House Hearing on Danish West Indies Talks Reopens
Washington April 3. The House special committee investigating the Danish West Indies negotiations resumed hearings. Abner McKinley and Colonel W C Brown testified that they had no substantive discussions about the matter with Captain Christmas and denied any direct talks with the President. Hansen described Christmas's 1899 disclosures and indicated willingness to act as counsel. Brown was asked to verify presidential intent and reported that the United States did intend to buy the islands. Senator Lodge was noted to have shown interest but Christmas said there was no need for him to stay, as the Danish minister would handle negotiations.
