Today Count Lichtervelde, the Belgian
Minister brought to the State Department
Mr.. William Willems, an envoy of the
bondholders committee of Antwerp, who
brought a small trunk full of powers OF
attorney. There were 3,619 bondholders
represented by this gentleman, covering
1881 bonds amounting to 1862, $3.50
pounds sterling Mr.. Willems explained
to Acting Secretary Hill, and Solicitor
Penfleld, who are considering this case,
that all the original bonds had been de-
posted by their owners in the banks Of
Antwerp, Brussels, Amsterdam and that
all of these bondholders are siding with
the Dominican Government in its contest
with the Improvement Company. Accord
ing to Mr.. Willens' statement the bond
holders insist that the last contract made
between the Dominican Government and
the Improvement Company, farming out
the revenues was nullified by the fact
that it lacked the assent of the bond
holders, a cIondition imposed by the
Dominican Government at the time the
contract was drawn.
