BOUND TO HAVE ISLANDS.
The Purpose of buying Danish West
ladies Not Abandoned by the
Government.

Washington, March lit is learned
that the purpose of the government
to acquire the island of st. Thomas for
a reasonable consideration from Den
mark has not been abandoned notwith
standing the statement attributed to
the Danish ministers indicating a deci-
sion not to part with the island. While
it is not contemplated that any pres
sure should be brought to bear upon
Denmark on this matter, it is still be-
lieved that the last announcement in
the case is perhaps only an evidence
of purpose on the part of the Danish
authorities to secure a higher price
for the island than the United States
had regarded as proper. 1t is probable
that no active effort will be made by
our government to hasten the negotia-
tons on this subject, but having
learned that the finances of the island
showed a deficit last year of $4,000 in
spite of the most rigid economy in the
administration, n sum charged up
against the home government, it is be-
lieved that our terms will ultimately
be accepted, if reduced to concrete
proposition to pay 100000 for st.
Thomas and ST. Cruz.
