RATIFICATION OF
TREATY NOW UP
TO THE SENATE|
WASHINGTON, August 24.—The ;
ratification of the treaty whereby the i
United States takes over the Danish ■
West Indies is before the senate for
consideration- It is unlikely that
there will be opposition to ratification. :
Under the terms of the treaty the C
Danes who inhabit the islands will
not need to forego their allegiance to
the land of their nativity, hence their
will be no opposition from that quar
ter. In fact, the island residents fav
or annexation to the United States!
for commercial reasons.
The Danish West ln.l'es, a group of !
three islands, arc situated east of Tor- <
to Rico, belonging geographically to
the Virgin islands, the islands arc
St. Croix, St. Thomas and St. John,
with a total arra of 138 square miles.
Cultivation of sugar >s the chief r -
dustry, and the > rade of the islands j
is chiefly with the Unite i States and ;
Denmark. The ex jorts consist almost j
entirely of sugar and rum.
IT< group ni: hem practically au- ;
tonomous, the legislative power be- -
ing vested in two councils, one for ■
each of the two districts into which :
the colony is divided. Three-fourths ;
of the members are elected. The ex
ecutive power is in the hands of the .
governor general appointed by the
Danish crown. The revenue has been
derived principally from customs,
which were for years insufficient to
cover the expenditures.
The inhabitants, mostly negroes, in
1901 numbered 30,527. The Dan sn
element held almost all the offices.
The language most used is Spanish,
but English is generally spoken in the
ports.
Negotiations for the sale of the isl
ands to the United States began a
number of years ago, but a treaty of
sale was rejected in 1902 by the Dan
ish Parliament.
St. Thomas, one of the islands in ;
the Danish West Indies group, ha.
been considered an ideal coaling sta- <
tion. It was offered to the United [
States for $1,500,000 in 1870, but was <
declined. The question of the pur- i
chase was raised in recent years be- ]
cause of their importance to defenses
of the Panama canal. The natives
have frequently expressed their dis
satisfaction with Danish rule and
their desire to change their allegiance
to this country.
Baseball Games
to Be Continued
E en with the disappointment of
Seward failing to keep their agree
ment the baseball enthusiasm in An
chorage is still keen and with only a
few more weeks in which to finish the
city schedule all interest has centered
on the race for the flag. By winning
from the Junction the 13th the Com
mission team moved up in the per
centage column, and the race between
the City, Shamrocks and the Com
j mission is close and exciting.
The games at Recreation park will
be continued as long as weather per
mits, for the fans demand the sport
and there is still an indebtedness of
I something like $600 to be paid on the
{grand stand.
! The City and Commission teams
will play next Sunday afternoon at
I the park and the game will be called
at 2 o’clock. The loss of Captain
Nicholls and “Slim” Linn has mate
rially weakened the City team but
Manager Tracy has shifted the play
i ers around and promises to present a
; strong team. Van Devere will proba
bly pitch for the City, with either
'Thompson or Costello working for the
; Commission.
A movement was on foot to arrange
a Nicholls day and The Daily Times
volunteered to give all due space in '
the interests of this game, but aside |
from the original mention of the idea :
there has been no further action on ;
the part of the players. A game will j
be played Labor day in connection j
with the day’s sports, which will be a
part of the City league schedule and !
every available date will be used for a
game of baseball until the close of the J
season.
Don’t forget that social tonight at |
Presbyterian church. Cake3 like;
mother makes and candies like sister
makes. Come and bring your friends.
