WORTH ALL THEY COST
COMMITTEE REPORT ON PURCHASE
OF DANISH WEST INDIES.
Islands of Great Importance I'm n
Strategic Way, as They Are in the
Gateway to the Istbmus.

WASHINGTON, Feb. THE recent ia
vorable report by the Senate committee on
foreign relations of the treaty for the ces-
sion of the islands of the Danish West
Indies was accompanied by a written state
ment made by that committee to the Sem
ate This report contains a small diagram
showing the location of the three islands
and the positions relative to Porto Rico
and gives numerous interesting facts rel
ative to the islands. 1t shows that during
the year 1900 the islands exported to the
United States sugar, molasses and dis
titled spirits amounting to s56s.945, and that
during the same period the expectations
from the United States amounted TO $624,-
5A. The annexation of the islands was
sought by the United States years ago.
and as far back as 1867 Denmark declined
to sell the islands for $5,O0O000, but made
a proposition to part with them for $15 0O0,-
900. Secretary Seward offered $500, ,000
which was declined. He afterwards agreed
to pay that amount for the islands of ST.
Thomas and st. John, but the trade fell
through because of complica tions which
arose. At that time Denmark insisted that
the consent of the people in the islands
should be formally given before the sale
should be consummated, and when the vote
was taken there were only twenty-three
out of a total of over 1000 ballots against
the cession. When the treaty was returned
to the Senate Of the United States it was
tied UP there for two years and ultimately
failed of ratification.
Continuing, the report says: These
islands, together with Porto Rico, are of
great Importance in strategic way
whether the strategy be military or COM
mercial. St. Thomas is the natural point of
call for all European trade bound TO tie
West Indies, Central America or northern
South America. These islands, together
with Porto Rico, form the northea stern
corner of the Caribbean sea and are of
great Importance in connection with the
American isthmus, where a canal will be
constructed between the Atlantic and Pa
cifc They are of first Importance in con-
nection with our relations to the region
of the O~inOco and the Amazon and with our
control Of the Windward passage. In view
of the isthmuS canal and European settle
ments in South America every additional
acquisition by the United States is OF value
Porto Rico is densely populated. Its roads
are poor. II has long coast line without
ports for large vessels. 1t is consequently
very difficult of defense. San Juan is the
only harbor capable Of fertilization and
this is only suitable for vessels Of light
draught"
Explaining the provision in the treaty fo-
continuing the pensions TO retire local func-
tionaries II is stated that the total amount
required annually for this purpose will not
exceed 1000.

INDIANIANS CAUGHT.
They Hold Notes md Mortgages
which Have Forged Signatures.

DAVID CITY, Neb.. Feb. Forged pa
per sold by the defunct Platte Valley Bank
Of Bellwood has already reached an aggre-
gate of s15o,OOO and 1t may largely exceed
this. Customers OF Cashier Amos Gould
from Laporte and Michigan City. Ind, are
here and claim that in every instance the
notes and mortgages held by them are for
geries Real estate mortgages have been
forged including the certificate of filing
and recording. giving book and page, while
this week several chattel mortgages have
been received by banks and attorneys here
for collection that are also forgeries. Gould,
ii is charged kept a private book where
he had a record of ali forged notes, the
amount of each and the date Of maturing.
and when one of those notes matured he
would replace ii with another forged note
and pay the holder the interest. Gould, Ii
is alleged, claims had IT not been for the
blowing up of the bank safe a short time
ago. in which his private books, where he
kept a record of all the forged notes was
destroyed, he would not have been detected
and he would be still running the bank.
The cashier and his brother are still in
Jail. The day of their arraignment has not
been set.

MINE sUsPENDS OPERATIONS.
Trouble over the Examination of
Union working Cards.

wILKESBARRE, Pa, Feb. THE big
Nottingham mine of the Lehigh and
Wilkesbarre Coal Company at Plymouth
had 10 suspend operations to-day because
a sufficient number of employees had not
reported for work. The mine when in full
operation employs 500 men and boys. The
trouble has been brewing since Monday.
One of the inside foremen. it is said. OBJ
jected to committee OF United Mine Work
ers VINO are also employees of the mine, ex-
amining working cards of the men. When
the members OF the committee refused TO
comply with the order OF the foreman they
were notified that their services were no
longer required. The matter was laid be-
fore the district assembly of the United
Mine Workers and the majority of the
miners said they would not report for
work to-day.
According TO a new rule adopted by the
national convention Of miners at Indianap-
oils recently, no strike can be declared at
any colliery in the anthracite region un-
less ii receives the sanction OF the district
legislative body. The miners at the Not
tingham cofIiery deny they are on strike.
They say some men have simply quit work.
A meeting Of the employees Of the colliery
was held tonight and a committee was ap-
pointed to wait on the officials OF the COM
pany and notify them that unless the dis
charged men are reinstated a strike would
be declared on Monday. and the engineers,
firemen and bumpers will also be called

Proposed by n French Savant at Paris
-Maury's Achievements.
NEW YORK, Feb. IA proposition has
been made, says a Paris dispatch to the
Herald, by DR.. A. Bergeret at the Sor-
bonne to raise international monument
to Lieutenant Maury, the pioneer Of mod
ern motsorology and photography. The
occasion was a lecture by DR.. Bergeret,
professor Of terrestrial physics at the Sor-
bonne. on THE Circulation OF the Air"
The lecturer explained the theory of the
trade winds and OF cyclonic and anti-cy-
clonic centers, which Lieutenant Maury
rendered practical and popular The emf
nent American photographers studies on
the gulf stream and the maritime currents
were next dwelt upon. Lieutenant Maury,
II was declared, demonstrated that scien-
lists are the best servants of humanity.
He diminished the breadth of the ocean by
half for he made ii possible to cross the
Atlantic and the Pacific in half the time
over, in the cost Of maritime transporta-
tion resulting from Lieutenant Maury's
charts was estimated by DR.. Bergeret at
800. 100000 francs annually.
The suggestion to raise monument TO
Lieutenant Maury, with which DR.. Bergeret
concluded his address, was received with
warm applause, and a provisional commit
tee was formed to carry IL out.

CONDITION LAST NIGHT.
Slight Improvement Shown-The Pres
ident's Wishes Respected.

GROTON, Feb. THE condition of Theo-
dore Roosevelt. jr., son of President Roove-
welt and a student of Groton School, who
is i'll of pneumonia. reported at 9
o'clock tonight as being ''as comfortable
as could be expected" Those who are in
attendance at the lads bedside declined to
give anything more definite. 1t was under
stood at the school, however. that the pa
tient showed some improvement during the
afternoon and early evening. Tomorrow
will find the school practically deserted. for
a majority of the $50 students left for their
homes during the afternoon, and the rest
will leave in the morning. On receipt of
word that Mrs. Roosevelt would come TO
Aver from Boston on the first morning
train. arrangements were made TO meet her
at the station. The school Is about half a
mile from the station.
From sources outside the school 1t was
learned that the Presidents son caught
cold a day or two ago and the trouble
proved stubborn. Last evening the symp-
toms grew more serious and at midnight

MRS. ROOSEVELT EN- ROUTE
PREPARED TO LEAVE WASHINGTON
WHEN NEWS WAS RECEIVED.
President Kept Informed All Yester-
day of His Sons Condition-An
Improvement Last Night.

WASHINGTON, Feb. Mrs. Roosevelt,
the wife of the President, left Washington
at 4:50 o'clock this afternoon for Groton,
Mass, where their son Theodore, jr., is
lying seriously i'll of pneumonia. She is
travelling in a drawing room on the regular
train of the Pennsylvania Railroad, which
goes through to Boston without change,
arriving there tomorrow morning at z
o'clock From Boston the first available
train will reach Groton at 1913 a. m. Mrs.
Roosevelt is accompanied only by maid.
The first information to reach the Presi-
dent and Mrs. Roosevelt of the illness of
their son was received at the White House
by telegraph at $40 o'clock this morning
The message was signed by the president
of the college where the young man is a
pupil and stated, in effect, that a slight in
disposition had developed into an acute
and sharp attack of pneumonia, and that
he was seriously i'll. Another message re-
ceived later in the morning stated the
young mans temperature was 104. Ar
rangements were at once set on foot for
Mrs. Roosevelt's departure for Groton this
afternoon, and since the first intelligence
was received the President has been in al
most constant communication by telephone
and telegraph with the college faculty.
According to these frequent reports, the
sons condition remains almost unchanged
since morning. There is attempt to
minimize the danger Of an acute attack Of
pneumonia, and the President and Mrs.
Roosevelt are we'll aware that the young
mans condition is serious. Everything
possible is being done for him and the best
physicians and nurses are in constant at
tendance.
President Roosevelt himself is very likely
to go to Groton tomorrow and will do so
except in the event of very reassuring
news being received during tonight. If
he does go he will return almost imme-
diately If his sons condition admits. He
already has decided that Mrs. Roosevelt
must remain by her sons bedside but if
his condition is such as to make ii safe for
the President to go farther away from him
he will keep his engagement to go to the
his party on Monday night, originally
planned
Several rather reassuring messages were
received at the White House during the
late afternoon and the early evening from
Groton the tenor of which was that the
condition of the Presidents son at this
time is satisfactory to the attending physi-
clans.
The latest information received at the
White House tonight from the Presidents
son at Groton, Mass. was that his condi-
ton was a little more favorable The
President feels encouraged to hope that il
NAV continue so and that the necessity for
a visit TO Groton may be avoided.
