SummaryResumen

According to *The New York Freeman* on May 14, 1887, a speaker at a meeting credited President Heureux of the Dominican Republic, Minister of Foreign Nations M. M. Guetieu, and the Minister of Public Improvements for offering inducements to United States capitalists to develop the Dominican Republic's resources. The speaker asserted that erroneous reports had been circulated by designing individuals to discredit the country and maintain a monopoly, to the detriment of commercial relations between San Domingo and the United States.

Según *The New York Freeman* del 14 de mayo de 1887, un orador ensalzó al mandatario Heureaux de la República Dominicana, al ministro de Relaciones Exteriores M. M. Gautier y al ministro de Fomento por brindar garantías a los capitalistas estadounidenses para la explotación de las riquezas dominicanas. Aseveró el tribuno que individuos malintencionados propagaban especies falsas para desprestigiar a la nación y perpetuar un monopolio comercial, con grave quebranto de las relaciones mercantiles entre Santo Domingo y los Estados Unidos.

investigation which will go far in determining

and developing all of these great enterprises

now contemplated by our people, and in which

in tende ing me this compliment to-night, it

the Dominican Republic and its Minister of For
