SummaryResumen

An individual interviewed by the newspaper disputed a prior *New York Times* report regarding Mr. Lamar, asserting that Lamar received a fair trial and competent legal representation after killing a man in self-defense in San Domingo. Additionally, the source stated that the island's primary need is capital, noting that New York capitalists are currently considering propositions to establish a local bank and build a railroad to develop the interior.

Un interlocutor entrevistado por el rotativo rebatió una crónica anterior de *The New York Times* relativa al Sr. Lamar, sosteniendo que este disfrutó de un juicio con todas las garantías y de una adecuada defensa letrada tras ultimar a un individuo en legítima defensa en Santo Domingo. Aseguró por añadidura la fuente que la necesidad primordial de la isla radica en allegar capitales, manifestando que financieros neoyorquinos evalúan a la sazón propuestas para instituir una entidad bancaria local y construir un ferrocarril de fomento hacia las comarcas del interior.
