DENMARK.
Copen hagen.

According to latest newspaper re-
ports the death of Princess Louise of
Schaumburg-L ppe, which occurred at
Nachod, Bohemia, April 4, was in
reality caused by an attempt at self
destruction. In January last she shot
herself and all efforts to extract the
bullet failed. The wound thus in
fiicted was th@cause of her death and
not meningitis as formerly reported.
1t is further asserted that her married
life had become intolerable. Her hus-
band was accused of beating her and
mortgaging her estate. Princess
Louise was a daughter of the present
king of Denmark. She was born Feb.
II, 1875 and was married to Prince
Frederick of Schaumburg Lippe May
5. 1896 They had three children.
The budget committee of the Danish
folkething recommended an appropria
ton of 10000 crowns for Greenland
expedition under the leadership OF
Myluis Erickson. This courageous ex-
plorer is planning to cross Greenland
hy route TO the north of those taken
by DR. Nansen and Lieutenant Peary.
He will also endeavor to reach the
north pole. The expedition is planned
to leave Copenhagen on July 10.
There is apparently no ground for
the report that there is a movement
on foot in Iceland for a separation
from Denmark with a view of setting
UP an independent government. A
correspondent who says he has inter-
viewed people from all parts of the isl
and states that he has been unable to
find trace of any sucn sentiment.
Queen Alexandra of England ana
the dowager empress of Russia have

1dent as to have his colleagues and

that he was opposed to attempts by the

MED that they differed with the presi-
dent as to the desirability of rate legis-

position in the senate. Mr.. Barnes is
assistant secretary to the president and
is held responsible by Senator Tillman
and others for the recent forcible eject

the fact that Barnes is not a citizen of

Washington, April 49, - Senators
Clapp and Nelson of Minnesota were
severely lectured by President Roose-
welt for appealing to him for a pardon
for Professor A. w. Malchow, former
~ of Hamline university, who is now
serving a sentence in the penitentiary
for writing, publishing and circulating
an improper book.
The plea for pardon was based on
the claim that Malchow wrote the
book for the use of medical students.
Governor John A. Johnson of Mime
sofa and many other prominent per-
sons signed the appeal for pardon. ~
The president declined to act on the
case until he had seen the publiGa-

the book he not only declined to grant
the pardon but stated that he would
add ten years to the sentence if he
had the power to do so.
He lectured the two Minnesota SEN
ators for about twenty minutes in the
vigorous style for which Mr.. ROose-
welt is noted.
