Passage summaryResumen del pasaje

Based on the provided excerpt, commissioners reported that President Báez's condition in Santo Domingo required the annexation question to be disposed of at the earliest practicable moment. In response, a Republican Senator prepared a resolution—which several Republican Senators favor—declaring Congress opposed to annexation to avoid negotiating a new treaty. Additionally, the President invited Frederick Douglass to a Santo Domingo Commission dinner, though Douglass ultimately did not attend.

A juzgar por el extracto, los comisionados informaron que la precaria situación del presidente Báez en Santo Domingo exigía resolver la cuestión de la anexión en el plazo más breve posible. En contestación, un senador republicano preparó una resolución —favorecida por varios correligionarios en el Senado— declarando la oposición del Congreso a la anexión para excusar la negociación de un nuevo tratado. Se agregó además que el presidente invitó a Frederick Douglass a una cena de la Comisión de Santo Domingo, si bien Douglass finalmente no concurrió.
