SummaryResumen
The *Evening journal* reported that Horace G. Knowles fled Santo Domingo under cover of darkness after receiving an urgent warning from former Dominican Minister Francisco J. Peynado that his safety was threatened. Knowles maintained that such mistreatment of an American citizen illustrated the harsher conditions suffered by native Dominicans under military rule. He explained that he had stayed behind to collect fifty depositions for the Senate inquiry but was barred from delivering the witness list to Senator McCormick aboard the transport ship *Argonne*.

Explicó que se había quedado para recopilar cincuenta declaraciones para la investigación senatorial, pero se le impidió entregar la lista de testigos al senador McCormick a bordo del buque de transporte *Argonne*.
