GOT AGENTS LETTERS.
Minister Powell Demanded Them
Back from the President.

Santo Domingo, Wednesday, Jan. 13.
An incident which came near having
serious results, but for the GOODNESS
and prompt intervention of United
States Minister Powell. occurred here
on the arrival of the Clyde Line
steamer New York. President Morales
demanded that the shipping agent sur
render the ships letters, and when the
agent refused to comply, his arrest
was ordered. In order to avoid being
arrested, the agent went on board the
New York, carrying the letters with
him. He then sent for Consul Max
well. who accompanied him to the
palace, where President Morales re-
newed his demand and compelled the
agent to give up several letters.
Minister Powell, learning of the in
cident promptly went to the palace
and demanded that the letters taken
from the agent be delivered to him.
This President Morales refused to do,
but Minister Powell persisted in his
demand, saying that the government
had no right to take such action, and
that the President must hand the let
terS to him. which President Morales
reluctantly did. Minister Powell also
told President Morales that the agent
represented an American company and
that he (PowelD would not consent to
this arbitrary act on the part of the
government, and that, furthermore, the
agent could not be expelled as was
threatened. Finally the case was sat
isfactorily settled.
Minister Powell, hearing that the
government was unable to protect the
tug Anna, which is owned by Amer
loans WbiIp antariI1pr San IS6Tn o.
quested the commander of the United
States gunboat Newport to guard her.
The reVolutionSts threat tened to cap
ture the Anna, and this morning a

tect her and other vessels obliged to
pass through the waters in this sec
ton of the country.
