SummaryResumen
According to the *Chicago Daily Tribune* of October 10, 1863, the Dominican people are fiercely rebelling against Spanish rule following President Santana's annexation of the country to Spain. The newspaper reports that Spanish forces have suffered significant defeats—including a routed division of 3,000 men with over 1,000 casualties and the capitulation and retreat from Santiago—amid a conflict marked by mutual atrocities and the burning of towns such as San Carlos. Additionally, while the Dominicans reportedly receive sympathy and support from neighboring islands and the Unitedest States, the article questions their capacity for self-government due to past deficiencies in vigor and cohesion.
Según el *Chicago Daily Tribune* del 10 de octubre de 1863, el pueblo dominicano se subleva con ferocidad contra el dominio español tras la anexión del país a España efectuada por el presidente Santana. El periódico consigna que las tropas españolas han sufrido considerables reveses —entre ellos una división dispersada de 3.000 hombres con más de 1.000 bajas, así como la capitulación y evacuación de Santiago— en el curso de una contienda signada por atrocidades recíprocas y el incendio de poblaciones como San Carlos. Además, si bien se señala que los dominicanos reciben la simpatía y el respaldo de islas vecinas y de los Estados Unidos, el artículo pone en duda su capacidad de autogobierno debido a su pasada falta de vigor y cohesión.

France, a treaty with that power was con
cluded In 1848, and with Great Britain two
years later. For a time they enjoyed a con
siderable degree of prosperity, but through
the treachery of President Santana the rights
and liberties of the people were sold to Bpain
and the act of annexation consummated.
Against Spain they now rebel, the' Domini
cans displaying an earnestness and unanimity
which gives promise of a long and desperate
struggle before the imperial authority can bo
re-established. Our latest advices speak of
the conflict as going on with unabated fury.
Two divisions of Spanish troops, together
numbering 3,0 00 men, had been routed with
a loss of more than 1,000 killed and wounded.
One division of 3,000 men were repulsed in
an open attack. The other entered Santiago,
but were compelled to capitulate, after the
city had been burnt, and it was on the retreat
to Puerto Plata that, in disregard of condi
tions previously agreed upon, the Spaniards
were fired upon with deadly effect. The
town of San Carlos, in the neighborhood of
of Santo Domingo City, was also said to have
been burned by the rebels. -According to re
port, fearful atrocities have been committed,
by both sides.
The Dominicans evidently have the sympa
thies of the neighboring islands not under
Spanish Jurisdiction, and it is charged that
they ore receiving substantial comfort from
sympathizers in the United States However
this may be, it is not cerfain the Dominicans
are capable of self-government In former
experience they lacked vigor and cohesion.
