A Christiania correspondent writes
that, warned by the success of the
German cruiser Berlin in entering the
Trondhjem harbor unchallenged, the
Norwegian admiralty has put in force
more stringent regulations with re-
gard to the entrance of ships into the
three fortified harbors of Christian
sand, Bergen and Trondhjem at night.
These new regulations provide that
no vessels, except line ships running
on schedule, may enter these barhors
during the hours of darkness. The
line ships must obtain in advance per-
mission to enter the. harbor from the
fortress commander.
