SummaryResumen
According to the *Daily press and Dakotaian* on January 12, 1878, an incessant revolutionary conflict had prevailed in San Domingo for months, putting foreign merchants and their families in danger while no American naval vessel had appeared at Puerto Plata since the outbreak began over three months prior. Consequently, U.S. Consul Douglass departed, leaving a native Dominican and relative of President Baez's minister of war as vice consul—a succession that alarmed American residents who feared partisan bias and opposition to potential U.S. naval assistance.
Según el *Daily press and Dakotaian* del 12 de enero de 1878, una incesante contienda armada convulsionaba a Santo Domingo desde hacía meses, arriesgando las vidas y haciendas de los comerciantes extranjeros sin que asomara buque militar estadounidense alguno por Puerto Plata desde el inicio de los disturbios tres meses atrás. Ante ello, el cónsul estadounidense Douglass se ausentó de la plaza, delegando la vicecancillería en un nativo dominicano emparentado con el ministro de Guerra del presidente Báez, relevo que sobresaltó a los residentes norteamericanos ante el temor a sesgos partidistas y trabas a un eventual auxilio naval de los EE. UU.

ing the revolutionary contest, which has
now prevailed in San Domingo for many
months. For sixty days preceding the date
of our latest dispatches the conflict in the
outlying districts had been almost incessant,
and scarcely a day passed without more or
less musketry firing among the warehouses
and dwellings of the foreign merchants.
The families of many of them had been
compelled to take refuge on the shipping in
the harbor, It would seem that at such a
place as this, if anywhere, the pretence or
occasional visits of a man-of-war would
have some effect to secure the lives and
property of alien residents against needless
perils and destruction yet we are informed
that no vessel of the 'American navy has
made her appearance at Puerto Plata
Bince
the last outbreak began, now more than three
months ago.
Under these circumstances, even Mr.
Douglass, the consul, has found the country
too uncomfortable to remain in it any long
er, and has come away, leaving behind him
as vice consul a native of San Domingo,
who is a relative of the minister of war
under President Baez. It is anything but
pleasing to the American residents of Pu
erto Plata to find themselves represented
by a man who must needs be influenced in
its acts by his adherence to one of the two
parties now at war for the possession of
San Domingo and the fear is expressed
that even if an American man-of-war should
come iotj the harbor, this vice consul
would try to convince the commander that
she was not needed.
CONGRESSIONAL DOINGS.
