SummaryResumen

The *San Francisco Call* reported that European investors held approximately $21,000,000 in Dominican bonds, with major portions distributed across Belgium, France, Holland, and Germany. French authorities announced they would not immediately enforce debt claims by force, though French bondholders expressed deep disappointment over the United States Senate's delay in ratifying the customs treaty. The report highlighted that interest payments on the 1897 unified debt had been in default since April 1899.

El informe subrayó que el pago de intereses de la deuda unificada de 1897 se encontraba en mora desde abril de 1899.
