NORWAY'S KING Is
ASKED TO RESIGN

CHRlSTIANIA, Norway, June /
The Norwegian Parliament today vo-
ted unanimously TO dissolve the union
which has existed for many years be-
tween Norway aud Sweden. This &C.
tion followed the refusal of King Oscar
to sanction the bin recently passed by
the Parliament providing for a separate
consular service for Norwsy,s bone of
contention between the countries for a
long time.
The present government will tempo
rarily assume the rights hich the
King has exercised.
The parliament also adopted an ad-
dress to the King, declaring that no
i'll will was entertained against him.
notifying him of the action taken and
asking the King to allow some prince
OF the Bernadotte house to assume the
Norwegian crown.
At the beginning of the session the
government officials informed the par
lament that they had decided to Ie-
linquish office from today. The par
lament thereupon unanimously adopt
ed this resolution
Whereas, his Majesty, the King has
declared himself unable to establish q
new government for the country. and
Whereas, the constitutional regal
power thus becomes imperative.
THE parliament authorizes the mem

tired today to exercise until further
notice as the Norwegian government,
the power appertaining to the King,
in accordance with Norwsy's oonstitu-

changes which are necessitated by the
fact that the union with Sweden un
der one King is dissolved in conse-
quence of the King having ceased to
act as the Norwegian King"
The belief is general that King Oscar
will yield and grant the demand. If
he does agree and appoint a prince OF

it is thought possible that he will Sc

FRANCE HAS VISIONS
OF BIG WAR

PARIS, June 7.-In an interview to
day with the correspondent high Off
cial made important revelations which
show that the present crisis in inter
national politics is really more dang.
erous to the peace of the world than
has appeared.
The statement shows that in official
circles it is felt that France faces a
crisis which threatens to plunge her
into war, and which may involve the
greater portion of Europe as we'll as
the United States.
The Moroccan question, which has
brought affairs TO head, so to speak
is really unimportant in comparison
with the other issues involved In
this statement the official said
The trouble is not in the Moroccan
question but it lies in a more remote
and more serious cause.
This Is the ambition of the Kaiser
to draw the continental powers togeth
er under the influence Of Germany in
view of an eventual conflict with Eng
land and the United States, which the
Kaiser considers inevitable.
Frances participation in this move
is necessary to this scheme.
Today we find ourselves facing the
alternative of choosing between Eng
land and Germany. The extreme
gravity of the situation is shown by
the fact that the German army is with
in 100 kilometers of Paris. Even if
England joined in the conflict she
would be unable to hold France TO
check the advance and once the first
blow was struck we would be at dis
advantage. We know, too. from the
experience of 1870. how little hope we
can place in the other powers
While it is stated optimistically hat
the resignation of NJ. Delcasse as for
eign minister has relieved the strain
the innermOst governmental circles
are far from reassured Fears are even
entertained that new complications
may arise to make the situation worse.

Ii Yang, China, May 9th, 1903.
To the AMERICAN No doubt
the above address will puzzle your
readers as it did all on board our ship,
as during our many trips up and down
the Yang tse Kiang River we never
before heard of the place. We left Nan
king at II a. IN. today and anchored
at the mouth of canal three miles
from here The American consul came
ON board, also a custom house Chinese
TO act as guide. Our party lett n four
| boats passing rice and wheat fields all
! the way. The place We came TO visit
| is on hill as high as bald top; on the
summit is large and wonderfully
| built Joss house. The steep sides are
| cuts and inches each containing a Joss
from one inch to fifty feet high. Many
| of the cuts are solid stone and paint
/ ed some few are still beautiful. (It is
one Of the lost arts. Everywhere are
/ ruins of large buildings, bridges and
/ arches, every evidence indicating that
| it was q magnificent aud wonderful
| place long ages ago. with paved walks
and streets. In one imposing building
! is a painting of man on a kind of
paper an inch thick and the reading
| translated gives the date 1900 years b.
| O. and it looks it.
After a most interesting tour of in
| spection we returned to our boats and
met the Villalobos. arriving at Nan
| king at p. III. Until this week no
Americans or Europeans ever saw or
even heard Of this place The Consul
told our Captain about it and asked
him to take our ship there. We were
the first foreigners to see this ancient
place and the Morning News readers
are the first in the United States to
read an account of the find. 1t is about
one mile square and originally Joss
house of most interesting structure and
I build. The name may not be entirely
/ correct, but as nearly so as | can trans
late it. 1t is not even on any Chinese
