Passage summaryResumen del pasaje

The Times Dispatch reported that Dominican fiscal revenues were estimated at an unprecedented $3,948,300, leaving a surplus for government use that exceeded the republic's total revenues from four years prior after bond obligations were paid. Customs Receiver Pulliam commended President Ramon Caceres upon his inauguration for a six-year term, citing his wide popularity and military background. Pulliam concluded that stabilized finances and Caceres's administration provided a strong guarantee against domestic unrest.

El receptor de aduanas Pulliam encomió al presidente Ramón Cáceres al asumir su mandato de seis años, citando su amplia popularidad y sus antecedentes militares. Pulliam concluyó que las finanzas estabilizadas y la administración de Cáceres constituían una sólida garantía frente a la agitación interna.
