ing almost to the Atlantic ocean. Now,
one OF the keenest pangs in Kussias UNI
versal appetite is TO reach the Atlantic,
and the shortest cut to 1t she could make
would be through the small intervening
stretch Of Norwegian territory. III Is
very far north, it Is true, but the At
lantic coast of Norway is swept by the
gulf stream, the harbors are good and are
free Of ice the entire year.
Russia does not let proposition of
of this sort rest as an idle dream. She is
at work, actively, secretly, and with great
cunning. The herring fisheries are the
chief support Of the SIMPLE people OF tins
part of Norway. Whales, iii search OF
food, drive the herring up the fjords,
where they are easily caught. Recently,
however, there have not been so many
whales, and not SO many herrings run up
the shallow inlets to escape their deep sea
enemies. Hence the fisher folk suffered
and times were very bad in the far north.
At this moment appeared Russian agents,
telling the Norwegian fishermen that their
government had neglected them in allow
ing the whales to be killed; that they
could expect nothing from the narrow
minded people at Chrlstiania in fact, that
their only hope was to become subjects
of the great car, who already wept at
their distress and longed to help them
News of what these agents were doing
soon reached Christiania and created a
great hubbub. A commission was at once
sent to inquire into the distress of the
fisheries. 1t found the distress. all right,
and came back with still more alarming
tales of Russian intrigue. The result was
a sort of game law to protect the whales,
that they might again drive frightened
herring up the fjords. Money was also APP
propriated to build the fishermen larger
boats, that they might pursue the herring
into deep water.
For the moment less is heard of Rus
sian designs, but still the intrigues go on.
Russian agents are busy arousing discon-
tent, making promises, laying mines which
they hope will explode some day into a
quarrel. Then the bears paw viii reach
out suddenly and tear away the northern
half of the Scandinavian peninsula from
its present owners, and the thing will be
accomplished before the majority of peo-
pie realize it was even possible.
Iiammerfest, the most northerly town in
the world, would then fall into Russian
hands.

THE ROYAL PALAC E AT CHRIsTIANIA

Observation-Disclosures questions in
Norway, outside of local squabbles over
the fitness of candidates, center in two
things jealousy of Sweden and fear of
Russia. When Russia gets a little more
dangerous and the fear increases, the Jeal-
Ousy will disappear altogether.
In Europe, where there is sectional feel
ing, it is almost sure to be due to differ
ence in language. This is abe case with
Norway and Sweden. For centuriefi Nor
way was attached to Denmark, and in this
period the Norwegians learned to speak
Danish, which today they speak with
greater force and precision than the Danes
themselves. The Swedish language ia SINH
lar, though sufficiently different to make
intercommunication difficult. Then the
Norwegians are proud of their own his
tory, of their own literature and of their
present enterprise and intellectual prog
ress.
AT the present time Norway has its
own parliament and system of govern.
ment, its own custom houses and even
its own flag, everything to itself except
its king and it's diplomatic agents, which
it must share with Sweden. Even the
army is seperate, there being only a treaty
with Sweden, by which if Sweden is at
tackled Norway must go to her assistance
with $4,000 men, while if Norway is at
tackled Sweden must help with her whole
army of $4,000 men, with reserves of $780,
900 men more.
Still the Norwegians are not altogether
satisfied. They have universal suffrage
and very progressive government, and
the Sweeds have a very restricted suf-
ferage and a conservative government. So
the more fiery Norwegian politicians re-
gard the Swedes are old fogies and talk
loudly of separation. The king is popu-
lar in both countries, however, and pre-
vents things from going too far. He has
a place in the heart of Christiania and a
country house in the nearby suburb
which he occupies frequently
In the last year or two new danger
has arisen in the far north which is slow
ly driving Norwegians jealousy of Sweden
into the background. Russia, whose de-
signs are soaring half the civilized nations
OF the world has not been SO busy else
where as not to cast hungry eyes on Nor
way. At the extreme north the Norweg-
ian frontier touches upon Russia. and

Passengers of the Clallam have asserted,
and their assertions have been widely pub

laden with women and children were being
put off, no signals of distress were dis
played.
There has also been much speculation as
to why Captain Roberts should neglect, as
he is said to have neglected, to inform
Captain Hall of the tug Holyoke that the

look after the safety of his remaining pass

.CLALLAM INQUIRY WHICH BEGINS
MONDAY WILL BE MOST RIGID

SEATTLE, Jan. 16.-The official inves-
tigation by the United States inspectors
into the causes of the Clallam disaster will
begin in this city next Monday morning.
1t promises to be the most important of
its character ever held in the Northwest.
inspectors Whitney and Turner declare
they will spare no pains to bring out all
the fact pertaining to the case, and Cap
tain Roberts, master OF the vessel, and
her owners and managers say they court
the most rigid inquiry.
One of the questions to be answered is
that as to the cause of the leak-whe-
Their the vessel opened up or not. Neither
Captain Roberts nor the owners have pub
licly expressed an opinion as to how the
Callam came to fill so quickly. What
their contention will be they decline to
state in advance of the inquiry.
STATEMENTS UNSATISFACTORY.
While many statements were made by
passengers and members of the crew in
explanation of how the Clallam filled so
rapidly, that to the effect that the water
came in through the broken headlights
was not accepted as satisfactory by marine
men generally. Their theory has been that
the Clallam opened up, and this is the
The contention of the Clallam's owners
and Captain Roberts will be that the yes
sci was of the strongest construction; that
she was well equipped and absolutely sea-
worthy.

Gibbs, representing the Marine Under
writer's association, and Messrs. Walker
and Hills. Lloyd's agents, yesterday made

pany is building at Tacoma. The vessel
is being built by Heath and under the
same plan of construction as was the Clal-

After his return from Tacoma last night
Captain Whitney said:
1--WE found the work on the Jefferson
satisfactory to us in every respect She
is one of the strongest built vessel
ever saw. The same plan and methods OF
construction were employed on the Clal-
lam.
CLALLAM LEAK A MYSTERY.
at is impossible for me to understand
how vessel built as, the Clallam was
could have sprung aleak. It's mystery
how she took so much water in so short
a time"
A seafaring man who does not subscribe
to the theory that the Clallam sprung
aleak and also discredits the story that
enough water flowed through the dead
lights to put out the fires and sink the
vessel, last night said:
Sometimes the arrangement of the
valves in the pipes of a vessel are such
that if valve should accidentally be
left wholly or partially open. water would
back in from the sea and fill the vessel
to considerable depth before it would be
noticed. That may have been dow the
Clalam filled with water"

which the Callam disaster originated, the
inspectors are prepared to go thoroughly
into the conduct Of Captain Roberts, his
