SummaryResumen
The *New York Herald* reported on a past scheme led primarily by England and Spain to establish a new power called the Confederation of the Antilles, which would unite St. Domingo, Cuba, Jamaica, and other West India islands to counter rapidly developing American interests. According to the article, General Báez expressed sympathy for the islanders' independence and noted that while St. Domingo harbored sympathies for Spain, Cubans living in St. Domingo opposed his government because he refused to violate neutrality laws by fitting out expeditions against Spain.

Según el artículo, el general Báez expresó simpatía por la independencia de los isleños y señaló que, si bien Santo Domingo albergaba simpatías hacia España, los cubanos residentes en Santo Domingo se oponían a su gobierno porque se negaba a infringir las leyes de neutralidad pertrechando expediciones contra España.

Hiat was set on loot some years ago with the obiect
of establishing a new Power, to be called tha
I'outederatlon oi the Antilles. It was not decided
whether this new nation in embryo should be a
kingdom or a republic. That was to be leit to tha
decision of an inter-insular conveutlou oi notables.
It was understood that St. Domingo. Cuba.
Jamaica and the other adjacent. West India Islands
were to lorm this Power in project. England would
probably cede Jamaica and Spain part with Cubs
lor tills purpose, seeing that the realization of the
scheme could be converted into a powerful lever
to t?e resolutely poised against rapidly developing
American interests in the West Indies. England
and Spain, principally the former, were conceded
to lie the prime movers in tins scheme.
When asked about me prospecin 01 ruoauenerai
Baez expressed his sympathy with tho islanders
and showed a desire that they should Oe independent.
in st Domingo there are sympathies for
Spain as a nat ion. The Oeneral hlmseli had served

Cubans who live in St. Domingo were opposed to
his government because he did not.irive them tho
means to lit out expeditions against Spain. They
wanted him to sro to Cuba in person, lie could
not accede to such demands. They would bring

which St. Domingo conld not afford to break. Tho
