DANES KILL ISLE TREATY.
United States Cannot Buy Lands De-
sired in West Indies,


The landsthing, the upper house Of the
Danish Rigsdag, has refused to ratify the
sale of the Danish West Indies to the
United States. The vote was tie--3l
to b. The sale of the islands was ap-
proved by the lower house of the last
parliament. but the landsthing rejected
the treaty. In June of this year Den
mark and the United States agreed 10
extend the time for the ratification of the
treaty for one year. Meanwhile a new
parliament was elected, and it was
thought that there was safe majority
of two or three in favor of the sale in
the upper house The lower house was
always overwhelmingly in favor of the
sale.
The predominant sentiment throughout
Denmark is undoubtedly pro-sale, and
the rejection of the treaty is attributed
chiefly TO 4 domestic political effort TO
embarrass the government and bring
about the resignation of the ministry.
The question of the sale of the islands
may not remain dead for any length of
time.
When official confirmation of the action
of the Danish upper house in declining
to ratify the treaty for the sale of the
Danish West Indies TO the United States
was received at the State Department in
Washington, the officials of the depart
ment expressed themselves as much ois-
appointed.
1t is believed that the Danish people.
the noble classes excepted. are heartily
in favor of selling the islands, which
have been n continual expense to the
crown.
