SummaryResumen
A Washington item explains that the Seward-Stevens West India fund is now exhausted: Seward spent most of $100,000 of it on his West Indies trip, and General Babcock took the remaining $150,000 to lease the Bay of Samana. It reports that Mr. Dawes, chairman of the House Committee on Appropriations, refused two senators' request for a bill to pay the rent now due to Envoy Fabens, saying he could only make appropriations authorized by law, and that Senator Sumner calls the whole proceeding without the shadow of law.
Una nota de Washington explica que el fondo Seward-Stevens para las Indias Occidentales ya se agotó: Seward gastó la mayor parte de $100,000 de ese fondo en su viaje a las Indias Occidentales, y el general Babcock tomó los $150,000 restantes para arrendar la bahía de Samana. Informa que el señor Dawes, presidente del Comité de Asignaciones de la Cámara, rechazó la petición de dos senadores de un proyecto de ley para pagar la renta ya vencida al enviado Fabens, diciendo que solo podía hacer asignaciones autorizadas por la ley, y que el senador Sumner califica todo el procedimiento como carente de toda sombra de legalidad.
