The revelations made at the esplon-
Age trial which has been In progress
ut Stockholm for couple OF months
have caused considerable anxiety in
Sweden That Russia has been active
in securing secret information as to
Sweden's defenses at points that
would be crucial In case OF a
Russian attack, can no longer be
doubted. One OF the prisoners who
has testified at the trial-a young man
named Holsteinson--told of the activ-
ity OF Assanovitch, the Russian mill
larry attache at Stockholm, who was
recently transferred by his govern
ment on account Of the espionage
charge against him. 1t was Holsteln-
ron who arranged the connection be-
tween Assanovitch and Toerngren,
the Swedish officer, who gave out Sc
cret information as to the Swedish
navy, as already related in this col
umn. Holsteinson testified that he
saw In Assanovitchs possession nu
merous tin boxes containing maps and
charts of Swedish military works and
defenses. Special attention was given
to the capacity of roads for bearing
artillery and to the strength OF
bridges. Navlgable passages were
marked and points indicated where
vessels could make safe landings.
More important still, there was a
plan, designed by Assanovitch. for ad-
vancing upon Sweden. The head
force was to attack Hernosand and a
smaller one Savle.

During the last few days, says a
Stockholm correspondent, couple of
persons have been arrested in Stock
holm, who said they were from Persia,
trying to collect money for some re-
ligious cause. What their real mis-
sion is has not yet been discovered.
They were found to be we'll supplied
with the maps of the general staff
and not at all equipped as the farmers
they declared themselves to be. But
they may not be spies. AS to the
saw-grinders who have been arrested
frequently and put out of the country,
It is not certain what their business
has been. Regarding them, the for
mer Russian ambassador in Stock
holm, Savinsky, said to a journalist:
why should We be so stupid, II We
really wanted to spy, as to disguise
tho spies as saw-grinders who are now
generally under suspicion" II is prob
able that the saw-grinders are inno-
cent and that the spies are otherwise
disguised.

without saying that the suffrage ques-
