DENMARK's COPYRIGHT LAW.
An American Author Cannot Protect
His Work There.


His Work There.
In dispatch to the Department Of State,
dated Copenhagen. August %, 1895. Min
lister Risley informs the department OF the
result of a recent investigation made by
him On behalf of an American citizen con-
corning the copyright law Of Denmark.
The question was whether 1t was possible
under the laws of that country for a citi-
zen of the United States to obtain copy
right there for a book written by him
and printed and published In the United
States. This question was addressed to
the director general of foreign affairs who
replied that according to the laws in force
the protection OF literary work published
in the United States could not be secured
in Denmark. the protection of literary
property being subject to the condition
common to foreigners and to Danes alike
that the work must be published in Dem
mark to secure the protection of the copy
right laws of that country. Mr.. Risley
adds that after examining the laws OF
Denmark on the subject he finds that the
only condition of obtaining copyright is
pubicg ton within the realm, no matter
where the work was composed or printed.

cup before had cost on an average $4,000

the Priscilla was more than the Puritan,

a National Monument.
In the near future there will prob
ably be begun in Washington the
erection Of a monument which will
eclipse all similar structures of it,
kind in the country. 1t is the inten-
ton Of number of Grand Army posts
at the great reunion at Louisville in
September next to submit resolution
calling for the erection of huge build
ing emblema teal of the war times in
Washington, the cost to be betrayed
by contributions from both north and
south.
L. 81. Hagerty, Of st. Louis, chap
lain-in-chief of the Grand Army, is
the originator of the idea, and he has
already had draughted a plan of the

the dead might finally rest. Nearly
two years ago the graves had sunk
so much that three feet of earth was
filed in over them. The dead are
buried in concentric trenches covering
three acres in the southern end Of the
cemetery.
The idea of the monument originated
with the ex-confederates Of Chicag
camp s, United Confederate Veterans.
General John G. Underwood, a south
ern officer in command of the northern
divisions of the q. G. V, was dele
gated in 1891 to raise funds for the
monument. 1t started with $1,000, de-
rived from a lecture by General John
B. Gordon, of Georgia, and the citizens
Of Chicago gave $4,000.
1t took three years to build the
monument. 1t now stands forty feet
from the ground to the top of the
figure which surmounts it. The pedes-
tai is of pearl granite from quarries
at Constitution hill, near Atlanta. This
granite is of very close grain and is
susceptible Of a brilliant polish. The
monument was erected in July. 1893.
It's lower base is Is feet 6 inches

60 to the confederate dead A few of
the Grand Army posts have protested
against this tribute to the men who
proved themselves great soldiers and
warriors worthy to meet any foe, but

garded it in a broader and kindlier
spirit and have applauded the gener-

The monument is a tribute to the
5000 confederate soldiers who died in
the prison of Camp Douglas while suf-
fering the confinement of war from
1861 to 1865. Forty-seven hundred of
this vast army of the dead are known.
The remaining 1,30O lie i'll unmarked
graves. The records of them We're
burned. The mortality at Camp Doug
las was terrifcally large. The I'M
prisOned men had been reared in the
soft air of the balmy south and the
rigorous severity of the northern win
ters killed them off by the scores. They
were scantily clothed, sparsely fed
and poorly sheltered, and with con-
situations already shattered by the
hardship of war, they were ill-pre-
pared to withstand the additional Sc
verify of prison life.
The bodies of the dead confederates
were inferred first in the burial ground
Of Camp Douglas prison, which was
near the monument in the present
Douglas Square. AS the city grew OBJ
lection was made to the graveyard,
and shortly after the wars close the
bodies were removed to a cemetery
on the north side. Here again the
sleep of the dead was disturbed. Lin

it will stand the rayages of time for
