1t became more and more clear
to observers yesterday that Swe-
den, as result OF the disclosures
of the United States department
of state OF the part that nation
has taken in the transmission Of
information relative to the depar-
ture OF neutral ships, will be COM
PEELED to make definite the posi-
tion which she Is to occupy ii she
is to be considered as a Neutral
country There is every indica-
ton that the Kpted natiors win
demand a statement from Swe-
den if one is notSol,tntarily pre-
sented. That was the position Of
yesterday, The Allied nations
were marking time and waiting
the next move OF Sweden which
was expected to be in the line Of
attempted explanation.
This position OF the Allies Is
taken to indicate that they are de-
termined to see that Germany
ceases receiving aid from the sup
posedly neutral nations Of North
crn Europe.
ARGENTINE WATCHED
At the same time careful atten-
ton is being given to the effect
which the astounding disclosures
may have upon Argentine, the
sufferer under the messages that
have been published, The pos
Sible effect which Argentine
would have upon the war should
the disclosure Of the perhdy Of
Sweden and Germany toward the
South american republic result in
final break with Germany and a
declaration of war is being care
fully considered,
AS a belligerent Argentine
might prevent reports OF great
value to Germany and Of equal
injury to the United States and
the Allies from reaching Berlin,
On the other hand if Argentine
shall determine to still remain
neutral she might send large
quantities Of her great wheat
store to the European ileutrals
under the operation Of the British
blockade. II
LONDON is WAITING =
Advices from London last night
Sald that the government there
was pursuing a policy OF watchful
waiting and expecting some sort
of an explanation from Sweden.
Upon what that explanation may
be will hinge the action which will
be taken by the United Kingdom

created a sensation and official cir
cles were unable to believe that
