ROYAL ALLIANCES
William IS Son Will Be Related to Near
ly All European Monarchs.

While it is generally stated that the
to Duchess Cecile of Mecklenberg-
Schwerin is a real love match, it is
quite true that the marriage will open
to the future emperor of Germany a
long line of alliances, as the young
lady is connected in some way or other
with the reigning houses of Germany,
Denmark, Great Britain, Russia and
Holland.
The present Duke of Mecklenberg-
Schwerin, Frederic Francis Nv, sue
ceeded to the dukedom in April, 1897,
but, being a minor, his uncle acted as
guardian until 1901. He married last
June the Princess Alexandra, second
daughter Of the Duke of Cumberland.
The sister of the Duchess Cecile, also
named Alexandra, married Prince
Christian of Denmark. Prince Chris
tian is the eldest son of Denmark g
crown prince, and the duchess will
eventually be queen of Denmark if
she lives. Prince Carl brother of
Prince Christian, married Princess
Maud of Wales.
The mother of the grand duke and
the Duchess Cecile was Anastasie, a
daughter Of the Grand Duke Michael of
Russia.
It will be seen that by the marriage

NO FRICTION IN
SCANDINAVIA
NEGOTIATIONS OVER CONSULAR
: SERVICE STILL ON.
King Oscar Will Tell the storthing All
About It-Explanations Given for
Swedish Warships Hitting the Bot
tom of the Ocean.

There is no truth in the reported ru-
mors that the negotiations between
Norway and Sweden over the ques-
ton of a. separate consular service for
the former country have been aban-
doned. Still no progress has been made
for several months. At a meeting of
the councillors of state at Marstrand
recently, King Oscar assumed that the
matter, would be continued along the
same lines. The Norwegian storthing
will convene next month, and it is ex.
!pected that the king, in opening the
parliament, will then refer in, detail to
The status Of the negotiations. ><
It is generally conceded that there is
strong opposition in Sweden against
allowing Norway to have her own way
in this matter, tho many prominent
people concede that Norway, as a SOW
ereign state, can hardly be denied the
right to maintain her own consuls to
promote her extensive commercial in
terests. t.. ,.. %..-
The committee appointed by the Nor
wegian department Of commerce to
draft plan for consular department
has practically completed it's work and
its report will be submitted in the near
future.

Enormous Dividends.

The Krag-J orgensen Rifle company of
Norway has been dissolved, principally
because the United States had aban-

in other countries are of doubtful value
This company, which began operations
Oct. l, 1897, had phenomenal success
The dividends for the first year
amounted to 80 per cent Of the capital
and rose one year to the remarkable
