acknowledged and disoredted said to be css than three
millions This question, however, will rot be DECIDED
until the text OF the Report ia made public In regard
TO the terms upon which treaty Of annexation can
he negotiated between Baez and the United states the
Commissioners had conversation with the President
Tie freely acknowledged that he absolutely ndhep
essy in the power OF the United States; that he could
not long sustain himself; that he had given
everything the Republic possessed, and II the Commits
soners could find anything they could take it, that
he could not dictate terms; that If the United States
would pay his debts (meaning the debts OF the Republc,
he could demand nothing else. and that, finally, he
would accept of the terms granted before salts
factory, namely 81 100000 The report OF the Commits
s0ners the subject OF the rivers harbOrs 9nd bays,
which the resolutions call for will probably be similar to
the facts obtained in the several Biographies and aliases
OF the country, no bays, harbors, rivers,
have been discovered The concessions 10 individuals,
companies &c. OF grants of lands and privileges are few
in number and unimpOTtant, except one. that 10 the
NewYork Geographical Company of one hfth OF all the
public lands for making surveys, maps &c. Some others
Of little consequence have been made, but none
whatever TO Gen. BabcOck or to any Of
the Presidents's friends. These tho facts
although it is unnecessary TO give them,
nobody reasonably believe that President Grant
any of his household is interested pccuariy in any
matters relating to the island President Baez, 1t true
made tender Of large tract Of land This object not
known to Gen. BabcOck, and this Baez has confessed
But Gen. BabcOck Indignantly declined, and thus the
matter stands The only subject of importance upon
which the Commission is required to report not alluded
to above Is that OF the boundary between Hayti ana
santo Domingo This is question that Will probably ex-
cite much discussion before it Is settled but settlement
not at all necessary before annexation Mr.. Wade and
Dr. Howe have decided to prepare the report and have
it ready to submit to the President as soon they ar
rive in Washington. There Is reason to believe that
President White will not concur in the views Of the other
commissioners.

amount Of nearly S5OOOO0 on account Of arms NUM-
tions Of war; and ship which he furnished Baez
about the year 1857, during ms struggle with San
tana. The Domiuicans deny the debt, but the
claimant processes his ability TO prove it, and to
show that he has been paid something on account
WHY BAEz DESIRES ANNEXATION.
But if the United States Government determines
to buy this Republic you must not be surprised 10
find Baez himself pooketng most of the purchase
money. All the Dominican officials are said to be
heavy creditors of the State None of them are paid
at present-for the very good reason that there is
nothing to pay them with. The soldiers beg in the
streets even before the headquarters of the army;
hut you may be there heavy arrears OF back
pay charged in every mans account, nom
the private mp TO the President. III we vote
Sl5OOOOO for the purchase of Santo Domingo, andlet
Baez disburse it, the first debts to be paid Will be
the accumulated salaries Of the Oiticeholders. That
will be a fine thing for the Presidents family, for
they are all in Office. The Deputy-CollectOr and
one other officer at the capital are the Presidents
sons The Governor of the city is his brother. A
second brother is a general. half brother is Gov
ernor of Azua. brother-in-law is Secretary Of
State So you see it is perfectly natural that Pres-
dent Bacz should want to have the handling of the
money in order to defeat fraudulent claims"
Beautiful and fertile as the country is with its fine
climate its varied productions and lis facilities for
getting market, little hope for il except under
the shelter of the United States. Bacz is popular
but his government is its last legs, bankrupt IN
purse, and unable to do anything for the suffering
and destitute people Nothing sustains IT no" ou'
the hope of annexation. If that is lost speedy rev
olution is almost certain. Every man IN the ne
public is liable TO be drawn for military service III
ridiculous hut interminabe war, and as the soiueiS
are not paid conscription means starvation oon ior
the soldier and his family. The popular distress Is
intolerable. Bacz is perhaps as good as anybody
else in Santo Domingo and better than Cabral; but
the door people are tired of both they want nothing
now but peace and security.
