RURLESON AGAIN MADE
 ATTACK ON SECRETARY HAv

Washington, March 26.-General debate on the military appropriation bill was concluded today and consideration of the bill under the f1ye-minute rule began. During the debate MT, Burleson of Texas renewed the attack on Secretary Hay on account of the allegations regarding the Boer relief funds subscribed in Illi- nois. MT. Hit of Illinois said there had been no developments in the matter and the secretary had done all that was pos- sible.
 The House passed the Burleson resolu- tion calling on the President for informa- tion relative to the application of Gen. eral Miles to go to the Philippines.
 During his speech MT. Burleson read a second letter, written March r, to Sec
 retary Hay by John O. Knight, acting for the Boer relief committee, again calling attention to his request of March II for passports through the British lines, to
 which MT. Burleson said no reply had been received. Furthermore, he said that the newspapers had announced that Sec
 retary Hay did not propose to make any further reply to the House resolutions.
 In the course of his remarks Mfr Burie- son paid high tribute to the fighting Boers and expressed the hope that they would keep up the struggle for liberty until every British soldier was driven from South Africa. He entrusted the magnanimous treatment of General Me- thuen with the horrible execution of General scheepers. He predicted that in

AMERICAN ANTILLES
COMING ACQUISITION OF DANISH
WEST INDIES.
A Provisional Government to Be Es.
tablished-The Future to Be
Left to Congress.

Although the details OF the program for
the acquisition OF the Danish West Indian
Islands have not been perfected the dis
cussion OF the subject by the cabinet has
indicated purpose on the part of the Pres
ident to erect a provisional government In
the islands at the outset. The American
flag, having been raised by an officer OF
the army or navy just which is not Yet
certain, though II may be noted that the
L. s. s. Machias is now at St. Thomas,
some person. probably a civilian. will be
dispatched from the United States to take
charge of affairs as provisional governor
of the islands.
Meanwhile a scheme for a permanent gov
ernment will be submitted to Congress,
probably approXimating the Porto Rican
government act, and If this is farorably
acted upon. permanent government will
be installed before the end of the fiscal
year.
1t is learned at the State Department that
the United States government at the very
outset of the negotiations which resulted
In the treaty of ceSsion of the Danish West
Indies put itself on record as absolutely
refusing to pay any commissions or to deal
with any other party than the Danish gov
ernment. 1t is true that persons represent
ing themselves to be unofficial agents OF the
Danish government presented themselves at
the State Department, explaining that they
wished to promote the cessson. They pre-
sehtea ho SitaeHtiais empowering tHeIn w
act for the Danish government, but their
statements OF fact as to the frame of mind
of the Danish government and the DISPOSE
ton of the islanders toward a transfer OF
sovereignty We're found to be substantially
accurate. But when it came to the negotia
tions the State Department, though awaiting
itself in a measure of the services of one
of these semi-official agents to the extent
of procuring through him an Introduction
to the Danish foreign office In behalf OF
Mr. White. our secretary of embassy at
London, declined to do business with any
body but the Danish officials. Therefore
the State Department knows of the pay
ment of no commissions in this matter and
is not concerned as to what the DANISH
government may have chosen to do in that
direct ion.
