THE HAGUE. April 22. Dispatches from
Castle Loo announce that the condition of
Queen Wtlhelmtna, according to her physi
cians, continues to be satisfactory.
This morning's news -, from Castle Loo
leads to the Impression that favorable
change occurred in the .queen's illness
which made it possible that the affairs cf
state will soon resume their normal course.
The rumors of the intention of the gov

ABOUT TO VOTE ON TREATY
Danish . Legislators Approach Final
Action oat Sale of West ' .
Indira. .
Copenhagen! Aprii'22. TheLandsthin'g
today considered In open session .the treaty
providing for the sale of the Danish West
Indies to the United States. The foreign
minister, Dr. Dcuntzer, made a strong pro
sale speech, covering the various arguments
of the opposition against the sale of the
islands. He caused a sensation by reading
statements from the United States official
publications showing that , Estrup, the
leader of the opposition, .offered to sell, the
Islands to the United States In 1892, when
Estrup was prime minister and minister of
finance.
Dr. Deuntier also ridiculed the fear cf
the opposition that the United States con
gress might refuse to appropriate $5,000,000
to purchase the Islands and controverted
the arguments against the treaty because It
did not convey citizenship and free trade
to the Island, pointing out that the Danish
constitution does not extend to the Islands
and that Denmark does not enjoy free trade,
while, he added,' a recent decision of the
supreme court of the United "States insured
the islands Immediate free trade with the
United States. ;
Former President Redtz-Thott, and the
ministerialist leader, Madseb Mygdal, fol
lowed, praising the growth of the liberal In
stitutions In the United States and declar
ing that tha sale insured the prosperity of
the Islands. 5.
It Is expected that the vote will be taken
tomorrow.

who have the knowledge necessary to con
vict. 1 shnll personally Investigate these
reports and if I am able to secure any re
liable and tangible evidence that bribery
has been done In Kansas City duting the
course of the last three years, the period
covered fy the statute of limitations, 1
shnll Ssk Judge Vo(Tord to summon a
special grand Jury for the Investigation of
the charges.
I am confident, however, that no such
disgraceful condition exists In Kansas tlty
as was found In St. l.otils. Still, If thla
crime has been committed, then both the
brlbe-glver and the bribe-taker should be
Sent to the penitentiary.
Talk abnjt bribery aniong public officials
In Kansas City has been common. There
has been talk of selling votes outright and
members of the city government have been
accused of being In tno employ of corpora

guaranteed to be sure cures for any form of
kidney trouble but at best they only gave
roe temporary relief. Finally I gave up
searching for a remedy, but as my back
ached and there was too frequent action of
the kidney secretions. It struck me If
