1800 Marines to Prevent
Any Revolution Agitation.
Washington, D. C.— Military rule
has been proclaimed in Santo Domingo
by the United States navy to suppress
existing political chaos in the little re
public and pave the way for guarantee
ing future quiet by establishing there
such a financial and police protectorate
as the American government now ex
ercises over Haiti.
Eighteen hundred American marines
will maintain order for the present,
and, at least until elections are held in
January, their officers will supervise
the conduct of government by native
officials and disburse the customs reve
nues which American receivers have
been collecting by treaty arrangement
for nine years.
The navy proclamation, issued Fri
day, apparently has been put into
effect without bloodshed.
The necessity for a drastic step has
been considered since the overthrow
several months ago of President Jim i
nez by General Arias, a strongly anti-
American revolutionist.
With Arias
in control, the Dominican assembly
elected Federico Enriquez president,
but the United States refused to rec
ognize the new government and with
held the balance of customs revenues
left after the regular payments of in
terest on the foreign debt. Conse
quently the native officials and em
ployes drew their first pay since the
downfall of Jiminez when, on Decem
ber 2, the American officers began to
disburse some $600,000 of accumulated
export duties.
,
Secretary Daniels explained Friday
that the form of rule set up by Cap
tain H. S. Knapp, in command of the
United States forces in Santo Do
mingo, did not contemplate any in
fringement of the civil rights or pro
cesses of the native government. The
marines will maintain order and pre
vent revolutionary agitation, but the
municipal and civil laws will still be
administered by Dominican courts.
Berlin is at Loss to Reply to
Note on Sinking of Marina
Berlin, via London — The German

embassy for further details as to the
place and circumstance of the sinking
of the British steamer Marina. It is
said that the information offered in
the American note of inquiry is insuffi
cient for the purposes of investigation.
New York—A detailed report of the
torpedoing and sinking of the British
steamship Marina on October 28 off
the Southwest coast of Ireland, when
19 persons, including six Americans,
lost their lives, was given here Friday
by 41 horsemen, American survivors
of the Marina, who arrived here as
passengers on the steamship Tuscania
from Glasgow.
Jesse Hancock, of Newport News,
Va., acting as spokesman, said the
ship was torpedoed without warning,
two torpedoes being fired, the first hit
ting her on the starboard quarter and
the second on the port side. He added,
and his assertion was supported by the
others, that the firing of the second
torpedo was unnecessary, and had it
not been fired there would not in all
probability have been any loss of life.
