TwO.nnd-Hnlf Cent Piece,

Washington, Nov. 30.-A two-and-
a-half cent piece is demanded by the
country, according to the annual re-
port Of the director Of the mint He
recommended the passage OF law
authorizing a coin of that denomi-
nation made from copper and nickel
"When you consider that we have
no coin between the one-cent piece
and the five-ccnt piece" said the di-
rector, land that many articles worth
more than a cent and less than five
cents sell for the latter price because
Of lack OF an intermediate money
unit Of value, the economic import
ance OF it will be readily seen. Arti-
clcs which now sell for fifteen cents
or two for a quarter would sell for
twelve and half cents.
Popular shops, such as five and
ten-cent stores, would undoubtedly
place articles now selling at two for
five cents on sale at two and half
cents each"

U. S. BOSS IN SANTO DOMINGO.
Military Rule ProClnimctl--1,8 800
Marines Keep Order

Washington, Nov. Military
rule has been proclaimed in Santo
Domingo by the United States Navy
to suppress existing political chaos
in the little republic and pave the
way for guaranteeing future quiet by
establishing there such financial
and political protectorate as the
American government now exercises
over Haiti.
Eighteen hundred American ma
rines will maintain order for the
present and at least until elections
are held in January, their officers
will supervise the conduct Of govern
ment by native officials and disburse
the customs revenues which Ameri-
can receivers have been collecting by
treaty arrangements for nine years.
Drastic Action Necessary.
The necessity for drastic step
has been considered since the over
throw several months ago Of Presi-
dent Jiminez by Gen. Arias, a strong
ly anti-American revolutionist. With
Arias in control the Dominican AS
sembly elected 'Frederico EnriQuez
President, but the United States re.
fused to recognize the new govern
ment and withheld the balance Of
customs revenues left after the regu-
lar payments of interests on the for
eign debt. Consequently the native
officials and employees now will draw
their first pay since the downfall Of
JimineZ.
Upon the election Of q President
by the Assembly to be chosen in Jan
uary the United States will ask for
the ratification Of a treaty similar to
that in force with Haiti, providing
for American supervision Of Domi-
MEAN finances and for a native con-
stabulary ofilcered by Americans.
High officials made it plain to-
night that the Washington govern
ment is determined that there shall
be no renewal Of the revolutions in
Haiti and Santo Domingo.
