SummaryResumen

*The New York Herald* reported that Dominican support for Spanish annexation had proven illusory as insurgent forces besieged Spanish authorities in Santo Domingo and established a provisional government in Santiago. Spanish garrisons faced heavy combat and casualties, the Spanish governor retreated to ships, and General Santana fled to the woods of Azua under pursuit by insurgent commanders.

*The New York Herald* informó que el respaldo dominicano a la anexión española resultó ser ilusorio, toda vez que las fuerzas insurrectas sitiaron a las autoridades peninsulares en Santo Domingo e instauraron un gobierno provisional en Santiago. Las guarniciones españolas afrontaron duros combates y abundantes bajas, el gobernador español se replegó a los buques y el general Santana huyó a los montes de Azua perseguido por los jefes insurrectos.
