RUMoR OF HITCH AT KARLSTAD
Return of Norwegian COmmissiOner
to Christiania Gives Rise to
Serious Humors.

CHRISTIANIA, Sept. S.-Wlth the return
today from Karlstad of the Norwegian
commissioners sent to discuss with the
the dissolution of the union, a decided
sense of uneasiness prevails and this is
acCentuated by the complete silence OBJ
sery ed in official circles regarding the
progress Of the negotiations.
Even in the most pacific circles the sit
uation is looked upon as having an ele-
ment of danger and the prevailing nerv-
BUSINESS has been Increased by the tone
of the Swedish newspapers, which are
now calling upon the government to
mobilize 10000 troops, at the same time
to command 10000 troops. While the
Swedish Rlksdag demanded that the
"fortresses recently erected be no longer
maintained" the Swedish newspapers in
sist that the fortifcations of the old
fortresses of Fredriksten and Kongsvinger
shall be destroyed. No suggestion could
be made which would more deeply wound
the national principle of the Norwegians.
Kongsvinger is thirty miles from the
frontier and holds a manding posi-
tion for the defense of Chrstiania, the
richest section of Norway, while the cor
responding zone in Sweden, It is pointed
out is "unimportant and has never been
fortified"
Responsible persons here say that the
arrogant tone adopted by the Swedish
press. unless 1t is modified, is likely to
lead to serious developments.

There is no accounting for the jump In

enough for the man to have contracted the

country reported today was by Dr. Brady,
who discovered a nest Of twelve cases on

New Orleans and another case two miles

arrested week ago on a charge Of failing
to report cases Of yellow fever. Before the

he would plead guilty to one Of the three
