SummaryResumen
The Commission reports that it examined the originals of the annexation treaty and the Samana lease in the archives of the Dominican Government in Santo Domingo City, in the presence of the President and his Cabinet on February 18, 1871, and found no particle of evidence of any secret clause or concession favoring any United States official. President Baez told the commissioners his government was willing to stand by the 1869 treaty, but asked whether the Samana rent for the nearly two years of delay might fairly be paid without deduction, and he agreed to modify the treaty to devote one-fifth of the public lands to common schools if the United States would add land for colleges of agriculture, mining and engineering.
La Comisión informa que examinó los originales del tratado de anexión y del arrendamiento de Samaná en los archivos del Gobierno dominicano en la ciudad de Santo Domingo, en presencia del Presidente y su Gabinete el 18 de febrero de 1871, y no encontró ni la menor evidencia de cláusula secreta o concesión alguna en favor de ningún funcionario de los Estados Unidos. El presidente Báez dijo a los comisionados que su gobierno estaba dispuesto a mantener el tratado de 1869, pero preguntó si no sería justo que la renta de Samaná por los casi dos años de demora se pagara sin deducción, y aceptó modificar el tratado para dedicar una quinta parte de las tierras públicas a escuelas comunes si los Estados Unidos añadían tierras para colegios de agricultura, minería e ingeniería.
