vices received by the State Department

the West Indies directed against the adj
ministration of President Caceres of
Santo Domingo led TO a conference TODAY
between officials OF the State and NAVY

President Morales, who for some time had
disappeared from the scene OF activity. is
now at or near ST. Thomas and is making
q determined effort TO eXpel Caceres aud
regain the Presidency of Santo Domingo
some OF the leaders who were instru-
mental IN eIecting Morales from office
are reported to be now on his side. and
many rumors have been received of the
purchase of arms and the gathering of
revolutionistsiiniports adjacent TO Santo
Domingo.
The Navy Department has forwarded
to Commander Southerland on the
Yankee. such information as it HAS re-
ceived through the State Department,
leaving him full discretion TO deal with
the situation.
1t appears that ex-President Jiminez
is taking an active part in these move
ments and he has recently addressed to
Secretary Root several letters containing
long arguments to demonstrate the JUS
tice OF permitting him and his party to
make an unimpeded effort to regain con-
troll Of the Dominican government. At
last accounts he was reported to be in
Porto Rico. and his movements are being
closely watched by the authorities there
at the instance of the State Department.
