SummaryResumen

According to the January 24, 1878 issue of *The New York Herald*, the Dominican revolution continued with complicated political affairs as neither government troops nor revolutionists advanced. Additionally, a Spanish commission arrived in Santo Domingo aboard the *Alcantara* to examine a box supposed to contain the remains of Christopher Columbus, which involved breaking the seals, inspecting the bones, and taking photographs.

Según la edición del 24 de enero de 1878 de *The New York Herald*, la contienda revolucionaria dominicana proseguía en un complejo estancamiento, al no conseguir ventajas sustanciales ni las tropas del gobierno ni los contingentes rebeldes. Asimismo, una delegación española arribó a Santo Domingo en el transporte *Alcántara* para inspeccionar una urna que presuntamente custodiaba las cenizas de Cristóbal Colón, diligencia que comprendió el quebrantamiento de sellos, el examen de los restos óseos y el registro fotográfico.
