|SHOUT REVISION TO

Eastern Forces Detected in a
/ Scheme to Throw Dust in
Eyes of Public.
BY w. w. Jermane.

Washington, Sept. 16.-Within two
weeks there has been an active move
mcnt in the east to create sentiment
in favor of revision, of tariff at the
next session of congress. This move
ment originated in the New York Sun,
and it has later appeared in the Pitts
burg Gazette, Indianapolis News, and
the Courant for many years have been
stnch republican organs, and the
Gazette is published in the heart Of
the strongest stand-pat section of the
country.
Some wonder has been expressed by
eastern men at this violent outbreak
Of revision talk in these newspapers
and an effort has been made to explain
it.
An explanation which seems to fit
the case has been found by Representa-.
tive Bede OF Minnesota, who believes
this revision talk has back Of it de-

may be regarded as almost settled and
that both sides are directing their eff

blad's correspondent remains doubtful,
He declares it is too early for hopeful

More Hopeful in Christiania.
Christiania, Sept. 16.-It is semi
officially announced that the present
military movements are merely the
customary relief for the garrisons of
the Notifications and permanent camps.
The tension here is greater than ever.
All day crowds fill the streets in front
OF the newspaper offices, eager for
news from Karlstad. The fact that
the conference has again adjourned is
regarded as a good omen, and the feel
ing OF Pessimism is giving way to hope,
especially as it is believed here that
Norway has the moral support of Great
Britain. A strong conviction prevails
that war will not be permitted by the
powers. 1t is expected that an arbi-
tration treaty will be secured and a
compromise will be arranged regarding
Sweden's demand for the dismantline
of the fortresses.

. DIE IN FIERY
BLAST B And PANIC
Deadly Explosion Destroys Fuse
Works and Kills Fleeing
.# Employees.

r, Avon, Conn, Sept. 16.-The list of
deaths 9 by the explosion and fire which
destroyed the Climax fuse works here
yesterday now numbers nine, two Of
the injured having died during the
night. Another of the Injured ones is
not expected to live. .-.-1:e -
The explosion Of a fuse, followed by
a lire, caused panic among twenty en-
ployeess in the building. There was no
way of coping with the flames, which
soon spread rapidly, and in less than
an hour after the explosion those who
were unable to escape were in the
clutches of a fire that eventually
burned their bodies to ashes.
The exact cause of the accident may
never be known, but it is the accepted
theory that in an effort to burn out a
stoppage in one Of the machines a
workman caused an explosion of fuse
with the hot iron he held in his hand.
Those who were in the room where
the explosion occurred say that the ex-
plosiOn was not severe and ordinarily
would not have caused a panic. In
fammable material, however, was set
on fire, and in a few moments the room
was afame. g% a. IA u.s. "
In an instant there was a mad rush
for the doors and windows, and durin
the scramble many were pushed back
into the building, while others were
severely burned. There were only sixty
hands at work in the. entire plant. S
The property loss was estimated to.
day at from 100000 to $15O,O0O. -Four
buildings were destroyed. = -

PEACEFUL ISSUE, SAYS HJARNE
Leading Swedish Historian Interviewed
in London.

London, Sept. 16.-Professor Harald
Hjarne, a member Of the Swedish riks-
dag, a leading Swedish authority on
history and member Of the faculty of
the Upsala university, is here. He has
always been stickler for Sweden g
rights over Norway, basing his posi-
tlon on the claim that the act of union
was granted by Sweden, a victor, to
Norway, conquered country. Never
that there will be no war and that
the independence of Norway will be
granted. He thinks Norway will agree
to the demolition of the forts and that
an arbitration treaty will be arranged.
his idea is that each country might
appoint two arbitrators and ask Presi-
dent Roosevelt, as the great peace
maker, to name the fifth. He said:
The president of the United States
is the chief of an altogether disinter-
ested power, and if we ask him to aid
IN the arbitration Of the differences
between Sweden and Norway, no one
| could object, as he is looked upon as
the universal peaeemaker. If the pres
emit negotiations fail, there will be a
deadlock for a time, but if the Norwe-
glans' cross the frontier of Sweden we
must defend ourselves.
Sweden is asking for demolition
! OF the forts simply because they might
be used sby power allied with Nor
way against Sweden. All that Sweden
asks is that Norway leave her in peace.

SWEDISH FARMERS
IN HUGE COMBINE.
Agricultural Trust Formed to
Control Purchases Dealers
Alarmed.

Special Cable to The Journal.
Stockholm, Sweden, Sept. l6.-nDur,
ing the past week an agricultural
trust, or cooperative association, has
been formed in Sweden, to promote
both the selling and buying interests
of Swedish agriculturists. Seven local
associations of; this kind have already
joined the national association, and
i've more are expected to Join it in the
near future. ~.
The local associations which have
already amalgamated with the ma
..tional association. represent about
1900 agriculturalists, who purchase
five or six million crowns worth Of
commodities every year. The other
five local associations, which are soon
expected to join, annually purchase ten
million crowns worth Of goods. This
will enable the National Agricultural
association to purchase such enormous
quantities of commodities that it will
control the market and give it's mem
bers an opportunity of purchasing at
prices far below the present Wholesale.
The association intends to institute
direct steamships lines to different parts
of the world for the exclusive transpor-
tation of goods purchased by the asso-
citation, thus being entirely independ-
ent Of freight fluctuations. This
mighty octopus is looked upon with
fear and trembling by Swedish mer-
chants. It's capital is already paid in
full, and it will begin work at once.

GEN. GRANT SCORES Z.
ANTI.CANTEEN LAW

Washington, Sept. 1e.-Strong Ian
guage is used by General Frederick D.
Grant, IN command of the department
Of. the east, with headquarters at Gov
ernor's Island, in condemning the legis-
lation abolishing the canteen. General
Grant says:
1t is my belief that fully Is per. cent OF
these trials were due' to the Use Of bad
liquor, dispensed to our soldiers by per-
sons who conduct sdens of. vice in the
vicinity of military posts. These depraved
creatures use every device in their power
to induce the soldiers to patronize their
brothels, where those who yield to tempta.
ton are frequently drugged and robbed E.
It is distressing that the prosperity o.
the Keepers OF vile resorts is due to the
activity of good and worthy, tho mis-
guided citizens, who have succeeded il
abolishing the canteen in the army With
the establishment of the canteen, which
was the soldiers club, the influence O.
these sdemoralizing resorts near arm,
posts would be greatly reduced, ant
many Of them would soon disappear.

to departmental business, after which
he will go to New York and thence to

Will be in Minnesota until the latter

Mr.. Bede says he is well pleased with
recent conferences in St. Paul regard
ing, the upper Mississippi river reser-

highly educational. Men who came
with violently conflicting views went
away with confidence in one another g
honesty and respect for one another s
views. Nobody wants the reservoirs
abandoned and Mr.. Bede thinks that
if anything is done it will be in the
direction of increasing the number of
dams so that the water for two sea-
sons may be stored. This would make
