I am unwilling that the United States should rest under tLfe imputation of having violated the law of nations as well as the laws of humanity. as the facts in the cases to which I have referred Indicate was done. Our Government should promptly punish all parties who were connected in any manner with the murder of Torres and Henojosa and show by its course its abhorrence and detestation of their acts and conduct. I protest against the conduct of these agents and officials In seizing political refugees who sought an asylum upon American soil and delivered them Into the hands of military forces of a foreign country who were thirsting for their blood and who immediately after receiving them shot them down like dogs.
