DANISH ISLANDS TO PASS
OVER TO THE L. $.

Washington, Jan. 16. - Sovereignty
over the Danish West Indies, after
lalf a century of negotiations, will
pass to the United States with the
,hasa treaty by Secretary Lansing
md Danish Minister Brun. The ac-
ual physical transfer, with the rails
ng OF the American flag, will TAX
Jiace pom payment of the $25,0000 00
,urchase price, which congress Will
provide in a few weeks.
During the interim, the goernment
i the islands will be administered by
he present Danish governor. Under
ohe terms of the treaty a joint COM
mission is to begin work Immediate
ly.
The qcstion of the permanent form;
II government and of name must be
-rranged by corgl ess. probably on
he lines of the Foraker act, under
which the territory of Porto Rico was
.cqired. AS the new government was
lclired practically at the instance of
lie navy department that department
is anxious to be placed in absolute
control.
rhe war department, however, be-
ing already equipped with proper ma
:hinery for administering insular
possessions, is likely to pit in a claim
also for the administration.
1t is probable that a joint board of
army and navy officers will be sent
to the islands soon to concert meas
ures for the military protection of
the group and for the immediate es-
adjustment of a naval station.

WILSON'S PEACE NOTE Is
PLEASING TO POPE BENEDICT

Washington, Jan. 17.-Congratula-
ions from Pope Benedict XIV on the
recent peace move of the American
government were conveyed to Presi-
.ent Wilson today by Juan Riano, the
spanish ambassador. The Pope sea-
10 suggestions for future moves. The
Message was conveyed through the
spanish ambassador, because the Pa
pal legation here ha no diplomatic
status.
On its own account, the Spanish
government has already replied to
President Wilson's peace note, taking
he position that it would do nothing
or the present.
In response to a request by Presi-
lent Wilson, the Spanish ambassador
later in the day cabled his govern
ment to convey the thanks of Presi-
lent Wilson to the Pope.

Tributes TO DEWEY BY }
WILSON AND DANIELS

Washington, an. 1S.-When news OF
Admiral Dewey's death was received
at the white house, President Wilson
authorized the following statement:
In expressing his grief at the death
of Admiral Dewey, the President said
the whole nation viii lmourn the loss
of it's most distinguished naval Off
Ger, a man who has been as faithful
as intelligent and as successful lin the
performance of his responsible duties
in time of peace as he was gallant
and successful time of war. 1t is
just such men that gives the service
distinction and the nation a just
pride in those VIII OSerYe it,"
Secretary Daniels paid this tribute
up TO the very last, Admira,
Dewey kept in touch with every
movement of progress not only in our
navy, but Throughout the world. On
Wednesday afternoon last, just before
| left the department, he paid me a
call and looked hale and hearty. /
thought he would be spare dto us for
many years. His death is an irrepar-
able los stO our country, but the
American people will ever cherish
his memory.
His counsel has meant more to me
than words can express. His advice
TO me since | have been secretary of
the navy was more like that of a
rather to'a so nthan o ia high rank
ing navy officer to a government off
cial."
Despite the aged officers youthful
appearance, it became known durinG
The past few days that the first evil
dence of weakening of his splendid
constitution came about IS months
ago when he suffered slight paraly-
tic stroke. At that time the physician
who was called to the house found
him sitting in an easy chair in some
distress, and showing a slight thick
ness of speech and dilated pupils
which were at once diagnosed as
symptoms of paralysis.
The attack yielded to treatment,
but 1t was DENIED Hnwise to permit
the admiral to make his usual sum-
mer visit to the New England coast.
secretary Daniels placed the naval
yacht, Mayflower at tn eadmiral's dis
posal' and he returned to Washington
after a cruise up the coast and a stay

usual health.
