DENMARK MAY NOW SELL
WEST INDIAN ISLANDS
Powers That Baked Our Treaty
of 1902 Are Too Busy to In
therfere Again.

WASHINGTON. May 5.-A rumor IL
current here that this Government
has reopened negotiations for the
purchase Of the Danish West Indies,
comprising the islands Of ST. Thomas,
Santa Cruz and ST. John. lntimations
have come recently that the Danish
Government. embarrassed by labor
troubles on those islands, resulting
In curtailing revenue and making
necessary appropriations by the home
Government. would not be averse TO
selling now.
Secretary Hay signed a treaty with
Danish Minister Brun Jan. "a. 1902.
transferring the Islands from Den
mark to the United States for $1,000
900. The United States ratified the
treaty and so did one branch OF the
Danish Parliament. In the Senate the
treaty failed Of ratification by n tie vote
--32 to 80. .
recently there had been no official
move in the matter. although from
time TO time certain individuals. AMI
mated, IT is supposed. by the prospect
OF commissions for services. have
made efforts to sound out both Govern
ments and renew the negotiations.
The great European powers which
are believed to have exerted influ-
ence in the past to prevent acquisi. e.
iiou OF the islands by the United
states are otherwise occupied at this
moment.

The bark dropped anchor at Staple

them to his cabin and presented them
to his daughter Alvida. who Is young,

bad men had bullied him and Mate

twenty-four members OF the crew

not approach.

Washington, June 23.-Na-

straining every nerve tonight to
prepare for active service on
the Mexican border. New orders
flashed over the wires by Secre-
tary Baker bore a call for haste.
Red tape was cast aside and au-

which the state soldiers will be
rushed to reinforce the border
guards at the earliest possible
moment. The entire army of
100000 men summoned by Pres
ident Wilson's call was placed
directly at Gen. Funston's dis
posal.

The Germans have gained another
step in their progress toward Verdun
by capturing French positions NORTH
east of that fortress. Fighting along a
front of over three miles on the right
bank Of the Mouse, the German forces,
following the usual artillery lombard
ment and in the face of violent fire
from French guns, carried French
first line trenches between hills 321
and 800 and also the Thiaumont fort
At the same time the Germans have
held back the advance of the Russian
forces from Dvinsk to the Galician
border.
Fierce fighting marked the advance
toward Verdun, Paris declares in adj
hitting the loss of the trenches and
the Thiaumont works. Further along
the fighting line, the Germans reached
Fleury, about 312 miles northeast Of
Verdun, but Paris says they were re-
pulsed there by a violent counter at
tack. Paris states that the attacks on
the woods of Vaux, Chapitre, Fumil
and Chenois, and on the Damloup BAT
terry were broken and repulsed.
South of the Damloup battery in
the sector of Moulainville and on the
left hank of the Mouse in the region
of hill 3O4, and LIE Mort Hcmme, the
French positions are being heavily
bombarded by the German guns.
The Russians have advanced further
into Bukowina in pursuit of Gen.
Planners forces, but farther north in
East Galicia and Volhynia their prog
ress apparently has been arrested by
the violent attacks and counter at
tacks Of the Teuton Allies.
French aeroplanes have bombed

planes have attacked Venice, dropping

Announcement also was made that
a full list of mastering officers and a
partial list of medical examiners have
been selected by General Wood Reg
ular army officers estimate that fully
30 per cent. of the state troops will be
unable to meet the physical require
ments. but it is expected the deficien-
cy will be made up from the large
number of recruits who have present
ed themselves. The record for speed
in mobilization is shared by New Jel-
sey, Massa chusetts and the District Of
Columbia. All three had all the units
called out in camp three days after re-
oeiving the War departments order.

men in camp while the full war
strength would be 5000. New Jersey

An order was received from the war de-

directing that all state troops be fnocu-

soon after mobilization.
Thousands Of Recruits
The rush of recruits to the armories OF
New York's guardsmen continued today
and it was estimated that 1000 men applied
for enlistment. The total number of an
plicants for admission to the guard since
the call to the colors was received was
estimated tonight at about 1000. The mum.
