Norway Breaks From Sweden.
The storthing of Norway yesterday, declared that the union between Sweden and
Norway had been dissolved, and that King Oscar has ceased to act as king, of Norway.
The storthing has virtually dethroned the king and empowered the present state couifcil to
act as the government of Norway.
r l he Norwegian declaration of independence is short and is as follows;
“Whereas, all the members of the-Council of state have laid down their offices, and
“Whereas, his majesty, the king, has declared himself unable to establish anew
government for the country, and
“ Whereas, the constitutional regal power thus becomes inoperative, the storthing
authorizes the members of the council of state who retired today to exercise until furthei
notice as the Norwegian govemrent the power appertaining to the king in accordance with
Norway’s constitution and existing laws, wiflr those changes which are necessitated by the
fact that the union with Sweden under one king is dissolve and in consequence of the king
having ceased to act as a*Norwegian king."
An address to the king* has been adopted. It declares that no ill feeling exists
ngainst him, his dynasty or the Swedish nation, and asks him to co-operate in the selection
a young prince of the house of Bernadotte to occupy the throne of Norway. King Oscar
has replied that he has “received the communication of the council of state, ahd records
the most decided protest against the method and action of the government.”
Learned Norwegians declare that the present trouble will result in a republic for*
Norway. There is but little probability that anything can induce the Swedish andNorweg
ian people to go to war over the matter, as their relations are too cordial. The friction
with the king has grown out of the long-pending dispute as to the consular service, which is
occupied almost entirely by Swedish subjects, the Norwegins being ignored, notwithstand
ing they ear ry on great foreign commerce, while the Swedish people have a very small
l
foreign trade.
Reasons for Great Victory of Togo.
Tokio. June 3. — The cardinal causes of Bojestven sky’s defeat
in the view ot’ Japanese naval experts, are as follows:
1. An imperfect reconnoissance and incomplete, faulty and
misleading intelligence. -
2. An imperfect battle formation, which indicated that Rojest
vensky did not expert to meet Togo off Tsushima.
3. The weather, the direction of the wind and the sunlight
were unfavor able to the Russians, Togo having the sun behind him
and firing with the wind, while the Russians had the sunlight in
their eyes and fired against the wind.
4. The Russians wasted their ammunition and eventually ran
short. It is believed that the surrender of Nebogatoff was necess
ary because his ammunition had been expended.
5. The marked inferiority of the Russian gunnery.
A Russian view of the reasons for Togo’s victory is voiced by
the captain of the Uemitri Donskoi, as follows:
lam sure no navy in the world is like the Japanese. Non-com
missioned officers and men are cool and so brave as to be almost
demons and not human beings. Their officersare equally calm and
great strategists. Their whole combination on the sea is immovable
and as impassive as a rock. We made a foolish mistake in trying
to force the Tsushima straits. Now I weep with tears of regret.
To Proclaim Ihe Fame Of Togo.
Tokio, June 2. —In response to thousands of suggestions
and inquiries received, the navy department has decided to
erect an enormous lighthouse on Okiqo island as a monu
ment to commemorate Admiral Togo’s great naval victory
over the Russian fleet in the battle of the sea of Japan.
It is planned to have the light show for a distance of
eighty miles, practically covering the entire scene of the
battle. This plan has been adopted over all others because
the monument will be near the scene of battle and stand
constantly in the sight and memory of the officers and men
of the Japanese navy.
If there should be a future war it will prevent disaster
similar to those which overtook the transports Hitachi and
Sado. The lighthouse will be erected by popular subcrip
tion, which it is believed will be opened through Japan to
morrow.

IN ITS HISTORY.
Fond dll Lac, Wis., June T. —Fond du
Lac is battling with the worst flood in
its history and with threatening clouds
overhead and more rain the whole city

beyond. Nineteen thoroughfares are
covered with water. The downtown

Crops in rural districts and gardens
are practically ruined.
The damage so far is estimated to
reach aboui SIOO,OOO in the city and

of the streets of the West Side is from
seven to ten feet high.
The storm since Sunday has been
general in the state and much damage
has been wrought to railroad prop
