SummaryResumen

The *Wichita Daily Eagle* reported conflicting accounts regarding an armed expedition led by General Juan Isidro Jimenes against Dominican President Heureaux. While the Dominican consul claimed the insurgents were defeated at Monte Cristi, other reports stated the rebels had landed munitions from the *Fanita* and were marching toward Puerto Plata and Santiago de los Caballeros. The paper described Jimenes as an influential merchant and former presidential heir who had long avoided Heureaux's violent crackdowns on political rivals.

El *Wichita Daily Eagle* informó sobre versiones contradictorias relativas a una expedición armada encabezada por el general Juan Isidro Jimenes contra el presidente dominicano Heureaux. Mientras el cónsul dominicano aseguraba que los insurgentes habían sido derrotados en Monte Cristi, otros informes señalaban que los rebeldes habían desembarcado pertrechos desde el *Fanita* y marchaban hacia Puerto Plata y Santiago de los Caballeros. El diario describió a Jimenes como un influyente comerciante e hijo de un antiguo mandatario que durante largo tiempo había evadido las violentas represalias de Heureaux contra sus rivales políticos.
