FOREIGN INFLUENCES
At WORK IN DENMARK
More likely to Be England Than
Germany Attempting to De-
feat Sale OF Islands.

Washington. Sept State De-
partment officials are beginning to
wonder what foreign influence is at
work in Denmark to prevent the rad-
fication by that country OF the DAN
tsh American treaty ceding to the
United States the Danish West In
dirs
There is no inclination to suspect
Germany any more than Great Brit
ain or France. German objection
would lie in her hope Of acquiring
the islands for herself at some flu
ture time to give her naval base in
the Caribbean. British objection to
the sale to the United States. 1t was
ciai and half military.
England's coaling stations would
deprectate in value and her military
prestige close to the Panama Canal
be weakened It was declared should
the United States acquire the Danish
islands
France, It was said. had a shadowy
claim to the islands II they should
ever be released by Denmark, but It
was not considered probable that
France would raise serious objection
to the cession to this country except
as a friendly Office IN Englend's IA
vor.
IT is held to bs doubtful now that
Denmark WIFI ratify the treaty. The
lower house OF the Danish Pnrlia-
necessftated the governments going
before the country with the issue. II

COMMISSION AT NEW YORK
VIII Sail Tuesday on Mayflower for

VIII At Once Get Down to Busi-
ness.

Washington, Sept. 2.-The expecta-
ments today is that the Mexican COM
mission will make Its initial report
by the end of this month, and that 1t
will recommend the withdrawal of
the Pershing expedition from Mexico.
The withdrawal of the punitive force
will take place Immediately after the
report is accepted by the State De-
partment.
Directly after the evacuation OF
Mexican territory by the regular army,
1t was stated by a high authority to-
day, the 100000 militiamen on the
border will be ordered home.
1t was stated today that the order
recently issued by Secretary of War
Baker ordering approximately $4,000
of the guardsmen to their home
States will not be revoked. The order
was issued when the government
feared there might be a strike and
believed the troops would be needed
to prevent disorders.
| War Department officials believe
the s100,000,000 spent upon the mill
tiamen on the border has been judi
ciously used. and that the training
the guardsmen have had is OF more
worth to the country than the money
expended upon their mobilization and
service on the frontier.
II was declared that the 1900
regular troops in Mexico. together
with those already on the border. will
be sufficient to protect American ter
ritory from Mexican incursions after

It is probable that a large concen- tration camp will be established. p0s- sibly at Mantle, as soon as the Con necticut National guard leaves for ta1e Mexican border. where newly enlisted men will be sent by train daily from all over the state for d short military training under regular army and ma tlonal guard officers before being sent In groups of 50 or moro to the front. lieutenant Colonel Edwin E. Lamb of The First regiment says that this plan will undoubtedly be followed, it being similar to the plan followed in England in the present war.
 Recruiting stations will be continued indefinitely at all headquarters of the various divisions of the Connecticut National guard and men will be sent to the proposed concentration carap in charge of recruiting officers There they will immediately be given the es- sentials of military training after be- ing furnislled uniforms. They will be drilled in marching for several weeks at the camp and will then be taken to ether states, and distributed among the various companies as found expe- dient.
 During the Civil war the plan of forming new regiments of recruits. the officers of which had had little expert ence, proved to be disastrous not only from the standpoint of discipline bu as regards efficiency of the new regi- ments. The plan of adding to regf- ments which sustain losses. necessitat. ing additional men to keep up the normal fight efficiency will be followed during the Mexican campaign and il Is not probable that new regiments will be formed unless President Will son calls for volunteers

BIBLES AND MEDALS
 FOR CATHOLIC SOLDIERS.
Sisters of Mercy of New London Pro- vide scapuIars, Rosaries, Etc. for Guardsmen at Mantle.

When the Catholic soldiers of the Connecticut regiments leave for the Mexican border they will carry souve- Eirs from New London in the form of Bibles, scapuIars. rosaries and medals all contributed by the Catholic Sisters connected with St. Mary's parish in New London, says the New London Telegraph. 1Gle Bibles and other re- liSious emblefns were taken to Camp Holcomb at Mantle Monday by Rev. Timothy M. Crowley of St. 1ary's Star of the Sea church, and that Father Crowley did not remain with the sol- diers and start on the trip to the bor- der was due to the order of Bishop John J. Milan that he must remain in New London.
 It is estimated that more than 50 per cent. of the militiamen stationed at Camp Helccmb are of the Catholic faith. and when this information was communicated to Father Crowley he decided to visit the members of his faith. At the camp he was in consul tation with Rev Oliver E. Magneil, a native of South Manchester and pastor of the church at Wethersfeld, and within an hour every Cahollc soldier was supplied with a Bible and other insignia of the church
