No Russo-Jap Alliance.
An eminent diplomat, in conversation
with the correspondent of the Asso-

OF Russo-Japanese alliance succeeding
the war, said hesconsidered that de-
fenslve agreement is entirely unlikely.
He said: elf Russia were still the
big end of the combination as was the
case when she rejected, against M.
Witte 8 advice. the alliance offered by
Japan to turn to Great Britain, an Of
fensive and defensive alliance might be
possible. But considering the fact that
the British alliance has rendered it pos
sible for Japan to fight Russia for the
establishment of her position in the far
east, I consider it out Of the question
that Japan will bind herself in such a
manner as might compel her to assist
the Russians in case the Russian en-

make an attack on India. This is the

land, former president of the Norwe-
gian council of state of Stockholm, who
will be indicted into his new office of
foreign minister of Norway on June
10, today said that special envoy
weeks to the great powers to seek the
recognition of the diplomatic and con-
suIar representatives of Norway.
Regarding the probable difficulties to
be encountered, Mr.. Loevland declined
TO express an opinion, but he said that
OF Norway to the powers and would go
20 them with the highest hopes as to
the successful result Of his mission. Mr..
Loevland said:
When our case is presented to the pow
ers it will be seen that it Is not one of
antagonism to the principles of mon
arches, nor to single monarchy. Nor
way has been a kingdom for many CEN
turtles and is proud of that fact. The dis
solution Of the union was purely on con-
stitutional grounds. Our constitution ex-
isted prior to the union with Sweden and
when there came a conflict between the
two peoples, Norway chose to retain her
constitution.
Difference with Sweden.
Our difference with Sweden is in the
AISt place VI dii GCOIlOiHlC CHdIdCtSI. oui
commercial interests, our tariffs and our
entire economic policy differ from those
Of Sweden. While the diplomatic and
consular services were based on ideas
governing the union of the two countries,
they worked to the profit of Sweden rather
than to that of Norway. Norway's mer-
chant marine now ranks fourth among
the nations and Norway no longer can af-
ford to negotiate with foreign powers thru
Hho ,,,,;or e
dissolved only when the conflict became
question of our sovereignty.
We hope the powers will make no mis-
take regarding our action. We have never
tried to create danger for Sweden and
will never seek to make difficulties Tor
our sister country. We are acting for the
benefit of the common interests of each
other and for our common safety IN the
face Of foreign danger.
Norway Ready to Fight.
The action taken by the storthing is
irrevocable and the powers should realize
the fact that Norway will fight before
this action is reconsidered. The question
of peace rests with Sweden, but the early
recognition of our independence will be
of interest to the powers as we'll as to
ourselves.
Immediately upon the dissolution of the
union, Norway informed Sweden Of its
willingness to open diplomatic relations,
but we are jealous of our independence
and of our future and will avoid all al
liances, and will not subject ourselves to
the influence Of any great power.
Mr.. Loevland said he thought that
Norwegian interests would not suffer
in the interim during which the coun-
try would not be represented abroad:
Fortunately, he said, Norway's biggest
trade was with Great Britain, Ger
many, the United States and France,
where for short period consuls were
not indispensable.
