SummaryResumen

General Hyppolite denied purchasing the Gatling guns and rifles aboard the *Ozama*, which were invoiced by Schuyler, Hartley & Graham without disclosing the buyer's name, thereby dispelling rumors that the weapons were destined for Puerto Plata for Dominicans anticipating war with Hayti. Meanwhile, anxiety persisted at the Haytian Consulate regarding delayed shipping news, and a separate report detailed Lieutenant E. W. Deering's account that an armed crew of twenty-five men under Captain Henry Williams had been sent to Hayti aboard the *Alene* on December 8 with sealed orders to take possession of the steamer *Haytien Republic*.

El general Hyppolite negó haber adquirido las ametralladoras Gatling y la fusilería embarcadas en el *Ozama*, facturadas por la razón social Schuyler, Hartley & Graham sin consignar el nombre del comprador, desvirtuando los rumores que daban por seguro que el armamento marchaba a Puerto Plata para pertrechar a dominicanos prestos a una contienda con Haití. Entretanto, persistía la incertidumbre en el consulado haitiano ante la falta de noticias marítimas, consignando un despacho independiente el informe del teniente E. W. Deering de que veinticinco marineros armados al mando del capitán Henry Williams partieron hacia Haití en el vapor *Alene* el 8 de diciembre con pliegos reservados para apoderarse del *Haytien Republic*.

General Hyppolite, who came north on a visit”

recently, and who has been staying at the Stevens

House, will return as a passenger on the Ozama,

le declared yesterday that he had not purchased

the Gatling guns and rifles. They were invoiced

by Schuyler, Hartley Graham, who refused to

disclose the name of the purchaser.

This disposes of the rumor published yesterday

that the Ozama was to land these arms at Puerto

Plata, presumably for the Dominicans, who an-

ticipated war with layti through the aggressive-

ness of President Heraux, of Santo Domingo. At

the Ilaytian Consulate there was much anxiety for

news from Hayti, and the report that the sgeamer

Prinz Mauritz did not sail from Jacmel

until Sunday, and would probably not arrive here

hefore Saturday, seemed disturbing.

A story was published yesterday, on the author-

ity of Lieutenant E. W. Deering, a passenger on

the steamer Alene, respecting the alleged sending

by Pim, Forwood (Co., agents of the Atlas Line,

acting in concert with Minister Preston, of a crew

of twenty-five picked men to Hayti on the Alene

on December 8, for the purpose of taking possession

of th steamer Haytien Republi, thus removing

the provocation to war and preventing the hom

hardment of Port-nu-Prince by the Yantic and

Galena. This erew was headed by Captain Henry

Williams, it is said, an ex-English naval officer,

ond was well supplied with firearms and ammuni-

tion, Captain Williams received sealed orders,

which were not opened until the ship was twp days

out. On opening the package he found a letter
