no longer be contracted. In particular Mr.. Rob

gress in the Constitutional Convention that

FRANCE AND SAN DOMINGO.
A REMOTE POSSIBILITY THAT THE UNITED
STATES MAY BECOME INVOLVED
IN THE AFFAIR

Washington, Jan. 6.-The United States Gov
eminent has at this moment no concern in the
attempt Of the French Government to settle a
long standing claim against the Government OF
San Domingo by naval demonstration,
reported in the press dispatches. What its
future attitude may be VIII depend entirely
developments. but there is growing indisposi-
ton here to shelter governments from the con-
sequences of their disregard of the rules OF
honesty and international obligations. 1t is not
positively known that in the present instance
turpitude is involved, but from the statement of
facts In the press dispatches the appears
to bear strong resemblance to others which
have preceded 1t and which in the estimation
of officials here justified the action OF foreign
governments in adopting summary measures to
collect their money.
This particular case is said to have been pend
ing about three years, and it is understood that
President Heureaux had finally arranged to
settle it, but the agreement was disregarded by
Jiminez his successor and the present occupant
of the Presidential office of San Domingo. There
is possibility that the United States may ulti
matey become involved in this affair through
what is known as the San Dominican syndicate,
controlled by New-York capitalists. This con-
Germ has concession from the Government of
San Domingo, by which, in return for defraying
the interest on the public debt and otherwise as
sisting the Government financially, 1t is entitled
to collect all the customs revenues of the island.
The present administration in San Domingo is
believed to be so low in funds that 1t could
scarcely pay the 100000 demanded by the
French Government in settlement of the pend
ing claim.
If in this case the French naval commanders
should undertake to seize the customs revenues,
an interesting question might arise. 1t should
be said, however, that so far the State Depart
ment is not Informed that Jiminez mas recog-
nized as still in force the concession held by the
New-York syndicate coming from the late Presi-
dent dfeureauX.
