DECISION OF JUDGE BENEDICT IN THE
sANBoRN CASE.

DECISION OF JUDGE BENEDICT IN THE
sANBoRN CASE.
NEW YORK, March 31.-Judge Bene-
dict gave decision to-day on the points
raised yesterday by the counsel ior the
defense In what Is commonly called the
SanbOrn case. The counsel held first,
that there was no allegation in the indict.
ment that Sanborn, Hawley and Wander.
werken conspired with any other persons
10 deiraud the United States second, that
no offence Is charged under any law that
exists upon the statute book third, that
the contract Ia not set out in the indict-
ment, and for these reasons they objected
to the admission Of any evidence under
the indictment regarding these points as
involving q test question, and they were
so treated by the counsel on both sides.
The Judge holds that the contract
which Sanborn obtained does not limit
his right 10 portion Of such oil the taxes
therein named as might be collected by
his aid and thereafter rendered, but that
upon the execution OF this contract San
born acquired the right to receive upon
the collection Of the taxes included in his
contract the stipulated portion Of such
taxes, however and by whomsoever col.
lected.
The contract was claimed by Sanborn
and awarded by the Secretary on the
ground that Ssnborn had already discov-
cred the Indebtedness TO the United
States OF the parties named, and
that these taxes were being withheld.
1t in express terms confers on Sanborn
the right to collect the taxes due from the
parties designated by name, and it then
expressly declares whenever any money
shall be collected from the persons named,
either by legal proceedings conducted by
the proper U. s. Attorney or by settle.
ment as q compromise OF said claims.
There shall be paid to Sanborn out OF
such money as fast as collected so per
cent Of the amount which is now
herein the contract described as the
compensation Tor services rendered In
collecting Indebtedness, which was
thought TO have been discovered by him.
Such contract does not support the aver.
ment in the indictment, and with such
contract conceded, ! am of the opinion
that this contract must fail. The theory
upon which the indictment Is framed de.
pends on q misconception oil the scope
and effect Of the contract, and the error
seems fatal to the indictment. Such being
my opinion on what Is concluded to be
decisive point in the case, l do not con.
slider the other grounds oi objection.

HAVANA.

New YORK, March 3l.-A letter from
Havana says the incendiRry torch Is max.
ing great havoc In the sugar plantations
Of the Island. The spaniards call the
perpetrators highwsYmen and the Cubans
say 1t Is the work Of the Insurgents. The
destruction Of property Is fearful and in
the most fertile part Of the sugar growing
country. On the 18th Of March the vii.
lage Of Jaguayabon, in the Jurisdiction OF
Remedias and the surrounding country,
were illuminated by burning cane fields
Of sugar. At plantation Maria about
800 acres Of sugar cane were destroyed,
so acres oi which had already been about
ready for the mill. The volunteers were
sent out in search Of the lncendiaries, and
several other detachments have been dis
patched among the other States for their
protection.
The Patriot army in the central depart.
ment now numbers over 10000, and the
whole army throughout the Island is esti.
mated at near 5000. The impression Is
general that Concha will make propo-
sitions of peace 10 the Marquis oi Santa
Lucia, but no conditions will be accepted
except an unconditional surrender Of the
Spanisrds and their departure from the
Island.
