DISRUPTION OF UNION
WAR THREATENED BETWEEN
NORWAY AND SWEDEN.
Erince Regent Expresses Desire to
Lead the Swedes Against the Nor
wegians-3oth Countries Increas-
ing Their Military Forces-Resort
to Arms Is Predicted.

Christiana, March 16-Sixty Leftists,
members of the storthing, the legisla-
tive assembly of Norway, have declined
an invitation to dine with the Swedish
Crown Prince Gustaf, who is acting as
regent OF Sweden and Norway during
the absence of King Oscar II, who is in
southern France, seeking to recuperate
his health.
The refusal Of the Norwegian legis-
lators to accept the hospitality of the
regent is doubly significant, as empha-
SIZING the resentment provoked in Nor
way by a recent saying OF the crown
prince in public meeting at Stock
holm, that he would not object to lead
the Swedes against the headstrong
NorwegianS in a resort to arms TO set
tie the quarrel between the two coun-
tries, and as. the most striking indica-
ton OF open enmity to Sweden which
has been shown in Christiana of late.
a few night ago, while the crown
prince was returning from the Military
club in Cbristiana. he met a crowd of
people who hooted him and pelted him
with snowballs. The Norwegian papers
condemned the demonstration, describ-
ing il as in any event a purely per
snnal incident. But the refusal of the
members Of the storthing to dine with
the regent has wider bearings and is in
the nature of political protest against
the continuance of the union with
Sweden.
In spite of the action of the storthing
last winter in legalizing the adoption
of the separate Norwegian flag, an
overwhelming majority of the people of
Norway bitterly opposes the existing
regime. OF late, in both Norway and
Sweden, there has been an increase of
military and naval forces, with clearly
one object in view-to support, if neces-
sary, by arms, all claims which may
lead to an entire separation of the two
countries.
The opposition to the continuance of
the union is stronger in Norway than
in Sweden, but even the Swedes con-
tend that the existing union, which
rests upon the riksakt, or greater char
ter, without prejudice to the separate
government, constitution and laws of
each country, cannot be continued
without notifications of a radical char
acter. Norway's political grievance is
that she is deprived Of her just share
in the common government, but the
principal grievances are of commercial
origin and provoked by the foreign
trade interests of the two countries.
Their commercial policies are diamet-
rically opposite, Sweden having adopted
protection and Norway free trade.

MINERS FIGHT IN ALASKA
PITCHED BATTLE BETWEEN
AMERICANS AND CANADIANS.
One American and Three Canadians
Killed-Result of Enforcement of
British Columbia Alien Law.

New York, March IA special dis
patch to the World from Vancouver, B.
c., says: Carl Slummerfelt, a German,
who was a passenger on board the
steamer Lees, which has arrived here
from the Lynn canal, brought the
news that a battle had been fought be-
tween American and Canadian miners,
a few miles off the Dalton trail. Four
me mare reported to have been killed
outright and a number Of others are
said to have been seriously wounded.
When the alien mining law OF British
Columbia was enforced a few months
ago, the American miners left Attn, q
new Canadian gold district, and struck
north. They found, q short distance off
the Dalton trail, on PorcEpine creek, a
district rich in placer gold. 1T was
generally conceded that the new placerS
We're in American territor-7, and the
miners vowed that no Canadian should
stake claim. Some Canadian mount
ed policemen. however, did stake claims
on the American territory and justified
their act by moving the Canadian flag
from Mount Pleasant, on the trail, so
as to make the line take in a rich part
OF the district. They We're followed
by at least forty Canadian miners, who
all located good claims.
A fortnight ago about 100 miners held
a meeting and decided to send notice
to the Canadians to leave the country
within four days. The notices were
sent out, but no hSed was paid them.
Slummerfelt, who left the Porcupine
river district two weeks ago, says:
Early on the morning of the sixth
day the American miners met and pro-
ceeded to the Canadian camp. / don't
believe they intended bloodshed, al
though they were fully armed Before
they could even state the object of their
visit, some one, L don't know from
which party, fired a shot, and then
every one seemed to be shooting. Sew
eral rounds We're fired and four men,
I was told, were killed outright-an
American and three Canadians.
The battle was very brief. and re-
suited in the Canadians, about fifty in
number, flying across the border"
