It is believed that the Folke- thing will adopt the measure, as the tic parties, which have a majority, favor the sale. radical and social The Landsthing, or upper house, it is thought, is opposed ta the measure, the left party having joined the con- servatives, who desire to postpone con- sideration of the matter, During the discussion there excitement the house, some women among the shouted, “We will not sell!” Several of the ministers took part in the debate, and the statement was made in behalf of the government that neither damestic nor economic consid- cration but the international situa- tion, had brought the question to a Lead, and that if the sale was rejected the government would dissolve the Rigsdag and appeal to the country.

On the Tyrol front several tile attacks failed.” A portion of the foregoing official statement relating to fichting on Italian front: was received by by way of London last night. cated the taking of a plebiscite of the people of the islands, if that were possible. The conse Hin- leader strongly n opposed the sale, dec ring that a ma- jority of the party was against it. The minister of finance emphasized the international considerations which had brought the matter to a head, and declared that dissolution of the Rigs dag would follow rejection of the measure. Neither consideration of a demestic nature in the islands, nor cconomic gain had been the deciding factor. Already, in 1913, the govern- ment had received an offer for the purchase of the islands, but declined ta sell, as it had no desire to lower the Danish colors anywhere without co- gent reasons. Those who opposed the sale, the minister continued, had an easy task, Lecause the government was unable to unveil its chief arguments in favar of the sale. What should be done, for mstance, if the United States took possession of the islands? he asked. Should Denmark declare war against ihe United States or appeal ta Eu- rope? The government felt bound to submit to the desire of a great state. The government regretted that the colars had to be lowered, but when a hurricane was blowing one had to run before it The minister concluded by warning the house that responsibility for forc- ing clections, and the consequences a rostponement might invalve, would fall on the Rigsdag. 1tive rny delivered hos- the | cable Italian Success Grows in Importance.
