SummaryResumen

On April 27, 1868, the *New York Herald* reported that Dominican commissioner Mr. Fabens and Curaçao banker Señor Jesurun arrived in Havana en route to Washington to negotiate the sale of the Bay of Samaná and a loan secured by Dominican customs revenues. Meanwhile, the people of Santo Domingo were reportedly exasperated with the Baez administration—which was imprisoning adversaries and suspected of planning to abscond with state funds—and a revolution expected to elevate General Luperon or ex-President Cabral was imminent. Additionally, reports of specie arriving for the Samaná purchase were contradicted, and it was believed the Baez party was acting in concert with President Salnave of Haiti.

El 27 de abril de 1868, *The New York Herald* comunicó que el comisionado dominicano señor Fabens y el banquero de Curazao señor Jesurun arribaron a La Habana rumbo a Washington con miras a negociar la venta de la bahía de Samaná y un empréstito garantizado por los ingresos de las aduanas dominicanas. Entretanto, la ciudadanía de Santo Domingo se hallaba indignada con la administración de Báez —la cual encarcelaba adversarios y era sospechosa de preparar el desfalco del tesoro público—, vislumbrándose una inminente revuelta que encumbraría al general Luperón o al expresidente Cabral. Se desmintió por otra parte el rumor sobre la llegada de numerario para la adquisición de Samaná, presumiéndose que los partidarios de Báez obraban de acuerdo con el presidente Salnave de Haití.
