Washington, Oct. 6.-The calebra ted case of Julio Sanguilly is presented in a seni-official form in a pamphlet issued today by Sanguillys counsel here, Jose Roderiguez. It gives the story in detail and gives a number of Ietters passing between Secretary O1ney, Senator Sher- man. Consul Lee and the United States minister at Madrid, Mir. Hannis Taylor not appearing in the state department publications and heretofore unpublished
 As whole the document tpho1ds tie course of President Cleveland and Secre- tary Olney and points out that the agi. tatton in Sanguilly's behalf in congress served only to prejudice his case. After stating that the attention of congress and tfDs publis was not attracted to San- gully "untm the very moment in which through skillful diplomatic management, the release of Sanguilly from imprison- rnent without further suffering or hu- initiation had been secunad," the writer says: But that moment was one of ex- treme perplexity which the friends of Sanguiily wihl not easily forget. Through an exurberant effusion of patriotic zeal and most commenlable humanitarian feeling on the part of certain members of the United States senate-through a ncbse. although misguided, sentiment of generous compassion, industtiously work ed up in their minds and in the minds cf the kind-heanted, people of this coun- try by wilful misrepresentation of the faets of the case and by stories propa- gated by false friends and dntr1lders abount wrongs and sufferings and indig- nit5es perpetrated upon the prisoner, which, in fact, were never perpetrated or attempted to be perpetrated, though the desire of certain Cuban agitators without authority to speak for the pris- oner or his fri;r1Ids urging extreme measures of precipitating, is possible, a conflict between the United States and Spain, aiming at no other end and seek ing no othstr purpose than the advancing of the cause in the advocacy of which they wene engaged; through the tempta- ton in which many distinguished pub- lie man of this country seemed to have been led of converting a case which inr- voived tine liberty and perhaps the life of a citizen of the United States of America into an instrument of opposition to the ideas and principles represented by President Cleveland an1 his secre- tlary of state, MT. Olney, through the vociferation of certain part of the press and through many other causes and cir cumstauces, a condition of things which might have proved fatal was created at once. A measure of doubtful justice aud of more than questionable efficacy, cal culated perhaps more to irritaet Spain and enIbroil the United States of to save Sanguilly and grounds upon an imperfect knowledge of the facts of the 2 case, was attempted to be rushed through the United States senate ex- alctly at the same time at which the conclusion had been already reached by Spain to comply with the wishes of the United States of America and set Julio SanguiIly at liberty was being carried into execution.
 .'Thanks to Divine Providence, through the righteous attitude of inc state de- partmerit, through the firm stand of some honorable senators, who were then called organs of the governor general of Cuba or of the queen of Spain and against whom the friends of the meas ure owledged to Itave used "a It. tile iby-word of badinage;' 'tllrough tine cooperation of the Spanish n,inistei, and perhaps through the earnest appeal of the prisoners counsel to the honor able chairman of the senate commb1.ee on foreign relations the crisis was avert ed and the most gracious act of her majesty, the queen regent of Spain, to scsutely a stranger, could be carried into effect in Havana, without the slightest difficulty.
 s'Wlhen the echo of the speeches which were made in the senate aind of the ap- plauses which their most fiery passages had clacfted from the galleries had not al5 yet died out, SanguiIly, already free man, was joining his family and pre- pairing to leave the island of Cuba.
 Warm hearts and cool heads had once more overpowercd the furies of bliad ex- cltemeut.''
