FINLAND.
When the Finnish landtdag had
been in session for two days it was
dissolved by an imperial ukase. Be-
fore the formal opening, the governor
general intimated to the speaker that
the car desired that the speakers re-
ply to the cars opening message
should contain nothing but express
Sions of the landtdag's sentiments of
respect and fidelity as prescribed by
the law of the landtdag. This law,
however, does not prohibit the inser-
ton of further matter in the speech,
and the speaker, with the landtdag' S
assent, found it necessary to add a
reflection on the present situation.
His reply ran: "Findland's landtdag
commences it's labors under circum-
stances saddened by continuance of
the new manner of reporting on Fin
nish affairs to our august monarch,
which is not in accordance with Fin
lands laws, and Is destructive in it's
effects. Trusting that humble repre-
sensations previously made by the
1andtdag and the Finnish senate will
not be left unconsidered, Finland
landtdag requests the governor gen
eral to convey to his imperial ma.

landtdag's sentiments of humble re-
spect and fidelity" The new cleo
tons will take place May /, and the
landtdag will reassemble June 1. The
main cause of the conflict between
the Firms and the Russian govern
ment is the insistence of the former
based on their constitution, on deal

ICELAND.

King Frederick has summoned the
political leaders of Iceland to Cop
enhagen to discuss the constitutional
relations of their country to Denmark,
a serious situation having developed
owing to the bitter opposition aroused
in the Icelandic althing to the pro-
posals made by the commission ap-
pointed to deal with the subject.
Hannes Hafstein, who sided with the
commission, recently was compelled
to resign his position as Danish min
lister for Iceland and head of the ad-
ministration, and was succeeded by
Bjorn Jonsson. The latter, who is a
well-known emancipationist, demands
the complete independence of Iceland.
This is looked Jpn as slap in the
face of the Danish king, whose pre-
rogative it has been to appoint the
Icelandic minister. Public opinion in
Denmark is strongly against toler-
ating any further opposition from Ice
land.
