warship stopped the Clyde line steam
er Cherokee as the latter was nearing
Puerto Plata and informed the cap
tain that he could not enter that port.
the Cherokee then proceeded for
SANTANA and was also prevented from
entering that port, the minister of war
ordering the captain Of the Cherokee
to proceed direct to the capital.
On the arrival of the vessel here the
government demanded that the cargo
intended for Puerto Plata and SANTANA
be landed at this port. The agent Of
the company and the captain of tke
Cherokee refused To comply with this
demand and appealed to bnsced States
Minister Powell for protection. Min
lister Powell interviewed the president
and argued that since the government
Of Santo Domingo had not advised the
foreign legations of any blockade, it
could not prevent the Cherokee from
entering the ports of Puerto Plata and
SANTANA, and insisted that the cargo
should be landed at its destination.
The president in reply
Reiterated His Demand
that the Cherokee's cargo be landed at
San Domingo. but this Minister Powell
refused to permit and declared he
would hold the government responsible
should any violent action be adopted
toward the Cherokee.
When the Cherokee was ready TO
leave for Azua, clearance papers we're
refused and it was again demanded
that she land her cargo at this pert.
Minister Powell wrote a sharp note TO
the government, demanding a permit
for the Cherokee to depart. The gov
eminent refused to allow a pilot 10
board the vessel and Minister Powell
then instructed Capt. Archibald to lake
his ship out and proceed Tor Aqua,
keeping his cargo aboard and landing
1t at the ports OF destination.
The energetic action of Minister
Powell has caused a great sensation.
especially as his proceeding lacked
the support of an American warship.
The Cherokee left the harbor without
a pilot.
The city is quiet, but Preparations
looking to its defense are in active
progress.

GAzzOLO FACTION CEASES
TO RUSH IMPROVEMENTS.
House of Delegates Refuses to Take
Reconstruction bills From Com
mittee-Adiourns n Week.

Contrary to the pace set In the past by
the Gazzolo faction in the House of Dele
gates, for rushing all improvement meas
ures, that body adjourned last night for
one week and refused to take from the
Committee on Public Improvements nine
street reconstruction bills, seven alley
bills and two for the making Of sewers.
Brennan made the motion that when
the House adjourned it adjourn for one
week William A Block objected to the
motion In a speech in which he drew at
tention to tho fact that the Terminal kill
had Just received its first reading after
weeks unaccounted for delay. and he
said that in his opinion by meeting Tues
day night the bill could have its second
reading and then be referred to the
Railroad Committee. Hagerman seconded
Block in this.
The objection was Of no avail, however,
and Brennan's motion carried
Near the close of the meeting BirSe
asked that some street improvement bills
which had been in the Committee on Pub
lie improvements for more than forty
referred to the House and either passed
or killed.
Birge was particularly interested in the
bill providing for the reconstruction of
the city limits. He said that this street
was the main artery out into the county
and something should be done at once.
Conran's motion to refer the bills back
to the Committee on Public improvements
again carried. as a matter of course, he
being member of the ruling faction.
Bills were placed upon their first reading
