Scandinavian Nations
Planned to Cooperate

WASHINGTON, Sept. 19.-With the
expressed belief that The war would
soon be over representatives Of the
scandinavian countries st 8 conference
at Stockholm in July recommended that
the neutrals should take common action
10 save their interests both now and
after the war.
This information has been brought TO
Washington in dispatches which tell OF
an official memorandum issued by the
Swedish government, In which il was
pointed out that the neutrals had the
same interest in & lasting peace as the
belligerents and in the establishment OF
an international judicial regime, and
proposed that the neutrals arrive at a
mutual agreement concerning their
rights.
Among the subjects discussed at the
conference were the treatment OF sub
marines. dirigibles and airplanes, the
disposition by tho warning powers OF
neutral prizes, the right Of asylum for
prizes, the establishment and use OF
blacklists. the commercial policies OF
neutrals during and after the war and
the adjustment Of economic affairs.
II is understood that these confer
ences were the outsrowth of Swedish
PROPOSAL made at a meeting at Chris
tiana, Norway, in March, 1915, when
the Presidents Of the Council and Min
isters OF Foreign Affairs OF the Scandl-
nsvian countries were discussing the
policies Of neutrals during the war.
The questions were not taken up form
sllv until this year, when the Stock
holm meeting was held.

SoukhomlinoH Defends
Dismantling of fortresse.

PETROGRAD, Sept. 19.-Witnesses
in the trial of General Soukhomlinoff,
the former Russian Minister of War,
who is facing q charge OF high treason,
having concluded their testimony, the
general to-day wa, invited to give any
explanations he might wish to make.
The former minister appeared eX-
hsusted by the long judicial proceed
ings. Speaking In q weak, tired voice, he
endeavored to prove the necessity of
dismsntling Russian fortresses. for
which he had given orders. He de.
clared that, owing to the conditions OF
modern warfare, the fortresses long
had lost all their strategic importance
and would only have been traps for the
retreating troops.
"At the time Of the Russo-Turkish
campaign" he said. 81 gained the con
viction that provisional defensive works
constructed while hostilities were In
progress were of far greater practical
utility"
General SoukhomlinofF concluded by
saying that he never concerned him
self with politics, but worked exclusive
ly FOR the welfare of the fatherland.
