Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Cuba; Trial of F. A Dockray: Speech of Hon. S. B. Conover, of Florida, in the United States Senate, June 23, 1874 Mr. Conover. I move that the Senate proceed to the consideration of the resolution offered by me on the 14th of May last, in reference to the arrest, imprisonment, and trial of F. A. Dockray, a citizen of Florida. The motion was agreed to; and the Senate proceeded to consider the following resolution: Resolved, That the President of the United States is hereby requested, if in his opinion compatible with the public interest, to lay before the Senate the correspondence between the Government and our consular agents in Cuba and the Spanish government in reference to the arrest, imprisonment, and trial of F. A. Dockray, a citizen of the United States, for alleged political offenses committed in Cuba. Mr. Conover. Mr. President, there is nothing so peculiar in the conduct pursued by the Spanish authorities in Cuba toward Mr. Dockray that alone would have led me, as a representative of the State of which he is a citizen, to move the resolution relative to him. His case, unfortunately, is not singular. We have been made too familiar in the past with arbitrary arrests, military trials, and illegal executions of American citizens by those who have held despotic authority in the Island of Cuba to be surprised by any new arrest. I am well satisfied that the executive department has been mindful of Mr. Dockray´s claim upon its protection, and that all proper steps to obtain for him that kind of trial and those safeguards of liberty which are guaranteed to him by the treaty between the United States and Spain have been taken.
