SummaryResumen

The Bridgeport Evening Farmer reported that a violent mob stormed the Dominican consulate in Port-au-Prince, dragging out Haitian General Oscar—who had sought refuge there following palace clashes and the execution of political prisoners—and shooting him dead. The crowd also besieged the French legation, where Haitian President Guillaume had fled after rebels damaged the executive mansion. In response to the breakdown of order, the U.S. cruiser *Washington*, carrying Rear Admiral Caperton and an expeditionary marine force, sailed to intervene.

The Bridgeport Evening Farmer informó que una violenta multitud asaltó el consulado dominicano en Puerto Príncipe, de donde sacaron a rastras al general haitiano Oscar —quien se había refugiado allí tras combates en el palacio y el fusilamiento de presos políticos— y lo acribillaron a tiros. La multitud sitió también la legación francesa, donde se había refugiado el presidente haitiano Guillaume tras los destrozos causados por los rebeldes en la mansión ejecutiva. Ante el quebranto del orden, el crucero de los EE. UU. *Washington*, con el contralmirante Caperton y una fuerza expedicionaria de infantería de marina a bordo, zarpó para intervenir.
