BERLIN DIsCREDITS REPORT.
Officials Know Nothing of German
Swedish Alliance.

Berlin, July 15.-The substance OF
the statement made at Stockholm to
the effect that GermanSwedish al
lance was seriously contemplated was
submitted to the foreign office here
during the day and the authoritative
statement was made that the question
Of an alliance between Germany and
Sweden had never come before the
foreign office, nor had 1t been dis
cussed to the slightest extent. or
course the foreign office could not deny
that Emperor William and King Oscar
had spoken of an alliance during their
interview at Gefie, because the sub
jects of their conversation are not
known here.
The German governments policy. as
the Associated Press is informed, is
one of complete aloofness almost OF
indifference. 1t is expected here that
as a result of the meeting Of King Os-
car and Emperor William Germany
will be described in some countries as
taking undue interest in Scandinavian
affairs and as seeking for a way to in
fiuence settlement Such an idea
is disavowed In advance.
