Government Violated It's Neutrality Policy
 and Enormous
 Demand Made.
GAVE BRITAIN PRESTIGE
Allowed Submarines To Reach the Baltic Sea During the
 Past Winter.

AMSTERDAM, Aug Tt has just been officially learned here that Denmark has been forced to pay secret indemnity to Germany which amounts to $22,4OO,0OO. This indemnity, according to official ad- vices was on account of Denmark's failure to maintain strict neutral ity.
 'The ofTense is reported to have occurred last winter. At that time the Baltic was invaded by British submarines. To enter the Baltic from the North Sea it must have been necessary for the submarines to pass thTcugh Danish waters which were strongly guarded by the Danish forts.
 Germany is said to have obtained evidence that the English submarine could not have entered the Baltic without permission or connivahce of the Danish government.
 Advices further state that the Danish government made a complete denial but the Kaiser ordered the payment of the indemnity or he would lombard the Danish coast no matter what the consequences.
 There has been no information re- ceived that the indemnity was paid but it is reasonable to presume that it was or that negotiations were en- tered for the transaction.

with the memories Of the deadly and
dreadful war fresh in mind. with graves
all over the north and south in every
cemetery and the thought of unknown
resting places and long trenches of dead
into which the fathers and sons Of the
north had been hurried. There were
empty sleeves and crutches on the
streets and million men who had not
yet lost the bitterness Of battle from
their souls. The north was republican,
the south democrat In both sections
minority existed In opposition, as
sailed with bitter invective and reply

election for many years after the civil
war fought the war over again.
Houses blossomed with banners pro-
claiming allegiance to one party and
the other. Children bore the names OF
candidates ON their caps and wore the
caps to school. II there exists a man
