SummaryResumen

A Senate speech charges that Baez was sustained in power by the United States Navy while the annexation voting proceeded, citing a dispatch of March 19, 1870 placing the Severn at Santo Domingo, the Swatara sent to Samana, the Nantasket to Puerto Plata and the Yantic in the river, and an official's sworn testimony that the navy's acts were protecting Baez from the citizens of St. Domingo. It also tells how the American citizen Davis Hatch was arrested on a trumped-up charge and, even after his formal pardon, kept in prison at the instance of Cazneau and with Fabens's connivance to prevent his opposition to the treaty, as a Dominican minister's note admitted his imprisonment was only to prevent his hostile action in New York.

Un discurso en el Senado acusa que Baez fue sostenido en el poder por la Marina de los Estados Unidos mientras se realizaba la votación sobre la anexión, citando un despacho del 19 de marzo de 1870 que situaba al Severn en Santo Domingo, al Swatara enviado a Samana, al Nantasket a Puerto Plata y al Yantic en el río, y el testimonio jurado de un funcionario de que los actos de la Marina protegían a Baez de los ciudadanos de Santo Domingo. También relata cómo el ciudadano americano Davis Hatch fue arrestado con un cargo inventado y, aun después de su perdón formal, mantenido en prisión a instancias de Cazneau y con la complicidad de Fabens para impedir su oposición al tratado, pues una nota de un ministro dominicano admitió que su encarcelamiento era solo para impedir su acción hostil en Nueva York.
