SummaryResumen
The *Savannah morning news* reported on October 27, 1886, that Americans in Santo Domingo likely favored Gen. Herreux because he had maintained peace on the island for over six years. Although fighting was confined to the interior, the disturbances harmed American-owned sugar estates by halting labor, delaying crops, and threatening increased export taxes to pay for the revolution. Additionally, the article described Gen. Herreux as a 40-year-old negro of reported Haytian origin with a slightly Jewish cast of features, whose early life was obscure until recognized by Gen. Luperon.
El *Savannah morning news* consignó el 27 de octubre de 1886 que los estadounidenses afincados en Santo Domingo se inclinaban probablemente por el general Heureaux merced a que garantizó la tranquilidad en la isla a lo largo de más de seis años. Aun cuando las refriegas se concentraban en el interior, los disturbios perjudicaban a los ingenios azucareros de propiedad norteamericana al paralizar las faenas, retrasar las zafras y amenazar con mayores arbitrios de salida para sufragar la pacificación. Añadía el artículo una semblanza del general Heureaux como un hombre negro de 40 años, de presumible origen haitiano y fisonomía semítica, cuya juventud transcurrió en la oscuridad hasta ser promovido por el general Luperón.

it was a matter probably of indifference
to the Americans in Santo Domingo
which side would gain. Possibly they
lavored Herreux, because, no matter
what he may have done that was objection
able to the Dominicans, he certainly kept
peace on the island for over six years,
and that is an unusually big long time in
Santo Domingo. Owners ot sugar estates
(and the only prosperous ones, li any can
be said to bo prosperous, are owned by
Americans) have suffered considerably
by this disturbance. Although the
fighting was confined to the iuterior,
it was Impossible on the coast to get
laborers to work. If one did succeed in

are possibilities that the expoi t taxes may
be increased to pay the expenses of the
revolution. Thus it may be that the for

or producers in the country, will have to
pay the costs of a revolution in which
they had nothing else to look forward to,
no matter which side won.
Gen. Herreux is a man about 40 years
