JININEZ AT SAN DOMINGO.
WARMLY WELCOMED BY POPULACE-PRo-
VISIONS SCARCE.

San Domingo, Sept 12-Juan Isidro Jimnez,
the aspirant TO the Presidency Of San Domingo,
arrived here this morning on board the Domtni-
can warship Presidente. His arrival was the
cause of great festivals and expressions Of sat
isfaction. 1t is not known yet when the cleo
tlon will take place. At present the country Is
quiet The most difficult part to be settled is
the financial situation OF the Government, the
paper money being Of the principal causes
Of the bad condition OF affairs. How this will
be fixed Is difficult to foresee Business is still
much depressed. Importatons are limited and
the market is bare OF many articles. principally
provisions.
The manifesto Of Senior Jiminez proposes
liberal Government based on strict honesty and
equity He calls for reform of the present tariff
of duties, advocates strict gold basis, and is
IN favor OF the withdrawal OF the present circu-
lating national coin and paper money. He also
recommends the favoring Of immigration, full
guarantees to citizens and foreigners. and the
improvement Of roads, ports and public works
in general
The Provisional President had already an
nounced that the Provisional Government would
take constructive action until the arrival Of
General Jiminez. who is apparently expected to
assume immediate direction Of affairs.
The Importance Of the money question is seen
from the fact that the paper currency. the only
currency in San Domingo. circulates at some
points in the ratio of 30 to |, and as 1t is under
stood that Senior Jiminez intends to repudiate
certain part Of the issue, 1t is not unlikely
that some trouble will arise. In any case an
official announcement showing precisely what
IS to be done is anxiously awaited by business
houses.
News about the departure Of a Clyde Line
| steamer from NewYork is anxiously awaited.

URGES BOYCOTT OF EXPOSITION.


Halifax, n. s. Sept. 12.-J. W. Longley, At
tornev General Of Nova Scotia. will issue let
ter tomorrow in which he vigorously denounces
the second condemnation OF Dreyfus, and urges
the nations Of the world to join in general
hovcott OF the Paris Exposition. Mr.. Longley
says
THE fabric upon which social existence rests
IS Justice Every poor human being that Is
called upon to tread this earth for longer or
shorter period is each moment at the mercy or
the stronger power Of his fellow beings, and his
only capacity to enjoy life and avail himself OF
its onportunities rests upon the conviction that
he shall receive justice at the hands OF those
with whom his destiny is limited 1t is not
surprising, therefore. that the world should
stand aghast at the spectacle Of human being
condemned absolutely without evidence, after
q nuhlic trial in the face Of the whole world.
condemned indeed, In the face Of the fact that
the evidence pointed almost conclusively TO his
Innocence At all events II established beyond
ouestion that his former conviction was the re-
suIt ~ forgery falsehood and conspiracy. The
nuhlic opinion of the world has right TO make
itself heard and felt in this and every matter
which outrages the sense Of justice. IL seems
TO me that the means are at hand 10 make
France instantly and keenly sensible or the
moral consequences of this prostitution OF JUS
tice. A great worlds fair is TO be held at Paris
in the year 1900. All the nations OF the world
have been invited to participate In this great
Fxposition and most of the great nations or the
world have engaged to be there. Great Britain

Der. Ny proposition is that, IN view OF this In
famous moral turpitude of the French people
sanctioned by the Government and upheld by
the mob. the other nations of the world should
one by one refuse to participate in this great
centennial show. They could very well aliege
