SummaryResumen

The *New-York Tribune* reported on April 7, 1874, that the return of ex-President Baez to power led to the release of Carlos and Felix Baez upon the intercession of the French Consul, while business remained stagnant and government obligations were offered at an 85 percent discount. Additionally, the announcement that the treaty between the Santo Domingo Government and the Samana Bay Company had been abrogated discouraged promoters and sympathizers, prompting returning Commissioners Capt. Samuels and Gov. Fabens to hold informal consultations with company director Paul N. Spofford and other members in New York.

El *New-York Tribune* informó el 7 de abril de 1874 que el regreso al poder del expresidente Báez condujo a la liberación de Carlos y Félix Báez tras la intercesión del cónsul francés, mientras que el comercio permanecía paralizado y las obligaciones gubernamentales se ofrecían con un 85 por ciento de descuento. Además, el anuncio de la abrogación del tratado entre el gobierno de Santo Domingo y la Samana Bay Company desalentó a promotores y simpatizantes, lo que motivó a los comisionados retornados, el capitán Samuels y el gobernador Fabens, a sostener consultas informales en Nueva York con el director de la compañía Paul N. Spofford y otros miembros.

the return of ex-Prosident Baez to power, Upon the

intercession of the Freneh Consul in their behalf, Carlos

and Felix Baez were subsequently released,

Business was stagnant, owing to the unsettled condi-

tion of the country and the scarcity of money, The

obligations of the Government, issued at par, were

offered for sale at 85 per cent discount,

THE ANNOUNCEMENT IN NEW-YORK,

The announcement that the treaty negotiated between

the Santo Domingo Government and the Samana Bay

Company had been abrogated fell with discouraging

effect upon the hopes of the promoters of and syinpa-

thizers with the scheme. Capt. Samuels and Gov.

Fabens, the Commissioners appointed to investigate and

negotiate with the Dominican authorities, were com-

pelled to admit that the published advices were too true,

but that they hoped that the Company in a short time

would be able to remedy the apparently hopeless con-

dition of affairs, Tinmediately upon their landing in this

oity they proceeded to the office of Paul N, Spofford,

a director intimately connected with the commer-

cial interests of the island and the Company, and the

consiznee of the Company's steamer Tybee, Some time

was spent in consultation with Mr. Spofford and other

directors of the Company, As the by-laws of the Com-

pany require three days’ notice before a meeting, the

discussion between the members was of an informal

character. Very soon the news brought by the Tybee

became generally krown, and many inquiries were

made by persons who called for information.
