The Second Attempt.

The concierge of Julien's apartments
issued with a somewhat mysterious air
from his little lodge as his tenant passed
through the door. He was a short man,
with a fierce. bristIing mustache. He
wore a semi-miiitary coat. always too
short for him, and he was SO stout that
he was seldom able to fasten more than
two of the buttons of his waistcoat.

sANro DOMINGO, D. R., May 6, 1912

oANIO DOMINGO, ID. r., May d 1872
The republic OF Santo Domingo is now
is the throes Of another revolution. II
was hoped by the government at Wash
ington that the control Of the Dominican
customs houses by United States authori-
Ties would serve to put an end to revo-
buttons here. But it has not worked out
that way. and while the convention be-
tween the United States and Santo Do
mingo is of such nature that foreign
complications can scarcely follow such
revolutions as do occur. at the same time
great internal problems may still arise.
For instance. the treaty provides that
Santo Domingo cannot increase its debt
while 1t Is in force. SO that the money
lenders Of the world are on notice that
the United States will not recognize new
obligations made either by REVOLUTIONARY
or government forces. In this way. al
tnough the treaty may not prevent revo-
buttons, 1t is still effective in preventing
the multiplication Of outside problems, as
Well as In preventing the contendinR
forces from raising great deal OF money
for war purposes.
Inc present revolution is regarded by
the best Informed here as sort of popu-
lar protest against the present admins
tration. The constitutional presidential
least he was regarded as such-was as
sassinated last fall. Immediately a young
military chap named Alfredo Victoria.
aged twenty-seveR seized the reins Of the
government and announced that he in.
tended to make his uncle, Eladio Victoria.
president OF the republic. He called in
the ministers one by one and served notice
on them that his uncle must be the next
president. and told them exactly what
he expected each man in authority to do
to bring about that result. AS he had
the army firmly under his control. there
was no appeal from his decision.

pletely under the domination of his tyran-
nically disposed nephew. and there Is a
bitter hatred toward this young fellow.
1t is said that he lives in perpetual fear
of assassination-a fear that probably is
justified.
Ramon Caceres. the former president.
was assassinated by political enemies. He
had gone out into the suburbs to visit a
relative who lived in the house now oc-
cupied by the American minister. Mr..
Russell The conspirators got some auto
mobiles and went out to this place, in
tending to shoot him and then make their
escape. They succeeded in their purpose
Of killing him, but ran their automobile
on the ferryboat in their effort to escape.
BY q strange coincidence, the chauffeur
who drove the automobile Of the assas-
sins upon that occasion drove the auto
mobile placed at the disposal of Secre-
tary Knox when he visited Santo Do
mingo recently. The American premier
questioned him closely about the matter.

right to take part in the selection of a

It will be because the United States con-
trolls the customs houses and both sides
feel that it will be difficult to navigate
the Dominican ship Of state without the
friendly help OF Uncle Sam.
If the peace negotiations set on foot by
the United States do not pan out, it is
hard to tell just how long the revolution
will last. There Is one hope which the
Nlctoras indulge. and that is the posi-
bility Of an ''unpleasantness'' with their
ancient enemy and neighbor, Haiti.
Haiti possesses about one-third of the
island which the two republics share and
two-thirds of Its population. It's people
for years have been too thickfy settled
to thrive. and they have always looked
longtngly across the international bound
airy line with desire to possess them
selves OF some Of Santo Domingo's terri
tory. Indeed this desire wears ago rinen
ed into q grave international dispute
about the boundary. Haiti insists 1t IL
at one place and Santo Domingo says it
Is at another place. Haiti insists that 1t
Is far back on what Santo Domingo says
Is her territory. Santo Domingo has the
possession that Is said to be the nine
points Of law, but the controversy is
still unsettled.
