TREATY WITH SAN DOMINGO.

It Follows Closely the Lines Laid Down in
the One With Brazil.
The New York World prints today what II
claims are the provisions of the treaty recently
concluded with San Domingo.
The treaty was negotiated by Manuel de J.
Galvan, minister plenipotentiary and envoy
extraordinary, on the part of San Domingo, and
John W. Foster, special commissioner, on the
part of the United States, and was signed in
Washington June 4.
Under the terms Of the Mckinley bill the
treaty does not require ratification by the Sem
ate. As Senior Galvan was specially authorized
by his government to carry on the negotiations
and was granted full power to sign the conven-
ton, the treaty will go into force without
delay. September is the date fixed upon.
The full text will be officially published within
q few days.
Both Secretary Blaine and the President
have approved the treaty. Secretary Suarez
of the Dominican legation has Just returned to
this city from flying trip to San Domingo,
where he laid the text Of the convention before
President Heureaux, and received his indorse-
ment on July g.
The treaty follows closely the lines laid down
in the convention with Brazil. In the opening
sections the authority Of the Mckinley act for
