SummaryResumen

The newspaper reported that Commissioners found no evidence to support charges regarding municipal grants at Samana after examining records and authorities. Additionally, the Commissioners stated that Dominicans are willing to be annexed based on the treaty terms, with added requests including rent payment for Samana and a $300,000 appropriation for an agricultural and scientific college. Finally, the Commissioners expressed their belief, based on observations and facts, that annexation after a period of probation is the only way for the Dominican Republic to secure its independence.

El rotativo consignó que los comisionados no hallaron indicio alguno que corroborase las acusaciones de concesiones municipales en Samaná tras inspeccionar los registros y entrevistar a las autoridades. Asimismo, los delegados señalaron que los dominicanos se allanaban gustosos a la anexión con arreglo a las condiciones pactadas, recabando demandas adicionales como la liquidación del arriendo de Samaná y una consignación de 300.000 dólares para erigir un colegio agrícola y científico. Por último, los comisionados expresaron su convencimiento, apoyado en hechos y testimonios oculares, de que la anexión tras un período probatorio era la única fórmula para que la República Dominicana consolidase su independencia.
