More on The Annexation DebateMás sobre El debate de la anexión

SummaryResumen

The report covers a Senate debate on the annexation of St. Domingo, in which one speaker denounced the scheme as a private, corrupt job, saying the annexation would be only of husks because the kernels had already gone to private parties. Other senators spoke on both sides: Mr. Hoar of Massachusetts refused to support the measure out of respect for the President, Mr. Stevenson of Ohio favored acquiring Dominica for its minerals, harbors and fertile soil, and a dispatch was read announcing that the Indiana Senate had instructed its senators to vote against annexation.

El informe cubre un debate en el Senado sobre la anexión de Santo Domingo, en el que un orador denunció el plan como un negocio privado y corrupto, diciendo que la anexión sería solo de cáscaras porque el grano ya había ido a parar a manos privadas. Otros senadores hablaron en ambos sentidos: el Sr. Hoar, de Massachusetts, se negó a apoyar la medida por respeto al Presidente, el Sr. Stevenson, de Ohio, favoreció adquirir Dominica por sus minerales, puertos y suelo fértil, y se leyó un despacho que anunciaba que el Senado de Indiana había instruido a sus senadores a votar contra la anexión.
