Major Rathbone has returned to the
United States to seek vindication from
the charges of fraud made against him
Is director general of ports in Cuba
He has never acted like a guilty man,
and every move of the court that con-
victed him indicated malice. The
bond Of 800. 900, nxed in the cases,
also shows it. In this country many
men charged with murder go free on
bonds of one-tenth and less. Major
Rathbone has had staunch friend in
Senator Hanna, who is presumed to
know the facts and who would not at
tempt to shield a guilty man, or one
known to be guilty. 1t is hoped that
Major Rathbone will secure vindica-
tiop.
