SummaryResumen

The *Sunbury American* reported that the British Consul submitted a powerful protest against the Dominican Government after the Hamburg Consul appealed to him regarding insults he received. The newspaper also detailed that U.S. Vice Commercial Agent Mr. Rothe was deprived of his exequatur without warning, and his house—flying the American flag—was forcibly entered by armed soldiers who carried away a piano. Furthermore, the report noted that Mr. Rothe filed a protest, sending copies to his chief, Mr. Jonathan Elliott, and to the Department in Washington.

El *Sunbury American* consignó que el cónsul británico elevó una enérgica queja contra el gobierno dominicano tras recurrir a su mediación el cónsul de Hamburgo por ultrajes inferidos a su persona. El rotativo puntualizaba que al viceagente comercial de Estados Unidos, Sr. Rothe, le fue retirado el exequátur intempestivamente, siendo allanada su morada —pese a arbolar la insignia estadounidense— por piquetes armados que se llevaron un piano. Añadía que Rothe formuló solemne protesta, remitiendo testimonios a su superior, Sr. Jonathan Elliott, y a la cancillería en Washington.
