FOR PROMOTING A REVOLUTION
CUNNINGHAM SUES JIMENEZ,
S4NTO DOMINGO CLAIMANT.

Back in 1907, He Says He Helped Along
the Fanita Expedition Which Heureaux
Aborted and He Wants S2S q for
Services in Washington and
A suit brought by Joseph l.. Cunningham
to recover 1926, 900 from Juan l. Jlmenez,
former president of Santo Domingo, for
services rendered in connection with the
abortive attempt made by Jimenez and
Gen. Morales to obtain possession Of the
republic. was on trial yesterday before
Supreme Court Justice Fitzgerald and a
jury,
But little progress was made with the
trial. 1t was said by some Of the persons
Interested that the testimony to be X
will disclose a plot, conceived in Washing
ton several years ago, to capture Santo
Domingo and turn it over to the United
States.
Cunnineham's services centred around
the .Fanita expedition Of 1897. Morales
and Jimenez went down, ostensibly to Cuba,
but really to Santo Domingo. The ship
put in at Monte Cristi and captured the
Governors palace there, making the Gov
ernor a prisoner. Before the further plans
of the revolutionists could be put into
execution President Ulises HeureauA
swooped down with a re giment and put the
invaders to rout The Fanita was in
Savanna Bay the n. a spot that President
Grant had once wished to acquire as a
coaling station for this country. This
policy of Grants has long been favored
in certain quarters in Washington, but is
not lovingly entertained by the natives OF
Santo Domingo.
HeureaLx 5 troops killed thirteen of the
| revolutionists but Jimenez escared to the
Fanita and then she went on to Cuba. -.
Cunningham did not go into much detail
, yesterday concerning his services. His
| counsel, E. P. Phillips, said, after the ad-
iournment. that he doubted whether 1t
would be public policy" to let Cunningham
tell all he knew now that the matters were
so ancient. Jimenez was not in court.
Cunningham testified that before the
Fanita sailed, in May. 1897, he interviewed
many persons at the request OF Jimenez:
He reported to Jimenez and discussed
with him and Morales the expedition plans.
His bill to Jimenez was S8j Co.,, made up
Of 500, eco for services rendered in Washing
ton, s25, 900 for services at Mobile, whence
the Fanita sailed, and $4,000 more for
| subsequent services.
said Cunningham, and offered $4,000,
payable in three months. Cunningham
accepted this proposition, and Jimenez
made out a memorandum of the claim.
which was put in a sealed envelope and de-
posted with the Colonial Trust Company.
This envelope was produced in court, but
Justice Fitzgerald declined TO permit 1t to be
opened, saying that the proper course was
to make an application at Special Term
and have a referee appointed 70 determine
the contents Of the envelope. An adjourn
ment was then taken till his morning.
