TREPOFF TAL.KS OF HIS TASK.
Klngr'M Veto of Separate Consular
3leasure Leads to Seeeaaion.
The dissolution. of the union between
Sweden and Norway has been pending
for some time and had its growth, in
the desire for the establishment of sep
arate consular systems for the two
countries. King Oscar recently vetoed
at Stockholm measures presented to him
by the Council of' State providing foi
separate consular representation, and
the Norwegians maintained that their
King, by so doing, and partly by his ab
sence from Norway, had suspended hl»
rights and duties as King of Norway.
One of the causes for the desire in Swe
den and Norway for separate consular
systems was the fact that Sweden is
protectionist and Norway is for free
trade, and Norway's more extensive sea
trade and other divergencies of com
mercial interests had much to do with
the agitation. ,
By the treaty of Kiel on January 14,
1814, Norway was ceded to the King of
Sweden by the King of Denmark, but
the Norwegian people did not recognize
this cession and declared themselves
independent. A constituent assembly
met at Eldsvold and, on May 17, 1814,
having adopted a constitution, elected
the Danish Prince, Christian Frederick,
to be King of Norway. Swedish troops,
however, entered Norway, and, the for
eign powers refusing to recognize the
new King, there was concluded on Aug
ust 14 the convention of Moss, by which
the independence of Norway, -in union
with Sweden, was proclaimed. \u25a0' An ex
traordinary Storthing was yien con
voked and adopted modifications in the
constitution made - necessary ' by the
union with Sweden, and then elected
King Charles XIII King of" Norway on
November 4, 1814. ,- : \u0084 : : "t
In the following year a charter was
promulgated establishing new funda
mental laws on the terms that the union
of the two kingdoms should be indis
soluble and Irrevocable, without preju
dice, however, to the separatee govern
ment, constitution and code of laws r of
either Sweden or Norway. "
The law of succession was the same
In Sweden and' Norway. In the case of
an absolute vacancy of the throne the
Diets or Parliaments of the two king
doms assembled for the election of the
future sovereign, and if they were un
able to agree upon one person an equal
number of Swedish and Norwegian
Deputies were to meet at the city
of Karlstadt. in Sweden, for the ap
pointment of a King, this nomination
to be absolute.
The common affairs of Sweden and
Norway were decided upon in a Council
of State, composed of Swedes and Nor-
Wegians. The King had the right to
declare war and make peace only after
consulting the Council of State.
It Is said in London that the Chrls
tlania correspondent of the Times has
telegraphed to his paper that he be
lieved he had good authority for say
ing that" Sweden had indirectly assured
Norway that no forcible measures
would be employed to keep her within
the bonds of the present union.

served-wlth distinction at Austerlitz in
1805 and was elected Crown Prince of
Sweden In 1810, commanded the army
of the north against . Napoleon in 1813,
and, as Charles XIV, became King of
Sweden and Norway in 1818. He died
in 1844.
He ' was succeeded by his only son,
Oscar I, who married Josephine, daugh
ter of .Eugene Beauharnais, formerly
Viceroy of Italy. \u25a0 .
Oscar I died- in 1859 and was suc
ceeded by his eldest son, Charles XV.
The latter died In 1872 and the crown
descended to his brother, Oscar 11, who
to-day was declared by the Storthing
to have ceased to act as King of Nor
way.
The"' younger "eons' of the house~of
Bernadotte have borne the "title of
Prince of Sweden and Norway. Oscar
II has four sons — Gustave, the Crown
Prin"ce,*whd has acted a*s Regent; Prince'
Oscar, Prince Carl and Prince Eugene,
Gustave was born in 1858, Is married
and has three sons.
Prince Oscar was 'born in 1869, re
nounced* his succession to' the throne
and married in 1888 Ebba'.Muncke of
Fulkila. ' ..-' "
Prince Carl was born In 1861 and
married in -1897 Princess Ingebor,
daughter of Crown Prince Frederick of
Denmark.
Prince Eugene was born In 1865 and
Is not married. .
The eldesrson of the Swedish Crown
Prince, Prince Gustavua Adolphus, born
in 1882. is betrothed to the eldest

to be married In England on June 17.

belligerents together.
"Mr. Rooeewlt takes full advantage of the

' W. A: -. Foster, 7 Inspector at the pri
mary election* booth' where ''Wyman r
voted fraudulently, gave the same ver
sion as Countryman of the j conference.
: Under cross-examination by District
Attorney Bylngrton Foster became an
gry. "If I had known what was doins
in that booth there -wouldn't have been
a man caught," he snapped suddenly.
Immediately afterward. he .seemed to
regret this rash assertion and tried to
qualify it. "They didn't do anything
while I was In the booth." . ... ~ .'" "'
Byington endeavored, to trip Foster,
which drew some caustic remarks'from
Budd..- The ex-Governor accuseds the
District Attorney ; of attempting'to dis
tort the witness' answers. .- -.^ -;; : ..- .-•.-•
