garding Dissolution
SPECIAL COMMITTEE REPORTS
BY Associated Press.

BY Associated Press.
STOCKHOLM, July 25-The cabinet
has resigned.
The resignation of the cabinet was
received without outward manifesta-
tions Of excitement. Crowds gathered
In the vicinity of the newspaper offices,
but there was no demonstration.
The special committee appointed by
the riksdag to deal with the crisis
which created the revolution today
delivered its report. The committee
declared unanimously that the govern
ment bill cannot be adopted in the
form In which it was presented to the
riksdag, and proposes that the riksdag
shall signify it's willingness to nego-
tiate with Norway for dissolution of
the union If the newly elected storthing
requests repeal Of the act of union
and dissolution of the union, or if
such request is received from Norway
after the Norwegian people by plebe-
scite have declared in favor of dis
solution of the union.
The committee reports that in the
event of dissolution Sweden should
insist upon the following terms:
First-The establishment of zone
on each side of the frontier, separat-
ing the Kingdoms, within which zone
Second-The right of pasturing REIN
deer belonging to- Swedish Laplanders
in North Norway.
Third-That the transit trade through
both countries shall be secured against
objectionaa obstruction.
Fourth-That the status Of Sweden
in respect to foreign powers as es-
tablished by treaty shall be clearly de-
fined so that Sweden shall be COM
pletely freed from responsibility for
Norway to other states.
The committee also regards an arbi-
tration convention between Sweden and
Norway as desirable, although 1t does
not consider 1t an essential condition
for the dissolution of the union
The committee further proposes to
authorize the government to raise a
loan of $25O0O,OOO which. can be by a

able for such readjustments and ar
rangements as may be necessitated by
the new conditions.
Regarding eventual negotiations with
Norway the committee declares that
whatever may be demanded for the
welfare and dignity Of Sweden as a
condition of the repeal of the act OF
union on the part of Sweden and OF
the recognition of Norway, must be
claimed and adhered to with rigor and
determination.

such moment; 80 has France. These
diniculties will disappear and Russia
will be stronger than ever. They are
merely passing difficulties, and It would
be unwise to attach too much import
ance to them"
Referring to the Chinese, Count Cas-

II like the Chinese. It takes years
and years of worry and trouble to
bring them around to your way Of
thinking or to induce them to enter
into any undertaking, but once con-
vinced they are loyal A Chlnaman's
word Is as good as his oath.
'I speak with all caution and circum-
spectlon, but am, nevertheless, afraid
that at no very distant date England
and America will have reason to regret
this war. They may have more to fear
from Japanese competition than from
Russia"
