SummaryResumen

Based on the provided excerpt, the newspaper reported that Mr. Baez attained the presidency through a coup d'état aided by General Cabral's relinquishment of pretensions and the armed force of Pedro Guillermo, though the majority of the nation opposed his administration. The report notes that Baez remained a Field Marshal in the pay of Spain during the struggle for independence, only resigning after the Spanish evacuation, and that his current government is persecuting and imprisoning political opponents following a recent attempt to overthrow his power at Puerto Plata.

A tenor del extracto periodístico, el rotativo expuso que el Sr. Báez accedió a la presidencia mediante un cuartelazo apuntalado por la renuncia a sus pretensiones del general Cabral y la fuerza armada de Pedro Guillermo, pese al rechazo mayoritario de la ciudadanía hacia su gestión. La noticia subrayaba que Báez conservó el rango y sueldo de mariscal de campo de España durante toda la gesta independentista, renunciando únicamente tras la evacuación peninsular, y que su actual gobierno encarcelaba y perseguía a contradictores políticos tras una reciente tentativa golpista en Puerto Plata.
