SummaryResumen

The *New York Herald* reported that an expedition of 1,000 men was marching against Samaná, the last location holding out for Báez, while business in Port au Plata and Santiago remained safe despite all provincial military forces being under arms. The Cibao government sought to purchase two small clipper schooners and other armaments, including an 18-inch mortar, to blockade Santo Domingo. Additionally, the newspaper noted local astonishment that the U.S. government had not sent a warship to demand satisfaction regarding the seizure of the American schooner *Charles Hill* by Báez.

El *New York Herald* notificó que una columna de mil hombres marchaba sobre Samaná, último reducto que sostenía la causa de Báez, mientras el comercio en Puerto Plata y Santiago proseguía a salvo pese a permanecer sobre las armas todas las milicias provinciales. El gobierno del Cibao procuraba adquirir dos goletas de casco fino y otros pertrechos, comprendido un mortero de dieciocho pulgadas, para estrechar el bloqueo sobre Santo Domingo. El diario hacía constar la sorpresa de los pobladores ante la omisión del gobierno de Washington de comisionar un buque de guerra para reclamar reparaciones por el embargo de la goleta estadounidense *Charles Hill* dispuesto por Báez.
