Sin Domingo , March 23. The news
of the postponement by the Untied
Stales Hcnato of action on the treaty
with Santo Domingo makes the situa
tion hwra ncutu and nil Internal uprln
Ing BCUIIIH to be lininlnciit , h.iBod on
the cry that President. Morales nan
been dlflcrcdltod In the Unllud Statea.
PrcHldcnt Morales Hiatus that he Is
prepared to put down any revolution ,
hut that it more HIM Ions matter In his
mind Is foreign compllcntloiiB growing ;
out of Belgium's demand pruHonted
on March 21. HolKium wants the cus-
toniB receipts of a port of Sunto Do
mingo , to the oxtenl of $25,283 a
month , bused on a former agreement ,
to bo paid for three years. This d < v
mand IB coiifltnied as a direct result
of tin1 failure of thti treaty between
tli United States and Sunto Domingo
President Moiules anticipates Hlmllar
demands by other foreign powers ,
which he will bo helpless to resist.
He says ) < IL.-WP 'S to pay all tha re
public H . .debts , "but sees the ruin of
the country with every port In thn
hands of u different foreign power
and no revenue for the government
While he sees no light ahead , be ban
blind faith that "right will tiluuiph. "
In the course of an Interview with
th * Associated Press , President
Morales said"It Is entirely pusslbla
that the United States may bare to
tend an ultimatum here on account of
the Dominican gorornment being un
able , though not unwilling , to moet lt
obligations. It Is utterly Impossible
for the government to pay tha iutui
due foreign nations unless tb * United
States can procure from foreign pow
ers a postponement of their demand * .
Otherwise these demands will be
pressed. I have no physical or moral
force to resist them. With the cus
tom bonnes In the control of the Unit
ed States , the resources of the Isl
and will develop speedily and all de
mands will he paid , with the result
that the country will be educated to
peace nnd permanent prosperity"
With two Dominican ports now In
the hands of the United Slates and
th * failure of the treaty , Dominicans
bellevo that a crab game by foreign
powers will begin at once.
With the seizure of the Dominican
ports by foreign powers , It Is argued
hern that the Monroe doctrine will bo
nullified as regards this republic.
With Ihr United States In possession
of two ports It would not be logical ,
It I * argued , to oppose the secure of
other ports bv foreign powers. At
Ik * same time the only hope of Presi
dent Morales Is that In some way the-
United States can semre a postpone
ment of seizure by Kuropean power *
No steps to Ibis end have bean Initi
ated here
