SummaryResumen

The *New-York Tribune* reported on December 19, 1873, that the provisional government of Santo Domingo held only 500 soldiers divided between Santo Domingo City and Azua, while the rest of the island was in a state of revolution though business remained uninterrupted. According to a private letter from the American Consul at Santo Domingo City, Baez's followers grew despondent upon learning that Puerto Plata had turned against him. Additionally, official documents indicated the Provisional Government desired to fulfill the treaty with the Samana Bay Company and guaranteed all rights granted under it.

El *New-York Tribune* dio cuenta el 19 de diciembre de 1873 de que el gobierno provisional de Santo Domingo apenas disponía de 500 soldados repartidos entre la capital y Azua, hallándose el resto del territorio en abierta insurrección si bien la actividad comercial continuaba sin trastornos. Conforme a una carta particular del cónsul estadounidense en la ciudad de Santo Domingo, los adictos a Báez cayeron en el desaliento al enterarse del pronunciamiento de Puerto Plata en su contra. Por lo demás, testimonios oficiales señalaban que el gobierno provisional aspiraba a respetar el tratado con la Samaná Bay Company y garantizaba plenamente las prerrogativas otorgadas al amparo del mismo.

and only 300 at Azua, and in order to make any de-

fomse at all it will be necessary to concentrate theses

500 men at Santo Domingo City, leaving Azna nnde-

fended. All the island, with the exception of the

two above-mentioned points, is in a state of revolu-

tion, and yet perfect order reigns and business is un

interrupted, except where the provisional troops are

moving. A private letter is at the present time in

this city from the American Consul at Santo Do-

mingo City, and in which it was stated that, directly

it was known that Puerta Plata had decided against

Baez, a general despoudency prevailed among his

followers.

1t is understood that the Provisional Government

is not opposed to the treaty that has been made

with the Samana Bay Company, but are, instead,

desirous of fulfilling every stipulation made therein.

In support of this statement, official documents are

reported to be already in this city, informing the

Company of the favorable consideration of the Pro-

visional Government and guaranteeing them all the

rights granted under the treaty.
