DELFT RELEAsED-THE CHARGES
AGAINST HER.


The steamship Carondelet loaded with Parrot and
other cannon Remington rines and ammunition which
the Haytlan Minister feels satisfied erc to DO landed
At Havt while the shippers maintain that they arc
for santo Domingo, lay ~ anchor In the Upper SAY
throughout yesterday with tho United States harshas
on board She, however, was found Oy Captah
ToEler OF the revenue cutter Manhattan to be lylns
outside OF the anchorage limits and no had her re-
moved a halfmle further from the channel AZ the
Ilsytian Consulate all OF the officials were tranquil,
while those having an interest IN the vessels charter
and her cargo, tho acknowledged friends OF General
Hyppolite were annoyed because the United states
Government had presumed TO Interfere.
Not only has the vessel been lbeIled because OF
having on board munitions OF war which arc alleged
10 be for the rebels against Government with which
tho United States Is under treaty obligations but there
Is threat OF prosecuting the captain aud owners for
loading powder without having the warning nag dis
played.
/. julia tho Dominican Consul, who II was reported
had an interest In tho cargo, said yesterday There
has been no mystery about the shipment OF hese
Goods hence there was no occasion for preventing tho
sailing OF tho vessel The manifest was legally hicd
aud her clearance papers were obtained in tho resu-
lar way. 10 was not my faut mat
she did not hoist the powder flag when taking
explosives on board, and tho reason for changing
her anchorage to-day was because the officers feared
danger to other craft II She permitted TO lie IN
the channel. The vessel was chartered to go 10
santo Domingo and all Hayt / purchaseo inc
cargo that she has on board for the Dominican
Government, and the vessel 10 tale II to samana
for delivery. OF course It would BIO none OF my
