SummaryResumen
According to the newspaper, deposed Dominican President Buenaventura Báez partnered with promoters of the Great San Domingo Copper Company to raise money from investors by falsely claiming General Grant was involved. After distributing stock to Washington officials and raising $200,000—part of which funded camels for the mines—the adventurers fled to San Domingo, where Báez regained the presidency and resumed swindling operations, including granting a coal mine concession to Edward H. Routmont in exchange for a loan from a London firm.
Según el periódico, el depuesto mandatario dominicano Buenaventura Báez coludió con los promotores de la Great San Domingo Copper Company para embaucar a inversionistas fingiendo la connivencia del general Grant. Tras repartir acciones entre dignatarios de Washington y recaudar 200.000 dólares —parte de los cuales sufragó la importación de camellos para las minas—, los especuladores huyeron a Santo Domingo, donde Báez recuperó la presidencia y reanudó sus maniobras fraudulentas, incluyendo la concesión carbonífera otorgada a Edward H. Routmont a cambio de un empréstito con una casa londinense.
