SummaryResumen

The *Washington Tribune* reported on the annual findings of U.S. High Commissioner General John H. Russell, who praised economic advances, industrial education, and President Borno's administration in Haiti under the 1915 treaty. These positive assertions conflicted with charges made by U.S. Senator William H. King, who had demanded the withdrawal of American forces. President Borno had recently barred Senator King from visiting Haiti over the senator's derogatory remarks.

Recientemente, el presidente Borno había prohibido la entrada del senador King a Haití debido a sus comentarios denigrantes.

his report:
