SummaryResumen
The *Essex County Herald* emphasized the strategic importance of Samana Bay as the naval key to the Caribbean, recalling President Grant's earlier annexation efforts. It reported that an unexpected revolution had seized the capital of Santo Domingo during the president's absence, complicating recent American diplomatic agreements compensating a U.S. steamship company. With the Dominican president on the run and the foreign minister sheltering in the American consulate, the paper suggested U.S. marine landings or intervention might follow.
El *Essex County Herald* subrayó la importancia estratégica de la bahía de Samaná como la llave naval del Caribe, recordando los anteriores intentos de anexión del presidente Grant. Informó que una revolución imprevista se había apoderado de la capital de Santo Domingo durante la ausencia del presidente, complicando recientes acuerdos diplomáticos estadounidenses que indemnizaban a una compañía naviera de los Estados Unidos. Con el presidente dominicano en fuga y el ministro de Relaciones Exteriores refugiado en el consulado estadounidense, el periódico sugirió que podrían producirse desembarcos de la infantería de marina de EE. UU. o una intervención militar.
