The Acting Secretary of State to the American Minister to Haiti .

[Telegram.—Paraphrase.]

The Dominican Government informs the American Minister at Santo Domingo that Horacio Vásquez and the two Rodriguez left Porto Rico today for Cuba, bound for Haiti, and that Vásquez will import through Cape Haitien 1000 rifles and 500,000 rounds. You will bring this informally before the Foreign Office and say that this Government expects that the projected operations of this party on Haitian territory subversive of Dominican peace will be effectively prevented.
