doing you lnlus-
tice for the purpose, as | understood
him. of lettering his chances. Mr..
Ames' statement was that Mr.. Rollins
had charged you with being in the Cred
it Mobilier. | asked Mr.. Ames what
the fact was. Ames replied to me in
substance that the charge was without
foundation in truth. | will not attempt
to give Ames' language, but what he
said made clear impression upon my
mind that you had not been an owner
of Credit Mobilier stock. l said to him
-E'Why don't you say so then ?" he
replied that he had written or would
write letter contradicting the state
ment which Rollins had mode. Ames
requested me to use my influence with
Rollins to cease circulating the unjust
statements against you. AT all events, l
so understood the object. of his visit, for
| remember that 1 said to him that 1t
was doubtful if l ought to interfere,
and that it was, perhaps, asking too
much of Mr.. Rollins in days like these
| to forego any advantage which he might
| derive in the Senatorial canvass, even
| from an untrue statement as to your al
| legged association with the Credit Mobl-
/ lier. | had no other interview with
| Mr.. Ames in which your name was
! mentioned until after the commence
ment of the late session of Congress.
! Upon that occasion, somewhere about
/ Tie Isl VI JdHudIy 1dSI, Inluh, AIhoS
remarked that he had requested you to
address him letter stating your version
of the transaction between yourself and
him, which had become the subject of
criticism, and in respect of which dis
crepancies of statement had arisen be-
tween you. Mr.. Ames' object in sug-
costing the correspondence with you
was, as I supposed, that by cOmpari-
son of recollections you might reconcile
the discordant statements and arrive at
the truth. Upon both occasions l was
satisfied from Mr.. Ames' expressions
and manner that he had no feeling to-
ward you but those of entire kindness.
Yours respectfully,
