SWEDEN is PREPARING TO ACT

COPENHAGEN, July 9.-All hope
that King Oscar or Crown Prince GUS
tave Will yield to the request of the
Norwegian Storthing to place Prince
of the house of Bernadotte ON the
throne of Norway has now disappeared,
according to a high authority. The
Danish royal family has also set the
stamp of disapproval on the acceptance
of the throne by a Danish Prince. 1t
is understood that arrangements are
actually being made for a national con-
vention and this Will inevitably result
I'm the formation of a republic.
According to well-informed persons here
Russia and Germany will refuse to recog-
nize the Norwegian Government until
King Oscar consents to the disruption
of the union. Strong efforts are being
made to secure similar action by other
Governments. including that of Denmark,
and it is said that these efforts are meet
ing with encouragement.
The Norwegian press and people, ac-
cording to adviceS received here, remain
singularly undemonstrative. Premier
Nicholson wants no demonstration and
to-day refused TO permit a large process
sion of Christianians in approval of the
action Of the Storthing. In refusing, the
Premier said: 1T is too early to claim
victory which has not yet been definitely
gained. Our most serious difficulties are
probably ahead"
Thousands of kilograms from all parts
of the world are pouring in on Premier
Nicholson and the Storthing, many of
them coming from the United States ana
South Africa.
King Oscar is quoted as saying that he
would avoid war at any cost. Officials
here say that the King and Crown Prince
had been fully prepared for the action
Of the Storthing by Premier Nicholson,
who informed them prior to his Majesty's
veto of the Consular bill as to the steps
Norway intended 10 take.

nounces as revolutionary.
BY this revolutionary proceeding" said
the Premier, 1.-The Storthing has, not only
without the cooperation OF the King, but
without the least consideration of Sweden
and on its own authority, determined
upon the rupture Of the union which ex-
listed by virtue of a mutual convention
drawn up in accordance with the laws
and which can in no way be broken with
out the assent of the two countries. In
asmuoh as the resolution of the Storthing
is a great and profound violation OF the
rights of Sweden, il is indisputably neces-
sary that the Riksdag be summoned in
extraordinary session without delay to
deliberate on the measures to be taken
nv Sweden in view of what has na SSed.R -
The resignation of the Ministers of
Sweden and Norway at Copenhagen,
Rome ana Madrid were rendered by tele-
graph and accepted.

Special Dispatch to The Call.

CHICAGO, June 9.-District Attorney
C. B. Morrison's continued absence in
Washington, where he has been con-
ferring with officials of the Department
of Justice, has given rise to the report
that unless allowed to continue the
beef investigation along the lines he
has mapped out his resignation would
be rendered to President Roosevelt.
This report gives rise to another to the
effect that the officials in Washington
refuse TO accept the view of the Dis
trict Attorney as to the Importance of
the evidence so far given and doubt that
it is strong enough to convict, should
indictments be returned.
In the meantime the Grand Jury is
carefully examining the evidence. 1t
is conceded by the local officials that
the Grand Jury will be compelled TO
await the return of the District Attor-
ney for advice as to whether or not the
proof Is strong enough to convict. 1t
is possible that the Grand Jury may
content itself with report and no in
