SummaryResumen
The *Evening Star* published an interview with Dominican leader Horacio Vásquez, who described the nation's abundant mineral resources, including deposits of copper, precious metals, and vast salt reserves. Vásquez maintained that political stability had been quickly restored after President Heureaux's assassination through the establishment of a provisional government. He sharply criticized the San Domingo Improvement Company, asserting that it had merely constructed a railroad with Dominican state funds, enriching itself, Heureaux, and local financier Cosme Batlle at the country's expense.
