REFERENCES TO PERIODICALS) _ON THE DANISH WEST INDIES. BY A. P. C. GRIFFIN, CHIEF OF DIVISION OF BIBLIOGRAPHY. Aa A X Ly WASHINGTON: GOVERNMENT PRINTIN@ OFFICE, 1901. __ on: ” : com 6 Al>Ub INTRODUCTION. The only authority in English dealing exclusively with the Danish West Indies appears to be C. E. Taylor’s ‘‘ Leaflets from the Danish West Indies: Descriptive of the social, political and commercial con- dition of these islands.” The author was for many years a resident of St. Thomas, and his work has the value of affording information acquired at first hand. The geographic manuals like Réclus’s ‘* The Earth and its inhabitants” and Stanford’s ‘‘Compendium of geography and travel” give good summary accounts of the history and natural features of the islands. The negotiations for the purchase of the islands in 1865-1869 are well set forth in James Parton’s ‘‘The Danish islands: Are we bound in honor to pay for them?” and in briefer form in Curtis’s ‘‘The United States and Foreign Powers” and Wharton’s ‘‘A Digest of the international law of the United States.” The proceedings of the Danish parliament are printed in the ‘‘ Rigsdagtidende.” A pamphlet by Dixon, ‘‘The St. Thomas treaty. A series of letters to the Boston Daily Advertiser,” reports the proceedings in Washington while the treaty was pending, and also contains the text of the treaty. The Danish colonial fiscal system in the West Indies is the subject of an essay by C. W. Tooke, printed in ‘‘ Essays in colonial finance by the members of the American Economic Association.” The tabulated statistics of the commerce and commercial regulations of the islands may be found in the publications of the Bureau of Sta- tistics of the Treasury Department and the Foreign Commerce Bureau of the State Department. The publications of the Statens statistiske Bureau of Denmark include statistical tables of imports and exports, merchant marine, and navigation. The various reports from our con- suls at St. Thomas have been noted in their proper place in this list. A. P. C.
