THE DANISH TREATY RATIFIED.
Some Defect. I'm the Treaty Pointed
Out, but no Vote Cast Against It.

Washington. February T.-Today In
little more thar an hours time. the
senate disposed of the treaty with Dem
mark ceding to the United States for a
consideration of $1,000. 900 the islands OF
St. Thomas. ST. John and st. Croix.
composing the group Of the Antilles
known as the Danish West Indies and
lying Just east OF Porto Rico and thus.
so far as this country is concerned. con-
summated a transaction which has been
under consideration since the admins
tration of President Lincoln.
The treaty and report upou It were
read at length and more or less discus
sion of the proposition was INDUCED In
Senator Cullom, as chairman OF the
committee on for, ign relations. made a
speech explaining the advantages OF the
acquisition of the islands an6 Senators
Bacon, and McLaurin, Of Mississippi.
made brief remarks, saying that, while
they could not endorse all the provi-
sions Of the agreement. they would
Mace no obstacles in the way of ratih-
cation.
Senator Bacon move to amend the
treaty by striking out the second para
graph of Article 3 of h treaty reading
as follows:
status of the Inhabitants OF the islands
hall be determined by the congress
subject to h stipulation contained in
the present convention"
He based his opposition TO this pro-
vision On the general ground that the
constitution should extend to the Is
lands when thew become d part Of the
United States. He said. however. that
the failure to accept the amendment
would not prevent his voting for the
treaty. for he believed in the Monroe
doctrine. Under that doctrine this
country could not permit amy European
power to acquire the islands. and We
could not in fairness take his position
n then ourselves refuse to buy them
when they are for sale.
The amendment was rejected without
division.
Senator Cullom said the provision eff
fecting the civil rights of the inhabi-
tants was similar to the provision ON
the same subject in the Spanish treaty
concerning Porto Rico-
Senator Cullom said hat in taking tn
islands the United States would assume
no burden of debt, as by the terms OF
the agreement all claims held by Den
mark against the insular treasury
would be Cancelled.
Senator Cu!)om explained thu: under
the terms of the treaty the United
States woul take possession of the is
lands as soon as notifications could be
exchanged, and said that II would not

appropriation of money to pay for them
could be made
