KARIsrAp. Sweden, Sept. ls.-The con-
ference of Swedish and Norwegian dele
gates to arrange for q dissolution OF the
union between the two countries resumed
to day, but adjourned until tomorrow.
Nothing can be learned Of the progress OF
the negotiations.
CHRIsTIANIA, Sept. ia serious view
Is taken here of the stu alton. 1t Is feared
that the deadlock arising from Sweden's
insistence upon the demolition Of the forts
on the Norwegian frontier cannot be broken.
Many alarming rumors are current, but
none Of them can be substantiated. The
Government is silent. Hope Of salts
factory settlement, however, has not been
abandoned.
STOCKHOLM, Sept. is.-There is con-
siderable anxiety over the outcome OF the
conference at Karlstad as Norway il re-
ported to be infexiby opposed to Sweden =.
demands, especially those regarding the
demolition Of the forts on the frontier. The
Swedes profess to have the most peaceful
intentions, but they talk rs though rup-
ture cannot be avoided unless Norway
yields. There is nothing official to support
the alarmist reports.
LONDON, Sept. 1.-THE Express and the
Mail treat the Scandinavian deadlock
as a sensational story. They represent
the two countries as being on the brink Of
war. According to the Stockholm corre-
spondent of the Mail the Norwegians are
massing troops on the frontier. The Swedes
are expected to mobilize their forces ron
Thursday. Dense and anxious crowds
throng the streets.
In a later despatch the same correspon-
dent transmits a Karlstad rtlmor that the
Norwegians have accepted Sweden's terms.
but the situation is not clear.
A despatch to the ErIress from Chris
tlania says that Norway is determined
to maintain her rights. Serious develop
ments can be looked for II Sweden persists
in her bellicose attitude. All palties in
Norway are opposed to war, but every
able bodied citizen will cheerfully obey
call to arms rather than surrender his
principles. The situation Is undou bte edly
exceedingly critical.
Despite the foregoing and other ugly
rumors, it Is gathered from more conserva-
tive dispatches that the position. although
strained and difficult. is in no wise hopeless.
The stories OF Swedish and Norwegian
notifications are authoritatively and en-
phatically denied. The absence of an
official statement concerning the progress
Of the negotiations at Karlstad seems to
be largely answerable for the excitement.
According to the Tsleoraph's Gothen-
Burg correspondent, it is expected that
the crisis will be settled by Sweden ac-
oepting Norway's proposal for an arbitra-
tiOn treaty.

PRESIDENT MAY DROP LEIB.
Assistant United States Treasurer at Phila.

Assistant UnlteO St9teb treasurer ~ Fnuas
delphia Too Active in Politics.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 1s.- fractional
troubles in the Republican party Of Schuyl-
kill county, Pa, are likely to lead to the
separation from the Federal service Of
William s. Leib. Assistant Treasurer OF
the United States at Philadelphia. Presi-
dent Roosevelt has decided to call upon
Assistant Treasurer Leib for his resigna-
tion, and Mr.. Leib's friends have been told
so, but it Ia learned to-day that definite
action may he deferred for several weeks.
Mr.. Leib is chairman Of the Republican
county committee OF Schuylkiu county,
and he incurred the displeasure Of some
OF the other leaders in the late campaign.
The quarrel became bitter. and the Penn
sylvania Civil Service Association took
a hand by complaining to President Roose-
welt that Mr.. Leib, considering his official
position under the Government, had been
perniciously active In politics. An inves-
tigation by the Federal Civil Service Com
mission followed. and the commissien's
report to, the President is unfavorable
to Mr.. Leib.
at Philadelphia for the last three or four
years and his salary IL 800 a year, the
Assistant Treasurership in that city being
much less important than the one In New
York. He has been prominent Republican
in Sohuylkill county for several years and
was appointed to Office on the recommenda-
ton Of the late Senator Quay and Senator
Penrose.
TAMAQuA, Pa; Sept. l3.-Congressman
George 8. Patterson was seen here at 10
O'Clock tonight while on his way from
Washington to his home in Ashland and
when asked whether there was any truth
in the report that w. s. Ieib, Assistant
Treasurer at Philadelphia, had been asked
to resign, said: Il want you to say for me
that Mr. Leib has not been asked to resign
and will not be asked to resign"
PHILADELPHIA, Sept. l3.-Great interest
attaches here to the Leib charges, as polti-
clans figure that the determination Of Leib's
case may show how President Roosevelt
leans in struggle between Senator Boies
Penrose's Republican machine and Mayor
Wea YER and the latter's followers In the
State. Ieib is Penrose's lieutenant in
Schuylkill county.
Recently political opponents went into
court and in sensational affidavits asked
that Ieib be restrained from using money
collected from officeholders and candi-
dates to control the primaries. The in
junction was dismissed, but IL served its
real purpose by drawing the attention OF
Washington to Isib's prominence In poll
tics. Since then he has been under fire.
