SummaryResumen

This retrospective account tells how General Babcock returned with the San Domingo annexation treaty, which President Grant sent to the Senate at once, and how Charles Sumner, chairman of the Committee on Foreign Relations, bitterly opposed it, accusing Baez of being an adventurer held in power by the United States Navy. On June 30, 1870, the treaty failed to receive two-thirds and was rejected, Sumner was removed from his chairmanship, and Baez, when told the result, told the Dominican Congress the measure would nevertheless succeed in the end, while Grant declined to repeat the effort.

Este recuento retrospectivo narra cómo el general Babcock regresó con el tratado de anexión de Santo Domingo, que el presidente Grant envió de inmediato al Senado, y cómo Charles Sumner, presidente del Comité de Relaciones Exteriores, se opuso amargamente a él, acusando a Báez de ser un aventurero mantenido en el poder por la Marina de los Estados Unidos. El 30 de junio de 1870 el tratado no obtuvo los dos tercios y fue rechazado, Sumner fue removido de la presidencia del comité, y Báez, al conocer el resultado, dijo al Congreso dominicano que la medida, no obstante, triunfaría al final, mientras Grant se negó a repetir el intento.
