SummaryResumen
The *Gazette* reported that a Haitian cabinet minister arrived in Washington stating that between 3,000 and 5,000 Haitians had been killed in Dominican territory since October 5, demanding reparations and punishment for those responsible. Dominican officials had previously claimed minimal casualties, attributing the friction to Dominican resentment over an influx of unemployed Haitians seeking agricultural work. The Haitian minister met with Acting Secretary of State Sumner Welles and attended tea with President Roosevelt during his visit.
