SummaryResumen
The newspaper reported on a historical misunderstanding between President Grant and Senator Sumner regarding General Babcock's expenditures from the secret service fund for San Domingo versus the treaty for the acquisition of the Dominican Republic. According to Major Poore's statement, Sumner believed the President wanted him to defend the expenditure, while the President actually meant the acquisition treaty.

Conforme a las declaraciones del mayor Poore, Sumner creyó que el gobernante deseaba que defendiera el desembolso pecuniario, cuando el mandatario aludía en realidad al tratado de anexión.
