THE KEY To HAYT|

WASHINGTON, Aug 8.-Alarming
news Of widespread revolt in Santo
Domingo was received by the state de-
partment today, Minister Furniss at
-Au-Prince, Hayti reported that
Dajabon, on the frontier between Hayti
and Santo Domingo, had been captured
by the rebels after a battle lasting
fourteen hours. The rebels are said to
have lost 300 men before taking the
town
Dajabon is considered a point Of
vantage for the invasion of either Hayti
or Santo Domingo
1t is feared here that this action NAV
precipitate open war between Hayti
and Santo Domingo, which has been
threatening for the past two weeks.
The Santo Domingo government al
ieges the rebels were aided by Haytfans
and il is thought the Haytian govern
ment is behind the movement. If Santo
Domingo wishes to retake Dajabon
their troops will have to cross the
border an action which the negro re-
public could not but construe as a dec
Iaration of war.
