PURSUED BY HEUREAUX
Dominican President Calls Jiminez's
ORense Piracy.

Cape Haytien, June S.-Much mystery
was observed regarding the visit of the
Dominican gunboat Restoration TO this
port last evening. 1t transpired today
that President Heureaux of Santa Domin-
go was aboard the vessel and that from
here he goes to Inagua, where Senior Jim
inez was last known to be located. The
Restoration left Cape Haytien before )
o'clock this morning. Commodore jan
sen, who came ashore shortly after the
arrival of the Restoration to receive the
report of the Dominican consul on the
alleged illegal shipment of men from this
point by Senior Jiminez and Senior NO.
rales to take part in the landing OF the
revolutionsts at Monte Crispi. spent the
greater part of the night with the con-
sui. The Dominican gunboat Independent
cha did not enter this port yesterday in
company with the Restoration, as cabled
last night. She proceeded to Point De
Paix in order to investigate the report Of
Jiminez's presence at that place, just be-
fore the revolutionary attempt at Monte
Cristi. It is understood that If Presi-
dent Heureaux finds that Jiminez is still
there he will make an effort to induce the
authorities 70 deliver the insurgent to him
on the charge of piracy.
