SummaryResumen

The Abilene Weekly Reflector reported that the Dominican modus vivendi established in March 1905 successfully placed an American collector in charge and deposited 55 percent of customs revenues in New York, totaling $3,000,000. Despite President Morales being ousted and replaced by General Caceres, the Dominican government enjoyed historic fiscal surpluses, acquired four American-built coast guard cutters, and curtailed smuggling. Following revisions by Secretary Root after objections to the original pact, the ratified treaty was prepared for implementation.

The Abilene Weekly Reflector informó que el modus vivendi dominicano establecido en marzo de 1905 colocó exitosamente a un recaudador estadounidense al frente y depositó el 55 por ciento de las rentas aduaneras en Nueva York, alcanzando un total de 3.000.000 de dólares. A pesar de que el presidente Morales fue depuesto y sustituido por el general Cáceres, el gobierno dominicano gozó de superávits fiscales históricos, adquirió cuatro guardacostas de fabricación estadounidense y frenó el contrabando. Tras las enmiendas introducidas por el secretario Root a raíz de las objeciones al pacto original, el tratado ratificado quedó preparado para su puesta en ejecución.

ment gave place March 31, 1905, to a

modus Vivendi which has operated up

to this time. This placed an American

collector In charge and provided for

the deposit in New Tork of 65 per

cent of the customs receipts for the

beneist of the Dominican creditors.

The modus Vivendi did not save Mor

ales from political destruction, for he

was overcome and deported by the

revolutionists and his vice president,

General Caceres, Installed as presi

dent But the modus Vivendi did re

sult very beneficially so far as the

little republic's finances were con

cerned. For not only did It lead to

the deposit in New Tork of 33,000,000

which will now be placed to the credit

of the Dominican government, but that

government has had more available

money during the period of operation

of the modus Vivendi than at any oth

er time In its history. This state of

affairs resulted from a more economi

cal administration, the suppression of

smuggling and the encouragement of

business. The Dominican government

also ffntts Itself In possession of four

fine coastguard cutters built in the

United States and forming an effec

tive force for the protection of the

customs revenues and available for all

nubile usts.

The substance of the modus Vivendi

In the shape of a treaty pending before

the United States Senate when Secre

tary Root assumed office. Recogniz

ing tbe fort of the objections that d

veloned to Its ratification, he set

about recasting the document and

February 1) last the treaty which has

Just been ratified was submitted to

the Senate. The way had been paved
