SummaryResumen

The New-York Tribune reported on the background of revolutionary operative Giordani, who had previously created confusion among shippers by setting up an unauthorized rival Dominican consulate in New York until the State Department intervened. Giordani had also operated as an unsuccessful lobbyist opposing the Dominican treaty and was a prominent supporter of former Dominican President Juan Isidro Jimenez. His activities and arrest were compared to the earlier case of Captain Boynton involving revolutionary currency schemes.

The New-York Tribune informó sobre los antecedentes del conspirador revolucionario Giordani, quien anteriormente había provocado desorden entre las navieras al instalar en Nueva York un consulado dominicano rival y no autorizado hasta que intervino el Departamento de Estado. Giordani también había actuado sin éxito como cabildero opositor al tratado dominicano y era un destacado partidario del expresidente dominicano Juan Isidro Jimenes. Sus actividades y arresto fueron comparados con el caso anterior del capitán Boynton relativo a planes monetarios revolucionarios.

way as Dominican Consu General. He issued

counter instructions to ex orters. The existence

of the two consulates for the same republic was

a source of great annoyance to shippers, but

also a source of considerable amusement to the

general public.

Finally, however, the State Department at

Washington settled things by refusing to recog

nize Giordani and he was deprived of the en

jovment of the fat fees he had expected.

Giordani's activity in Dominican politics also

led him into the ways of the lobby. He repre

sented here an element in Santo Domingo that

was opposed to the Dominican treaty with the

United States and in his influential way consti

tuted himself a lobby of one to work agahst the

measure in Washington and New York, but, of

course, without success.

SAVED TIVE LIVES.

the Dominican Republic. He was an ardent sup

porter of General Juan Isidro Jiménez, former

President of Santo Domingo, and always a ready

aid in the latter's many filibustering enterprises.

The prisoner is a man of about fifty years ot

age, of short stature, and with his light colored

beard looks more like a Frenchman than a na

tive of the West Indies.

The case of Giordani is analogous to the chi

merical plan charged a year or so ago against

Captain Boynten, the original of Richard Hard

ing Davis's “Soldier of Fortune” hero. Captain

Boynton was arrested by Secret Service officials

charged with counterfeiting Venezuelan money.

He declared that this money also was to be used

for revolutionary purposes.

It was during the Jiminez-Morales revolution
