 FOR THREE ISLES
Danish West Indies Desired by U. S. for Military
 Reasons.

Washington, July 25.-Only de- termination of a few minor details remains to complete negotiations of a treaty between the United States and Denmark providing for the acquisition of the Danish West Indies by this gov ernment at purchase price of $25,- 000,0OO.
 So near agreement are the two gov ernments that an official white house announcement this morning predicted that the treaty probably would be signed during the day. Tonight the delay in closing the negotiations was not explained, but it was indicated that no material barrier had de- veloped.
 Chairman Stone of the senate for eign relations committee saw Presi- dent Wilson today, but said afterward he had not discussed the purchase. It IS understood the government hopes the treaty will be ratified during the present session of congress.
 The three islands of the Danish West Indies-St. Croix, St. Thomas and St. John-lie due east of Porto Rico, and their value to the United States is strategic from a military point of view. The harbors of St. Thomas and St. Croix are of first i'm portance to the American navy and St: Thomas itself lies in the lane oi shipping from Europe to the Panama canal.

 The first cases were discovered on June 10, but secrecy was maintained, because.
