SummaryResumen

The commissioners' report describes the island's navigable rivers and its three great bays, Samana, Azua and Manzanillo, and calls Samana a powerful military and naval station whose future under United States authority would be of national importance. It then sets out the Dominican government's finances, giving a total of $1,565,831 in debt and claims, together with the government's income for 1869, and states the commissioners' belief that the statement includes every obligation for which the republic could be held liable, while noting that some claims appear questionable.

El informe de los comisionados describe los ríos navegables de la isla y sus tres grandes bahías, Samaná, Azua y Manzanillo, y califica a Samaná como una poderosa estación militar y naval cuyo futuro bajo la autoridad de los Estados Unidos sería de importancia nacional. A continuación expone las finanzas del gobierno dominicano, con un total de $1,565,831 en deudas y reclamaciones, junto con los ingresos del gobierno en 1869, y declara la convicción de los comisionados de que el estado incluye toda obligación por la que la república pudiera ser responsable, señalando a la vez que algunas reclamaciones parecen cuestionables.
