SAN DoMINGos DEBTS.

To che senate:
! submit herewith a protocol concluded
between the Dominican republic and the
United States
The conditions In the Republic OF
Santo Domingo have been growing stead
lily worse for many years. There have
been many disturbances and revolutions
and debts have been contracted beyond
the power OF the republic TO pay
Some of these debts were properly con-
tracted and are held by those who have
legitimate right to their money. Others
are. without question. improper or ex-
orbitant. constituting claims which should

creditors could -~ver obtain from the re-
public itself any guaranty Of payment

must accept certain respons ibilities along
with the riGhts which il confers and
that the same statement applies TO those
who uphold the doctrine.

WHY STEPS ARE TAKEN.
1T cannot be too often and too en-
phatically asserted that the United States
has not the desire for territorial aggran-
dizement at the expense Of any OF its
southern neghbors and will not treat
the Monroe doctrine as an excuse for such
aggra ndizement on its part.
We do not propose to take any part
OF Santo Domingo or exercise any other
control over the island save what f.

The Secretary Expected Back In
Washington In June.
Washington, April 26.-Acting Secre-
tary Adee received a cablegram from
Secretary Hay dated at Bad Nauheim
in which the secretary states simply
but emphatically that he is getting
better.
Touching the press report from the
German springs to the effect that the
secretarys heart is affected, tits learned
from persons acquainted with his trou-
BILE that Secretary Hays heart affection
is not organic, but purely symptomatic,
and is expected to yield readily TO
treatment.
Mr.. Hay is now expected to return
to Washington about the middle OF
June. although he is being urged by
his friends here to prolong his stay
abroad, in view of the quiescent state
of foreign affairs so far as the state
department is concerned, and the mani
fest benefit he is deriving from his
tour.

The bay between and 9 o'clock in the
evening of April %. Rojestvensky' s
fleet left Kamranh Bay April %.
Two ships loaded with rice from Sal
gon and bound for Japan have been
captured by ships belonging to the
Russian squadron.
Russian officers are reported to have
declared that Admiral Roiestvensky Is
determined to fight Admiral Togo ami
will endeavor to vanquish the Japanese
squadron or sink with it. Admiral Ro-
jestvensky has given every detail of
the coming conflict his particular at
tention. Togo's flagship will be his
objective according to a special plan.
More firing at sea was heard at Kam-
ranh Bay Sunday morning, The reports
were extremely faint
It is reported that four Russian cruis-
ers are lying off the coast.
The statements that the crew of the
Russian protected cruiser Diana joined
Admiral Rojestvensky's squadron are
again pronounced absolutely unfounded.
On the contrary, since the Diana has
been interned the most minute precau-
tions have been taken to prevent the
slightest breach Of neutrality. With
the exception Of Dr. Storm, who was
invalided to Russia, one non-commis-
stoned officer, who died, and two SAL
lors. who were inyahded, the crew re-
mains the same. The commander OF
the Diana has given his parole and re-
ports daily to the French commandant.
All the essential parts Of the Diana's
machinery are on board the French

Hunting Party Is Now Almost Snow
Bound In Colorado.
Glenwood Springs, Colo, April 26.-
President Roosevelts hunting trip has
been crowned with success far beyond
his expectations or those of the most
sanguine of his guides. Three bears
were killed by the party yesterday and
two Monday. one by the president and
one by DR.. Lambert. p B. Stewart
of Colorado Springs, one of the presi-
dents hunting companions, arrived
here. accompanied by Courier Chap
man. They brought the story Of the
hunt The killing of the three bears
was telephoned to them, and they un-
derstood that President Roosevelt
brought down two of them, but the de-
tails are lacking.
The party is almost snow-bound in
Its present location and no attempt
will be made to cross the divide. Fif-
teen feet of snow is on the ground on
the other side. and any effort to reach
Redstone would be futile. The hunters
are satisfied, however. for they have
reached the centre of what the guides
say is the best bear country in Colo
rado Bobcats are thick in the coun-
try now being hunted. so plentif in
fact that many are allowed to escape
without a shot being fred in their di-
rection. Several fine skins have been
taken, however.
