J!AiNEZ ARRIVES
At Santo Domingo City Where He Will at Oh,c
lake Charge Of Affairs.

Santo Domingo. Sept 11.-Scror Juan
Isidro Jimincz. the aspirant 10 the
Presidency of Santo Domingo. arrived
here. this morning, on board the
Dominican warship Prcsidcnte. His
arrival was the cause Of great fcsaivi-
ties and expressions Of satisfaction. II
is not known as yet when the election
will take place. At present the coun-
try is quiet.
The most difficult part to be settled is
the financial situation of the govern
ment. the paper money being one Of the
principal causes Of the bad condition
Of affairs. Business is still very much
depressed. Importations are very
limited and the market is bare of many
articles principally provisions.
News about the departure of a Clyde
Line steamer from New York is anx-
ously awaited provisions being very
scarce.
The provisional President has al
ready announced that the provisional
government would take no constructive
action until the arrival Of Gen. Jiminez
who is apparently expected to assume
immediate direction Of affairs.
The importance of the money ques-
ton is seen from the fact that tho
paper currency. the only currency il
Santo Domingo. circulates at som;
points in the ratio Of 80 to /, and. as II
! is understood that Senior JimineZ in
tends to repudiate a certain part Of the
issue. tits not unlikely that som,
I trouble will arise. In any event an of
E fetal announcement showing precisel!
what is TO be done is anxiously awaited
/ by business houses.
