LEADERS DISCUSS STATUS OF AFFAIRS WHILE DEADLOCK SEEMS PROB- ABLE PEACEFUL OUTCOME IS PREDICTED. London, Sept. 15.—Dr. Nansen, the Arctic explorer, who recently has been active in Norwegian politics, gnd Captain Wallenberg, a member of the Swedish riksdag, who are both in London, declared during the day that their respective countries desired nothing but a peaceful outcome of the present crisis and appeared to be hopeful of a satisfactory outcome of the negotiations. Both said that the question of the demolition of the forts would be the only possible cause of a rupture. Dr. Nansen said Norway was will- ing to give up the new forts on the trontier, but strenuously opposed the demand' that the new porticns of the old fortresses of Fredrick Kongsvinger should be leaving nothing but hist This question, the conference, ronstituting a ¢ way would than give up the fortr er is far from the frent and is important for the defe: of the capital. Nor- way dces noco Swe frontier and on of w‘lhmg to cdricksteen Yyield the outer line of forts. Dr. Nansen added that it was quite untrue that Norway had been prepar- ing for war. At the present moment she had more than 50,000 men under arms and only a few ships ready. Such an absurd folly as war seemed impossible. Captain Wallenberg said: ‘“The one desire of Sweden is for a peaceful settlement. There is no reasomn for war. The: question of the demolition of the forts is the only one which could possibly occasion a rupture. But we insist on the demolition of the forts close to the frontier. I have every reason to believe that Sweden will offer no objection to an arbitra- tion treaty as socn as Norway is an independent state, I firmly believe that a peaceful settlement will be ar- rived at.” No Joint Session Held. Karlstad, Sweden, Sept. 15.—The delegates of Norway and Sweden ap- pointed to discuss the dissolution of the union of the iwo countries spentl the morning in private conferences.

Tiflis, Caucasia, Sept. 15.—The body of General Prince Amilakhoveri, for- merly goyernor of Baku, was brought into this city by troops and was bur- ied without disorder occurring.

Speaking of the condition of Baron Komura Dr. Pritchard, one of the physicians called {o attend him, said: “Baron Komura’s illness is un- doubtedly due to his trip to Boston. ‘While there he spent an evening with a friend in a suburb.

He went immediately to his train and did not change his wet clothes until an hour afterward. “The following day, the Tth, he ar- rived in this city and suffered from chills. I was called and then Dr. Brewer was summoned in consulta- tion. On Sunday morning the baron's fever had diminished, but on Monday it was higher. At first it was thought necessary to perform an operation, as it was feared that an abscess was forming. Now it is not necessary. ' “The baron’s condition is at present very favorable.
