OPINIONS OF SENATOR KELLY, OF
OREGON.

WASHINGTON Nov. 20, 1873
Senator Kelly, OF oregon, on being asked II he
thought the Cuban trouble would cause war, re-
piied-''That viii depend upon the determination
OF the administration in the matter. II the Presi-
dent and his Cabinet are determined to push the
AFFAIR to the extreme OF hostilities undoubtedly the
republican members OF Congress would take &C.
tion.n He did not feel authorized 10 speak for the
democratic party on the subject. He could only
answer Tor his own views, but he had but little
doubt that his party would sustain and strengthen
the general government in any measure in which
the national honor and the sanctity OF the nag
were involved. 1t looked, however, as though
some means would be arrived at oy which hostili-
Lies would be averted.
From the last advices IL would seem as though
the Spanish government would do what IL could TO
make reparation; but the question is, "Could the
DEGREES OF the home authorities be enforced in
Cuba, and II they could not what was the proper
course for the United states to pursue ~ AS for
leaving the question to arbitration, as was the
Alabama case, that was hardly to be thought or
It not parallel state OF affairs If the vir-
ginius had been fitted armed vessel in port
Of the United States and then, claiming to act in
the capacity ofa Cuban man -oiwar, had captured
and destroyed Spanish vessels, or burned and pill
laged towns along the Spanish coast, there would
be o similarity IN tine two cases; but this unarmed
vessel was carrying the American flag and cap
tured on the hign seas. IL is true she may have
been engaged In illegal trafic but II was doubtful
whether she was liable to seizure except within
the Jurisdiction Of spanish sovereignty. The
vessel was liable only 90 confscation after
TRIAL by the proper Court and
those on board had the unquestionaolc right OF
trial for their acts, whatever they might have
been, and to have them proved before a tribunal
In which they could confront the witnesses
against them and be defer ded by counsel what has
made such bitter feeling throughout the country
~ the shocking haste and savage cruelty OF the
executions. II the vessel was properly captured
and the prisoners on board had engaged in any
enterprise which by the laws or nations rendered
them liable TO the penalty OF death, and they had
been condemned after fair and Impair
tial trial, the United States could have
had no justinabe cause OF complaint All the
rights OF humanity and International law have
been outraged In the trial and shooting OF the pas
sengers and officers and crew OF the virginius. In
the proper sense OF the word they had no trial
Whatever. IL IL most probable that when the facts
become known, 1t will be found thatsthey were not
even brought before the pretended military court
which sentenced them TO death. AZ for the plea
that they were pirates Snd condemned as such,
shat is an absurdity. The law or nations will not
Justify any such excuse. A parcel OF Wild Indians
