SummaryResumen

According to the newspaper excerpt, eight to ten thousand Dominicans were in arms against Spanish troops, having burned Santiago to dislodge the Spaniards, while Spaniards burned Puerto Plata to deny refuge to natives. Foreigners reportedly handled all the business for both sides and stood to be the only ones with money when the war ended. Additionally, a report at San Cristobal stated the United States consul had a document that would benefit the U.S., following a failed Spanish military movement where the occupying force turned back upon hearing the enemy was accumulating ahead.

Según el extracto periodístico, entre ocho y diez mil dominicanos se encontraban en armas contra las tropas españolas tras haber incendiado Santiago para desalojar a los peninsulares, mientras que los españoles quemaron Puerto Plata para privar de refugio a los patriotas. Trascendió que los extranjeros canalizaban el comercio de ambos contendientes y apuntaban a ser los únicos beneficiados económicamente al concluir la guerra. Además, un informe de San Cristóbal señalaba que el cónsul de los Estados Unidos poseía un pliego favorable a su nación, tras un fallido repliegue militar español donde la fuerza expedicionaria retrocedió al conocerse la concentración de tropas enemigas al frente.
