Danish Loan Goes Slow.

COPENHAGEN, Denmark, Nov. g.
The time for subscribing to the stock Of
the Danish West Indian company ex.
pred yesterday. OF about $1,OOO,OOO
nominal capital only one-fifth was sub.
scribed for Notwithstanding the adver-
tisemcnt given to the concern by King
Christian and Crown Prince Frederick
taking stock. The promoters, who are
antisalers, are dOWncast on account Of
the weakness of the sentiment In favor
OF aiding the Danish West Indies. The
leaders of the movement intend to ap-
peal to King George of Greece, Queen
Alexandra and the dowager czarina Of
Russia to buy shares. The banks and
a few individuals will probably finance
the matter and stand the losses since
the treaty providing for the sale of the
Danish West Indies to the United
States was rejected partly on account
Of their promises.
