SummaryResumen

Based on the provided excerpt, the newspaper reported that the American Government issued an ultimatum to the Haytian Government demanding the return of any exactions made upon American subjects, backed by a threat of war if the treaty's execution is opposed. In the Dominican Republic, Mr. Espaillat was successfully elected to the presidency by an overwhelming majority, a reported rising in Azua proved to be a minor riot, and the nation remains in perfect tranquility while organizing the new government.

En la República Dominicana, el Sr. Espaillat resultó elegido presidente por una abrumadora mayoría, un reportado alzamiento en Azua resultó ser una reyerta insignificante y la nación permanece en perfecta calma mientras se organiza la nueva administración.

any Amcrican suiject, since the promul

returned.

The American Government have found it

necossaty to back this dewandyby a show

of force; and it would appear that that

GGovernment is not altogether disinclined

to carry the threat of the use of force into

exccution. They have, it i stated, said to

the Haytian Government that if there be

any objection to the carrying out of the

treaty, such objection will be considered

as a declaration of war. This demand

Mr. EspaiLLaT has been successfully

elected to the Presidency by an over

risiug in Azua proved to be nothing above

in fact 1t is stated that it was nothing

more than a slight riot.

throughtout the Dominican Republic, and

the work of organizing the new Gover
