ACCUSED or INTRIGUE.
Asserted That Oil Company ElOcked
Danish Isles Sale.
CAUSED ROOTS WARNING.
His Recent Remarks ON the Monroe
Doctrine Ascri5ed 20 knowledge
of Present status of Danish
West Indies Question.

New York, May lit is asserted by
newspapers in this city that documents
now i'll possession of the state depart
ment at Washington are said to bring to
light IL remarkable intrigue in the Danish
West Indies negotiations involving Hen
ry ii. Rogers, Il Standard Oil company
director aud mutimillionare. The New
York World says:
ut is claimed that this intrigue blocked
the sale of the islands to this country, has
practically opened the way to their ac
QUESTION by Germany and led to the re-
cont vcilcd threat of war by Secretary
Root to uphold the Monroe doctrine.
1T is claimed that Mr.. Rogers. through
agents Ill Copenhagen before the war
with Spain, sugg, stcd the purchase of
the j., mas by the United States. urging
that he could bring the negotiations to IL
satisfactory conclusion for il commission
of 10 per ceut. The Danish government
accepted his proposition.
Later on the Spanish war stopped ne
gotiatiuhs. At its conclusion steps were
taken by German officials to Mcguire ihc
islands. Captain Christmas Won pirel,-
inck-lIalmfcl. who had hecn il Danish
agent in the West indies. henrd of this
and laid the matter before his govern
m"nt. with the result that he was ap-
pointed official agent aiid was SAINT IA
Washington to cOusllmmate the deal with
this country.
"Soon after his arrival here it is
claimed that the agents Of II. ii. Rogers
notified the Danish government that they
would claim the original 10 per cent com
mission.
What Christmas Was Told.
'Captan Christmas was visited and
told that 26 senators were controlled by
Mr.. Rogers; that if the commission-now
reduced to $500. .00O-wcre not paid the
negotiations would fail. The Danish
agent did not believe this until the bill
for the purchase was allowed to die in
congress committee. He then went to
Copenhagen in disgust and made report
to his government.
I'm the meantime much patriotic feel
| ing had been walked up in Denmark. and
the press, country and king appeared to
| favor a retention of the islands in order
TO trade them off to Germany for Slcs-
wick IIolstcin. a former Danish territory.
Now the Washington officials have
bccn informed that negotiations between
Germany and Denmark are well under
way, and ii was against this acquisition
OF territory IN our sphere OF control that
caused Secretary Root to utter his hint of
coming war TO support the Monroe doc
| trinc.
In this connection it is said that Hen.
ry White secretary of the American lega.
tion ut London, went secretly to Coprn-
hagen, searched the royal archives ana
| found that the indebtedness of the islands
to Germany was S4,o00,O0O. Far this
sum the Danish government agreed to
urn over the islands.
