that Ingalls,, Babcock, Fabius, Cozneau
and Delmonte, had formed apartnershir
with Baez in great speculations. Hart
mort, OF course, found In these men able
co-operators in the project of getting San
Domingo annexed to the United States
as indispensable to the success Of theil
speculations.
Accordingly, just at the time Babcock
was taking the first steps toward an an.
nexation treaty with Baez Hartmont was
negotiating this loan in London for the
purpose ofgetting funds to use at Wash
ington in behalf Of annexation. The
loan was to be secured by the proceed 9
of guano and customs, and to be made
at 10 cents on the dollar with six per
cent. interest. Hartmont received ST..
$50, 445 in cash on this loan of which he
got 100000 for outlays, risks and COM
missions. The San Domingo Govern
ment got s25O,O0O: Hartmont also re-
tanned $4,000 in his own bonds as Sc.
curity for damages on his San Domingo
concessions in consequence OF the fail
ure ofthe annexation scheme.
What officials received bribes out OF
this fund is not known; but it helps to
account for the extraordinary zeal which
certain Congressman, who had no share
in the speculation, took in the scheme
when before Congress. 1t will be re-
membered that Sumner was cast QUE of
the Committee on Foreign Relations in
consequence Of his opposition to it.
Hartmont went to Washington to work
lor the job, and he swears that he spent
in New York and Washington $17O, 900 OF
this money.
President Grant seems TO have either
been taken into partnership in the San
Domingo speculation, or to have re-.
ceived literally Of this fund. His extra
ordinary zeal in behalf of annexation,
which led him to prostitute his official
position by becoming lobby member in
its behalf, and the foul wrong done to
Sumner, together with the outrage upon
Senatorial freedom of speech, all of
which was instigated by Grant, can not
be accounted for on any other hypothe-
sis. These arrant and unscrupulous
speculatos made the President their
tool. They 80 thoroughly bought him up
that he sent ships-of-war to the Island
contrary to the laws OF nations, and for
the sole purpose of maintaining Baez III
the position to which he had no right.
They wanted Baez TO treat with.
This is one Of the black chapters in. the
history of late corruptions. Babcock
and Ingalls, stepped from the San Do
mingo swindle into the District OF Col
umbia plunder, in which they were sus-
tanned by the President. The annexa-
lion of San Domingo having failed, Baez
repudiated the London loan. Morally,
and through the President, our Govern
ment is responsible for this plunder of
British citizens. Baez would not have
been i'll position to command this con-
hdence had it not been for our illegal
support o! him.

MORE FACTS IN THE HISTORY OF
OEEICIIL R4SCAIITY

OFF1ClAL lGAoCALA1x.
1t will be remembered that during the
San Domingo controversy in Congress,
THE STAR kept it constantly before the
people as one OF the most outrageous oil
the many enormous swindles of the past
ten years. We were probably consid-
cred little wild on this subject. The
press generally was tame about it,
Some were willing to let annexation go
on because it was scheme so dear to
Grant, while others who disliked Grant
considered annexation as part of the
"manifest destiny" OF the great repub.
lie. The claim also that we needed an
ocean harbor for our ships and for sup.
plies in times Of war, together with the
patriotic idea of taking the island out oil
the reach of foreign powers, which might
be greatly accommodated by it in times
Of hostility to this country, induced
many to only wink at any corruption
there might be in the job.
Not so with THE STAR. Sumner was
the Senator who denounced and de-
feated the swindle; but Sumner was
always treated by the press as an sim.
practicable statesman" Facts now ap.
pear which completely vindicate Mr..
Summers wisdom; though, in our opin.
Ion, it needs no vindicatioA.
Strange to say, the San Domingo busi.
ness involved the English Commons in
an investigation. A committee was ap.
pointed to inquire into The oircum.
stances under which certain foreign
loans had been placed on the London
market, and loan to Baez-the hum.
bug President of San Domingo, whom
President Grant kept in power by the
mid of our men-ofwar-was one Of the
number inquired into.
The Committee reported on the 18th oil
April, and from their report it appears
that San Domingo loan OF fTb7,7OO, OF
I3,TSs, 800, was placed in London by the
agency Of one Hartmont. who, as agent
pf the firm Of Soptford d Tileston, who
had an Office in New York, ingratiated
: himself in the affections of Baez, and
persuaded him into the notion of making
Duch loan. Hartmont had secured fol
himself concessions on the Island ol

Mr.. Morton in the Senate Yesterday intro
duced his constitutional amendment of last
session to abolish the electoral college and
allow the President and Vice President to be
elected by direct popular vote also, a bill
prescribing the method OF counting the cleo
toral vote by both houses of Congress. That
the present system OF counting the vote by
Congress Is fraught with grave danger can
hardly bedoubted. Mr.. Thurman In a speech
delivered last session on the subject said the
present method made a bloody revolution
possible every four years, for the reason that
under II the popular will iSliable to be de-
fed by the action of one house or the other
The constitution says that the President OF
the Senate shall open the votes, "and they
shall be counted" in the presence of both
houses. IL is strangely silent as to who
shall count the votes. This, however, is per-
haps not the most serious defect in the pre-
sent system. AS yet not a single state has
provided any method for cOntesting the cleo
tion of electors, aud though frauds of the
most glaring description may occur there is
no power in the constitution to prevent the
electors certified by the state authorities
from casting the vote OF the state. The
members of the two houses of Congress when
the votes are opened and counted are present
simply witnesses, aud whatever irregu-
larity there may be on the face OF the returns,
can do nothing. In the event Of two sets of
electoral votes. as in the case of Louisiana
at the last election, The President of the Sen
ate seems to be vested with sole authority
and discretion, and there is no power 10 cor
rect 1t. In six cases in our history the Vice
President himself who counted the votes
was a candidate for election. In 1881, Van
Buren, counted the votes and declared him
self elected President, and in 1851 John C..
Breckenridge counted the votes, he being a
candidate. Under the present method, if
either house make any objection 10 the
counting of the vote OF any state the vote
must be rejected. The election is therefore
liable to be thrown into the House, where
the votiI z is by states, and large states like
New York, with 5,0O1,0O0 of people, would
have no larger representation tnan Nevada,
with but u coo souls. In proof of the unfair
ness of an election by the House, it may be
stated that in 1924 Adams was elected Presi-
dent by that body when he really received
but one third OF the popular vote.
