Dominican Minister Charges
LACK of Sincerity and

~ the Associated Press.

~ the Associated Press.
Dominican Minister Andres Pas
torisa charged yesterday an "ahso-
l,rte lack of sincerity and truth in
misleading reports" regarding "the
mass slaughter Of Haitians in Santo
Domingo"
In formal statement he referred
to a note by the Haitian minister to
the Dominican government on No.
Nember in which it was declared
l,o40 Haitians had been killed in
Dominican territory, ~ wounded and
% missing.
THE abnormal character of those
hgures,' he said. has been made
clearly evident by the judicial in
vestigation carried out and carefully
verified by the Dominican officials Of

1896 Census Cited.
He said Dominican census reports
published in 1885 showed a total Of
1882 Haitian residents in the seven
northern provinces and records in
the Office of statistics of the republic
showed reduction by October l,
1887. to s.o2l persons.
After the border incident already
mentioned" he continued, the GOV
ernment Of Haiti, under pressure OF
its political adversaries. who desired
to ageravate the internal situation.
ordered the repatriation of all Haitian
residents in the North. During Oc-
fober and November. 5,728 Hatians
were repatriated by this order. A CEN
s'ls. taken in the following month Of
December showed that 2.lss Hatians
had remained in the aforesaid prov
inces. because they were not willing
to subject themselves to the order of
their government.
Hence, if We add the number Of
the epatriated to that of those who
remained in the North, We have total

by subtracting this number from
the 8,o21 persons who were residents
OF those provinces on October l. 1897,
We find the remainder to be only los.

Therefore. the number of persons

Furthermore, the repatriated Hal
tans went principally from the from
tier regions. where the incidents
occurred. others went from places
farther in the interior. The declara-
tions OF those latter. on which the
Haitian note was based, serve to
OF Gn
incidents said to have occurred in
the interior had no connection with
what happened on the frontier.
THE note addressed by the Minis
Ter OF Haiti to the Dominican govern
ment on November contains all the
information possessed by the Haitian
government at that time and all it
could have ascertained If. as it claims,
those repatriated Haitians who gave
the information were eye-winesses Of
the alleged slaughter.
Malice Is Charged.
And it Is absolutely inexplicable
why those witnesses should have
omitted or withheld the information
which the Haitian authorities now
pretend to have acquired whereby they
augment. with malice aforethought,
the number Of the victims.
IT it were credible that the num-
her of victims could have reached
$4,000, as it is now represented by
constant and systematic progression.

could not be justified for declaring
the number to be about 1000"

ARTICLE REVEALS
LICENSING RULING

In the current issue of the Wash
ington Real Estate Board News, the
official publication Of the Washington
Real Estate Board, appears an article
of interest to property owners and real
estate brokers in connection with the
recently adopted real estate license
law.
Under the terms of this provision
real estate brokers or statesmen are
required to have the written consent
of the owner or his authorized agent
before the broker may offer the prop
erty for sale or for rent or before any
sale or rental sign may be placed upon
the property. The District OF Colum-
bia has had law since 1913 which
requires property owners to give real
estate brokers their written consent
before sale or rental signs may be
placed on the property, and the num-
ber of signs has been limited to not
