Something Will Happen to
 the Dominican Republic
THE WORLD Is WEARY
The Condition of Affairs There, the | European Governments Believe,
 Calls for an Exercise of the Monroe Doctrine.

Washington, Feb. 6.-Simultaneously at the state department and in the navy department, announcement was made that a serious state of affairs IS prevalent in San Domingo Complaint has been Innde to the state department by the owners of San Isidro plantation that their property has been seized and an appeal is made for immediate relief.
 Other Americans having interests in San Domingo have made similar com plaints: Messrs. Moody, secretary of the navy, and Loomis, acting secretary of state had long conferences with the president on the subject. On his re- turn to the navy department from the White House, Secretary Moody held d conference with Rear Admiral Wise. commanding the training squadron now at Guantanamo, instructing that officer to take immediate and effectiv Q steps for the adequate protection of American lives and property in the Dominican republic, limiting his action at all times to recognized tenets and in- ternational law.
 Upon receipt of this dispatch, Rear Admiral Wise is expected to proceed at once with his flagship to Dominican waters and make a personal investiga- tion. The Colombia has already be een ordered to return to San Domingo from Guantanamo. where she went for coal and the Hartford will be ordered back from the same Rlace.
 San Isidro plantation is owned by the Bartraln brothers of New York. It is managed by an American named Bass. The plantation is situated on the Osa river about eleven miles inland. Only steam tugs can navigate the river and it is expected that Rear Admiral Wise upon his arrival will dispatch one or more tugs with marines to guard the plantation.
 Admiral Wise is not instructed in regard to the killing of Machinist Johnston pending a receipt of the full particulars telegraphed for today. by Secretary Moody. General Sanchez, the Dominican minister, has been in- formed of the firm policy to be adopted by the Washington government. He is lcabling his government regarding the feeling in official circles. It is appar- ent that the long pending Dominican problem is reaching crisis that will i demand immediate attention.
 l The German government has well nigh reached the limit of its patience | III uedihlS hiln Ddll DOInliSO anu lue London and Paris governments show equal impatience with the affairs there
 All these governments have expected that Washington would meet obliga- tions placed upon it by the Monroe doctrine. and put an end to the un- satisfactory state of affairs. If the United States had not acted, it cannot
 be stated that European nations would call the situation to it's attention. General Sanchez the newly appointed
 Dominican minister, called at the state department today and left a note eX-
 pressing regret for the killing of John ston a machinist on the Yankee. The minister had not heard from his gov ernment but he preserted the note or
 his own responsibility. He promised
 that steps would be taken to punish the guilty persons.

Washington, Feb. 6.-Although no de- tails have been received regarding the explosion on the Iowa, a statement was given out at the bureau of ordnance as follows:
 'The bureau is unah hle at this time to assign any cause for the accident. but it is of the opinion that it must be sought for in the powder and not in the gun.

A HOPEFUL GERMAN VIEW.

Berlin, Feb. 6.-rT'he North German Gazette takes great pains to prove that a stoppage of negotiations between Russia and Japan would not necessar- fly mean war. It considers it pos sible that Japan will begin certain un- dertakinss in Korea for which prepar- ations long ago were made. but thinks it unlikely that Russia will oppose these undertakings unless Japan eX- tends her action to the Yalu valley
 It is unnecessary to suppose that Ja- pan will require the transportation of a large number of troops to Korea, since the numerous Japanese settlers.
