CrRAcoA, May IA, 1870
question OF considerable difficulty has arisen be-
tween tho governments OF tho Republic of Venezuela
and the United States in consequence OF the summary
arrest and imprisonment of d.. Charles w. Torrcy, Of
Yonkcrs, ~ ", native born American, by order of
President Guzman Banco
HISTORY or THE CASH.
The official documents, which have bcen forwarded to
Washington, lengthy, but the pith of the case is
as follows:-Dr. Torrey states that he to venc
zuela and Curacao with tho view OF establish
Ing q limo OF steamers to ply between
Curacao and New York. President Blanco, of
Venezuela is said TO be personally interested in the
profits of the carrying trade as u was then iuctcd
some fifteen or eighteen months since An mme-
diato point OF grievance camc in consequence OF the
visit OF the schooner Midas to different ports OF
Venezuela and in the neghborhood for the purpose
alleged by President Banco, OF supplying arms and
ammunition to the Venezuelan rcvolutionsts; but as
Dr. Torrcy asserts for the business of legitimate trade
in connection with organization OF the steamship
line. The Midas was accused by the Blnnco Execu-
tiveo OF being engaged in smuggling, and her com
mander and crew IN "hatching consprncies against
the existing government This Ia denied cmphaticaly
by the Americans. They say that the Midas left Cura-
con Tor Venezuelan port, landed the cargo, said 10
consist OF arms ana ammuntion; but this not
proved, however. She visited another port immedi-
acly aitcrward for and news seized by Guz-
mans officers, tho Captain and crew tortured with
thunbscrcws, without anything being elected except
from little cabin boy, who knew nothing but
forced 10 say whatever was wanted. They were then
ALL including passenger, thrown INTO prison and
tanned variousy from six TO ten months.
ToRREy's SUFFERING.
DR.. Torrey wishing to return to the United States
and land at New York, applied for passport TO the vcne
zucan Secretary Of State, which at first granted,
but subsequently revoked He then ASKED permission
OF tho at Caracas to leave the English
steamer for Curacoa against which dependency OF Hol
land BlancO eptertains strong dislike Having
barkcd on bis voyage no landed at Lngusyra and
ported to the American Consul His passport vscd
by the Venezuelan officer OF the port Thc Doctor
was, however, subsequently refused a ticket to
leave on the English mail steamer without
permission from tho authorities The signals
for tho steamer 10 90 duly gwen, the
baggage put on, but Dr. Torrcy suinmariy ar
rested by virtue OF the personal order OF Guzman
Blanco. He was detained many hours although II
known that he was bearing dispatches TO the United
States government.
Thanking tho United States Consul and other officials
who aided him In his danger DR.. Torrcy has now
placed the entire matter IN the hands OF Mr. Fish. All
the documents connected with the have been duly
forwarded 70 the State Department in Washington.
