More on Samaná BayMás sobre Bahía de Samaná

SummaryResumen

The Sun argues that Mr. Baez does not seem to understand that the annexation treaty has been rejected by the Senate and the alternative treaty for leasing Samana Bay has lapsed, so the United States is not bound to pay him a second year's rent. It calls Samana a poor and unhealthy harbor where coal costs eighty-five dollars a ton, against twelve dollars at St. Thomas, and contrasts the $150,000 rent Baez asks with the $5,000 a year the United States pays for a coaling wharf at St. Thomas.

The Sun argumenta que el Sr. Báez no parece comprender que el tratado de anexión ha sido rechazado por el Senado y que el tratado alternativo para arrendar la bahía de Samaná ha caducado, por lo que los Estados Unidos no están obligados a pagarle un segundo año de renta. Califica a Samaná como un puerto malo e insalubre donde el carbón cuesta ochenta y cinco dólares la tonelada, frente a doce dólares en St. Thomas, y contrasta los $150,000 de renta que pide Báez con los $5,000 al año que los Estados Unidos pagan por un muelle carbonero en St. Thomas.
