Tortuga*—Outrage* on Pritonen, etc.
Edmon Spangler, who was tried and sen
tenced by a military commission in Hay, 18C5,
on a charge of being engaged in the plot to as
sassinate President Lincoln, and who was par
doned by President Johnson at the close of his
administration, has prepared a statement, as
serting his innocence of all knowledge of the
crime, and detailing the cruelties practiced on
the prisoners before and after conviction.
Spangler, it will be recollected, was a scene
shifter at Ford's Theatre, and was on the stage
in diet capacity when J. Wilkes Booth shot Mr.
Lincoln, and jumped from the box. He also at
timea eared for Booth's horse. The evidence
against him was of the flimsiest character.
Nearly everybody believed him innocent, and
the military commission only sentenced him to
six years at the Dry Tortngas, while the others
were sent for life. The commission was or
ganized to convict, and it convicted. Abnnd-
S ant testimony is now at hand to show the vast
amount of perjury of that trial—perjury exact
ed by fear and dictated by malice. Spangler’s
allusion to the witness Welchman being in the
nlxlnction plot is important. Weichman’s tes
timony, it will be remembered, hnng Mrs. Sur
ratt. 'The following is the statement sworn and
and subscribed to:
STATEMENT OF ZDMAN BPASOLES.
I have deemed it due to truth to preparo for
publication the foUowing statement—at a time
when I hope the temper of the people wiU give
roe a patient hearing—of my arrest, trial and
imprisonment, for alleged complicity in the plot
to assassinate the late President Lincoln. I have
suflered much, but I solemnly assert now, as I
alwas have since I was arraigned for trial at the
Washington Arsenal,that I am entirely innocent
of any fore or after knowledge of the crime
which John Wilkes Booth committed—save what
I knew in common with everybody after it took
place. I further solemnly assort that John
Wilke, Bootn, or any pther person never men
tioned to me any plot, or intimation of a plot,
for tho abduction or assassination of Pres
ident Lincoln ; that I did not know when
Booth leaped from the box to tbe stage of the
theatre, that ha bad jabot Mr. Lincoln ; and
that I did not, in any way, so help me God, as
sist in his escape; and farther declare that I am
. entirely innocent of any and all charges made
against mo in that connection. I never knew
either Surratt, Payne, Atzerodt, Arnold or Har
old, or any of the so-called conspirators, nor did
I ever see any of them nntil they appeared in
custody. Whilo imprisoned with Atzerodt,
I’ayne and Harold,ana after their trial was over
I was allowed a few minutes' exercise in tho
prison ynrd. I heard the three unite in assert
ing Mrs. Surratt's entire innocence, and ac
knowledge their own guilt, confining the crime,
as they did, entirely to themselves, but implica
ting the witness, Welchman, in knowledge of
the original plot to abduct; and with furnish
ing information from tho Commissary of Pris
oners' Department whero Weichmsn was
clerk.
HIS ABBEST AND HABBAIiOCB TREATMENT.
The statement then details the particulars of
his arrest, which occurred on tbe With of April,
1865. no continues:
I was aUowed on the fourth day of my im
prisonment to walk the prison ynrd, hut from
that bvening I was closely confined and guarded
- until the next Saturday at midnight, when I was
“ again taken to the office to seo a detoctive, who
said: “Como, Spangler, I've some jewelry for
yon.” Ho handcuffed mo with my hands be*
hind my hack, and guarding me to a hack, I
was placed in it and driven to the Navy Yard,
whero my legs were manacled and a pair of
Lillie handcuffs placed on my wrists. I was
put in a boat and rowed to a monitor, where I
was taken on board and thrown in a small, dirty
room, between two water-closets and on to a bed
of filthy life-preservers and blankets, with two
soldiers guarding the door. I was kept there
for three days. I had been thus confined three
days on tho vessel, when Captain Mnnroo came
to mo and said: “Spangler I'vo aometning that
must bo told, bat you must not be frightened.
We have order* from tho Secretary of War, who
must bo obeyed, to put a bag on your bead.”—
Then two men came and tied np my head so se
curely that I could not soe daylight. I had
plenty of food, but coold not eat with myfaco
so muffled np. True, there was a small hole in
tho bag near my mouth, but I could not reach
that, as my hands were wedged down by tho
iron. At last, two kind-hearted soldiers took
compassion on me, and while one watched the
other fed me. On Saturday night a man came
■ to me, and after drawing the bag so tight as to
nearly suffooate mo, said to the guard, “Don't
let him go to sleep, as we will carry him ont to
bang him directly..* I heard them go up on the
deck, when there was a gnat rattling of chains
and other noises; and while I was trying to im
agine what was going on, and what they intend
ed to do, I was dragged ont by two men, who
j£th pulled me at times in opposite directions.
\Vo however, reached a boat, in which I was
placed, and were rowed a short distance. I could
not say then whero we stopped, for my face was
still covered. After leaving the boat, I was
forced to walk some distance, with the heavy
irons still on my legs. I was An suddenly
stopped, and made to ascend three or four flights
of stair; and as I stood at tho top waiting, some
one a truck me a severe blow on tho top of the
head which stunned and half threw mo over,
when I was pushed into a small room, where I
remained in an unconscious condition for sev-
_ oral hours. The next morning some one came
W nith bread and coffee.
TBIAX AND CONVICTION.
I remained here several days, suffering tor
ture from the bag or padded hood over my face.
It was on Sunday when it was removed and I
was shaven. It waa then replaced. Some hours
after General Hartranft came and read to me
several charges, that I was engaged in a plot to
assassinate the President, and the day foUowing
I was carried to a military court and still hooded
before aU of its members. I remained but a
short time, when I was returned to my ceU for
another day and night, and then again presented
in this court. Mr. Bidgham Assistant Judge
Advocate, read the charges against me, and
asked if I had any objection to tho court and I
replied “No,”andmade my plea of “Not guilty.”
They then wished to know if I desired counsel,
and when I answered affirmatively General Hun
ter, the President of the Court, insisted that I
should not be allowed counsel. He eras, how
ever, overruled, but it was several days before I
waa permitted legal aid, the court, in the mean
time taking evidence with closed doors. On
every adjournment of the court, if only for an
hour I was returned to my ceU and the closely
fitting hood placed over my head. This con
tinued tiU June 10,1865, when I was relieved
from the torture of the bag, bnt my hands and-
limbs remained heavily manacled.
WHAT HE KNOWS OF MBS. SURRATT.
The first time I ever saw Mis. Surratt was in
the Carroll prison yard, on Capitol HilL I did
not see her again until we were taken into court
the first day at the arsenal. My ceU was on the
sanjfi corridor with hers, and I had to pass it
every time I was taken into court. I frequently
looked into her cell, a small room about four
feet wide by seven feet long. The only things
in her cell were an old mattrass laid on the
bricks and an army blanket. I could see the
irons on her feet, as she was generally lying on
the mattrass, and was the last one brought into
court. She occupied a seat in court near the
prison door. The seat was twelve inches high,
^and the chains between the irons on her feet
“ were so short that she always had to be assisted
to her seat. She was so rick at one time that
the court was compelled to adjourn.
norSD FOR THE TORTCGAS.
On the 17th of July, about midnight, I was
conveyed to a steamboat, and arrived the next
day at Fortress Monroe, and was thence taken
to the gunboat Florida. The irons on my arms
were temporarily removed, but Captain Dutton
inuimg*at.tln-liri, ordered Tieavy Lillie'
mms to be placed on me, when General Dodd,
^,°® < r e . r m charge, more humanely counter
manded his order and had the irons again re-
I was Placed for securi-
ty in the lower hold of th vessel, and compelled
to descend to it by a ladder. The Toundswere
“ , th ® 110118 011 m 7 feet were
hnined bnt a few inches apart, my legs were
bruised and lacerated fearfully. The hole where
liras confined was close and dirty, but after two
?. r mree days I was allowed on deck in the day-
tune, but was closely guarded. I was aUowed
to speak to no one of the crew. Wo arrived at
Fort Jefferson, on the Dry Tortngas, and were
handed over to Colonel Hamilton, commanding,
who placed me nntil the next day in a casemate,
iho next day I was brought before Colonel H.,
who informed mo that he had no more stringent
orders concerning me than other prisoners con
fined there.
MORE BARBARITIES.
I managed to get along comfortably for a
time, though to some of tbe prisoners the offi
cers were very crneL One man by the rutma of
Dnnn, while helping in unloading a government
transport, got hold of some liquor and imbibed
too freely, for which he was taken to th* guard
house, and tied np to the window frame by his
thumbs for two honrs. General Hill then or
dered him to be taken down, and be made to
carry a thirty-two pound bail, bnt as the hang
ing had deprived him of the use of thumbs, he
was unable to obey. The officers, however,
put two twenty-four pound balls in a knapsack,
and compelled him to carry them until the sack
gave way from tho weight of the iron. He was
then tied np by tho wrists, and gagged in the
mouth by the bayonet from 8 p.- m. till the next
morning. He was then taken down and thrown
into the gnard-honso, bnt was so exhausted that
he had to be removed to tho hospital. It was
decided to amputate three of his fingers, but
this was reconsidered. Ho lost, however, the
use of his thumb and two fingers. This pnnish-
ment was inflicted by Major McConnell, officer
of the day, and was carried out by Sergeant
Edward Donnelly.
Another poor prisoner, named Brown, was
once excused by tho doctor from work, on the
plea of illness, bnt the Provost Marshal insisted,
and finding him too ill and lacking strength,
made him carry a thirty-two pound ball. Ho
staggered under tho weight and was compelled,
from weakness, to put it down. He was then
taken to tbe wharf.and with his legs tied togeth
er and his hands tied behind him, a rope was
placed aronnd him and he was thrown into the
water and then dragged out. This was dono
three or four times, ne begging for mercy most
piteously. He was finally jerked ont of thi ■■
ter and then qrdered to return to his ordinary
work. The poor wretch crept off apparently
thankful for any escape from such torment.
Captain Joseph Rittcnhouso was officer of the
I day,and his orders wore carried out by Corporal
Spear.
Daring the latter part of last October I was
placed in irons and compelled to work, with an
armed sentinel over me. I did not know tho
reason for this, I was unconscious of having
given offence and had conformed to every reg-
ulation. I vu then closely confined and al-
lowed to communicate with no one for four
months. Tbe pretence for this, I afterwards
learned, sprang from an attempt of Dr. Mudd
to escape.
FATE OF COLONEL G RENTER
Colonel SL George Leger Grenfel, aged Cl
years, was taken sick and went to tho doctor to]
get excused from work. The doctor decked to
excuse him. He then applied to the provost
marshal, who said he oould not excuse him if tho
doctor couldn’t Grenfel then tried to work and
failed. They then took him to the guard-house,
tied him up for half a day, and then took him to
tho wharf, tied his bauds behind him, tied his
I legs together, and pat a rope aronnd his waist
There were threo officers, heavily armed, who
drove spectators from the wharf; I could seo
and hear from my window. The Colonel asked
them if they were going to throw him into the
water, and they answered “Yes." He then
jumped in, and bocause ho conld not rink, they
drew him out and tied about forty pounds of
| iron to his leg*, and throw him into the water
again, and then compelled him to go to work.
The officers who had him in hand were Lieuten
ant ltobinson, Lieutenant Pike and Captaiff
George W. Crab, assisted by Sergeant Michael
Gleason, and Assistant Military Storekeeper G.
T. Jackson, who tied tho iron on hislegs. Cap
tain Samuel Peebles tied up Grenfel for saying
that “he was capable of doUig anything.” Col.
Grenfel was forced to scrub and do other menial
work, when he proved he was so ill as to have
refused to eat Ins rations for a week.
All of the officers hated Grenfel, on acoount
of a letter which appeared in a New York
paper, whiohthey said Grenfel wrote, abont
tying up the prisoner Dunn—which letter was
truthful, as others and myself were witnesses to
tho details it related. One very stormy night,
Grenfel, with four othera escaped in a small
boat, and was evidently drowned near the fort.
His escape was discovered but the storm was so
severe that it was deemed too dangerous to pur
sue them, although a steamer waa at the wharf.
Grenfel frequently declared his intention of
running any risk to escape, rather than, to use
his own word*, “to be tortured to death at tho
fort.” These aro only two or three instances
of the many acts of cruelty practiced at the fort.
During my imprisonment at Fort Jefferson, I
worked very hard at carpentering and wood or
namental work, making a great many fancy
boxes, etc., ont of tho peculiar wood found on
the adjaoent islands; the greater portion of this
work was made for officers. By my industry in
that direction, I won some favor in their eyes.
I was released in March of the present year by
Executive clemency.

The New fork Dry Goods Market.
From the Independent, June, 24.]
The spring season is nearly over, and the re
vival that every one has been anticipating in the
dry goods market has not been developed. It
will hardly come now and the excitement that
was expected will havo to bo left over nntil falL
Until then nothing better than a dull and steady
market can be reasonably looked for. Prices
have a decidedly drooping tendency, but there
is no panic, nor any cause for one. The market
generally, for both cottons and woolens is very
rioggish.
A very fow transactions in brown sheetings
and shirting3 of an amount worth noting have
taken place from first hands. Though some of
the jobbers havo reduced tho prices of leading
makes of sheetings abont half a cent a yard, tho
market remains substantially as last week. In
bleached shirtings and sheetings there is very
little movement, and prices are without quota
ble change. Printing cloths in the gray are in
active, bnt the stock in first hands is small, and
prices show no signs of giving away. Prints
are in moderate demand, and tho new styles Bell
readily at full prices; 'but the oia patterns aro
heavy and difficult of sale, except at n considera
ble concession of prices. Ginghams of the best
makes are in fair demand, and sell readily at the
top of the market.
Printed lawn and percales of good styles meet
with ready sale, as it is now the height of tho
season for thin goods. Bnt tho old styles and
inferior grades are very slow of sale, even at re
duced prices. ltolled jaconets and cambrics are
in demand, bnt prices remain without es
sential change. Silesias are improving, sales
are more lively, and tbe demand from the
clothiers is much better than it has been.—
Mnslin do Trfnnu are not lit much demand at this
season of the year'; but a few of the better
qualities, medium colors, find ready purchasers.
The rest of the market for domestic cottons is
without any special change. Prices do not vary
essentially from last week's quotations.
Woolehs of all kinds are exceptionally dull,
even for the season. Cassimeres and satinets
are without any marked change. There is very
little-doing, and sales are confined mostly to the
finer grades of cassimeres, adapted to the sea
son, and suited to the city trade.
The transactions in foreign dry goods aro
now confined almost wholly to seasonable fab
rics, adapted to the city retail trade; and for
goods of this description, particularly the richer
kinds of dress goods and the high-priced silks,
the demand is good, and prices must be satis
factory to the importers, who have not much
j cause for satisfaction in the sale of goods of a
l cheaper character.
