 CROWDS TO EMPRESS

"The Rack" five reel film at the Empress, drew a large crowd last night. This popular society drama starred by Alice Brady, is a striking play of gripping interest, and it held the audience spellbound until the last scene of the last picture.
 The court room scene in which Mrs Gordon, (Alice Brady) is tried for the murder of John Freeman Is of unusual interest, and gives Miss Brady an opportunity to display her rare emotional art.
 ''The Rack" will be presented at the Empress tonight, and a complete change of pictures tomorrow night.

CONDITIONS BAD
ON DANISH island
Trade Is Depressed And
There Is Little Money
Now.


ST. THOMAS, Danish West Indies,
Feb. 25.-( Correspondence of The AS
ISOLATED Press).-The report that the
Danish government might reopen the
old question OF the sale Of tho Danish
West Indies to the United States has
attracted attention to the industrial
and economic conditions here at the
present time. In answer to inquiries
from the United States is may be said
that the conditions are most unsatls-
factory both on this island, and the
island Of st. Croix.
There is a serious depression in
trade and scarcely any money in cir
culation in st. Thomas. This Is CHIEF
w due to the European war and the
closing of the Panama Canal. The
chief industry of the island has al
ways been the supplying of coal and
water and other necessities to ships,
but this is now practically at 2 stand
still, particularly because OF the sus-
pension of the steamship service OF
the Hamburg.Amerfcan line. This
company gave employment to a large
number OF 1aborers and Others, the
majority Of whom have had to emf
crate to Santo Domingo or other agrt-
cultural islands in order to make a
livelihood. In fact 1t is felt now that
the Hamburg.Amerfcan line has, more
than was heretofore realized been,
the main support of the island, dis
bursting a large sum of money an
nually. It is only recently that was
completed here an extensive system
of harbor works with up-to.date dock
and all modern appliances such as
electrical coal cranes, warehouses and
oil tanks, and with the opening Of the
Panama Canal it was expected that
a great trade would develop here. But
the slides in the canal have prevented
these hopes from being realized.
There are no serious labor trouc.
bles nor real signs of distress, how.'
ever. and the people are living In hopes
that with the re.opening OF the canal
and the, cessation of the war, condl-
tons will rapidly improve.
On the island Of st. Croix the strike
which paralyzed the sugar industry
has been serious matter. The ISL
and, very much more SO than st. Thorn
as, is agricultural, and this years pro-
duction OF sugar and rum promises TO
be exceptional. Following the forma-
LlCu OIL b 1hDuT LAAG AohcAOA9 . va
the sugar estates commended that with
the increased prices for sugar they
should be paid more wages, but this
was refused by the planters. When the
strike began, thousands of the work
ers were turned off the estates, and
flocked, with personal belongings, to
the towns OF Fredericksted and Chris
tiansted, where, for the past month,
they have been living in tents an1
matched houses, and school build
ings.
Notwithstanding the unsettled con.
ditions, there have been few disor.
ders, except for a small amount Of
suspected incendiarism.
The government has recently pass
ed several bills looking to the improve
ment OF the laborers Of both islands
including the parcelling out among
them of small lots OF -Iand under GER
tain conditions. II these measures
are carried out they should improve
the situation greatly.

VOTES FOh
ElLlSzE ARMY.
Only One Nay Recorded
Against Resolution In
troduced Yesterday.

!. WASHINGTON, March ia joint
resolution authorizing the President
to bring the regular army up to full
strength by adding 19,447 men to ex-
listing organizations was passed in the
House late yesterday, without objec-
Ftion or debate aud with only ono dis.
senting. vote.
Representative Hay, chairman OF the
Military committee, had asked for inn
mediate consideration of the resolu-
ton, saying the step was necessary
on account Of demands of citizens
along the border for additional pro-
lection during the march of the punt
tive expedition into Mexico. There
was no objection and the resolution
was passed in five minutes.
I On the viva voce vote one nay
was heard. Minority Leader Mann de.
handed a rising vote, which resulted
236 to 1, Representative London, So
cialist, Of New York, voting in the
negative.
Representative Hay told the House
the administration had recommended
this plan rather than call for the MILL
tia or volunteers. The President want
ed to allay any suspicion, he said, that
the government sought to accomplish
anything in the Mexican expedition
except the pursuit of Villa.
The resolution will be called up IN
the Senate today.
The text df the joint resolution fol-
lows:
Resolved, by the Senate and
House Of Representatives in Con-
gress assembled, That whenever
in the judgment OF the President
an emergency arises which makes
1t necessary, all organizations OF
the army which are now below the
maximum enlisted strength al-
thorized by law, shall BIO raised
forthwith to that strength and
shall be maintained as nearly as
4, possible thereat SO long as the
emergency shall continue;
Provided, That the total enlist
ed strength Of any of said arms
OF the service shall not include IN?
sasigned recruits therefor, at de-
pots or elsewhere, but at no time
shall such recruits exceed by more
than 5 per cent. the total enlist
cd strength provided for such
arm; and the enlisted men now or
hereafter authorized by law for
other branches Of the military ser
vice shall be provided and main-
tanned without any impairment Of
the enlisted strength for any Of
said arms. .s-
The present strength of the army
is about $1,000 men. The additional
troops are desired to fill the places of
men who may be withdrawn from their
present locations for service in Mex
leo.

sHE the Creation has always fascinated
me- The story of Adam and Eve alone with
Garden of Eden has appealed my earliest
childhood
When Mr. Estes and married four years ago. found
that he had always opening chap
tiers OF the Old Testament and often discussed
modern Adam and Eve OF the

The contemplated and discussed with
friends the more interesting became questions
We studied phrase word of the
