SANTO DOMINGO, Jan. Is. - The
revolutionary General Navarro having
seized cattle on an estate at La .Fe,
which is an American property, the
agent al the estate applied TO United
States Minister Powell for protection.
The minister was compelled to refuse
the request, as he had no force at his
command sufficient TO guard the estate.
The force on the United States gun
boat is too small to safeguard estates
from pillagers, and in order to protect
United States property there is great
need Of larger warship here If the
revolutionists should enter the city just
now it would be impossible to preyeat
the pillage which would be sure to take
place, and there is no other warship
here to support the Newport should it
be found necessary to land men.
There was continued firing around
the city. A shell from the enemy's
camp has entered a private dwelling

Over in New York there's a
man famous for making good
clothes for boys. He sends
them North, East, South,

shake of his head that he
hasn't a customer who makes
him so much trouble as the
Wanamaker Store.
Other firms don't worry about
the stuffs being all-wool nobody
else seems to care whether seams
are sewed with cotton or silk; nor
insists on such perfect stitching
and tailoring.
