THE MORNING OKEGONIAN, TUESDAY, AUGUST 1, 1905. SE BALTIC TO THEIR ENEMIES Legation. King Christian briefly thanked the Emperor forhls visit, and the latter expressed his thanks for having beon two ears ago appointed a Danish Admiral. After the dinner Emperor William con- ersed at length with Premier Chrlsten- sen and the Foreign Minister. WhatKaiser and Czar Agreed Upon at Meeting at . Bjoerkoe. CZAR FEARED TOGO'S FLEET Dread of Blockade of His Capital Caused Him to Agree War Between Britain and Ger many Is Imminent. CHICAGO. Jwly 31. (Special.) The Daily News' St. Petersburg correspondent says: A Russian official who assisted at the Bjoerkoe meeting between the Czar and Kaiser said today to your correspon dent: The main object of Emperor William's visits to Finland and to Copenhagen Is to make the Sound and the Belt Straits a northern Dardanelles, to lock up the Bal tic Sea as the Black Sea is now locked up and do to England what the treaty of Paris did to Russia. Thus Germany would find it unnecessary to keep fleets for the defense of Kiel. Stettin. Danzig and Koonlgsberg. and the Czar's nightmare of Togo's appearance in the Baltic and making a landing on the Oesel and Dago Islands as basis for the blockade of St. Petersburg and Llbau, which led him to accept President Roosevelt's peace con ference propositions, would be removed. Agreement Made With Michael. "The Bjoerkoe interview only confirmed the agreement which was made during Grand Duke Michael's visit to Berlin at the time of the Crown Princo's wedding. Hence the presence of Michael at the conference on the Kaiser's yacht and also the -presence of Admiral Blrlleff, Rus sian Minister of Marine, and other naval officers. The question under discussion was essentially a naval question. Today's meeting with King Christian Is expected to consummate the deal. Why Nicholas Agreed. The Czar gladly acquiesced in the Kaiser's scheme to lock up the Baltic, because the catastrophe In the Tsushima Strait left the Baltic coasts of Russia at the mercy of the Japanese. Now the Sound and the Belt Straits are to be locked against the Czar's enomy and other outsiders, while the agreement with the Kaiser, thanks to the latter's Influence With Austria and Turkey, insures our western and southern frontiers. There fore, If the Japanese terms' of peace prove excessive, we can easily continue the war until the enemy is exhaustedL "Family ties and ldenticanHlical and material Interests guarantee the Kaiser's sincerity. Germany Is becoming our banker and this makes the understanding mutually profitable." K KIXG OSCAR'S GENERAL DENIAL Says Kaiser Proposed No Menacing Scheme Sweden Prefers Isolation. STOCKHOLM. Aug:. 1. (Special.) King Oscar has caused the informa tion to be circulated in Stockholm, Christlanla and Copenhagen, the capi tals of the three Scandinavian coun tries, that Emperor William made nc proposals to him at the Gefte meeting of the two monarchs which involved the least menace to the tranquility of Northern Europe. This general state ment is understood to mean that Ger many is not trying to draw the Scandi navian countries into any plan for closing the Baltic to the warships of the world, or any arrangement which woud hav the appearance of an en tangling alliance from a Scandinavian point of view. Should the Kaiser throw out any suggestion of this. character, it is be lieved that the Swedos would speedily indicate their preferenoo for an entire ly isolated position, so far as the groat powers are concerned. The only possi ble alliances dreamed of in the Swed ish capital are alliances which would lign the Scandinavian countries solld- against outside schemers of every nationality. It is believed in the highest quarters Sweden that the Kaiser's proceed ings In the Baltic are designed to con- ince his neighbors In these waters that German world-politics will unde- latlngly follow peaceful lines. WAR WITH BRITAIN IMMINENT German Paper Says German Navy Is Ready for Action. BERLIN, us. 1. (Special.) A very l"e oonslderableensatlon has been caused by the publication in the Tegel Zeltung of a statement that a war between Ger many and Great Britain Is imminent. The paper says: "According to the most reliable in formation furnished to the editor, war between this nation and England may not be averted. All German warships have been fully prepared for prompt action, having received secret instruc tions' that war is considered inevlt able." Tegel is a Berlin suburb, where are located the extensive works of Messrs Borslg, the well-known machine and gun manufacturers. This firm controls the newspapers and the assumption is tnat the "reliable information" emanat ed from that firm. CAN'T INFLUENCE DENMARK Kaiser's Closed Sea Scheme Not Welcomed There. COPENHAGEN. July 31. (Special.) All classes of the Danish nation view witn composure the, visit of Emperor William to King Christian at Berns- torff Castle. The Imperial guest will remaln-V few days and will meet the leaders- of Danish political llfe. The Emporor Is not expected to sug gest any startling scheme for German Danish action to close the Baltic against the -warships of non-Baltic powers, or to do anything else. If Wil 11am really made any proposal of the sort, he would be certain to meet with a polite rebuff. To put it mildly, the Danes feel quite as comfortable with the warships of hon-Baltic nations about their shores as thoy do with the fighting fleets of the two great Baltic powers In Danish waters. KAISER AND KING CONFER Earnest Conversation Distracts Their Attention From Cheering People COPENHAGEN, July 31. The meeting between Emperor William, of Germany and King Ghristian today was of a very informal character, but the Emperor' absorbed demeanor seemed to show that he attached great importance to the visit. The forts and warships fired royal sa lutes on the arrival of the Imperial yacht Hohenzollern. King Christian was attired in the unl form of a German Uhlan, and, in com pany with the Crown Prince and the other Minister Count Levelzau welcomed the Emperor, who wore the uniform of Princes, Premier Chrlstensen and Foreign Danish Admiral. There was no formal reception. The monarchs embraced and Emperor William conveyed to King Chris tian the greetings of Bperor Nicholas, of Russia. The party Immediately entered carriages and drove to Bernstorff Castle, amid much cheering by the spectators. Throughout the drive the Emperor was in earnest conversation with the King and took little notice of the demonstrations or the populace. The monarchs walked to gether in the palace garden and this evening there was a state dinner, at which 40 guests assembled, including the Danish Ministers and their respective suites and the members of the German FRENCH TOOK AGGRESSIVE German Version of Battle on French Congo Frontier. BERLIN. July 31. An official report from the Governor of Cameroon was re ceived today by the colonial division of the Foreign Office concerning the affair on the French Congo frontier. It says that Senegalese soldiers forcibly closed the German station at Mlszummlssum and plundered merchandise. Captain Scheu- nemann. who was at the time in the southern part of the district, was shot on his march to Mlszummlssum by French Senogalese troops, and the Germans re turned the fire, killing five and capturing four. The Governor of Cameroon, upon re ceiving the report of the affair, from the commander of the German troops. Colonel Mueller, sent troops to protect Bagun, and also communicated with the Gover nor-General of the French Congo in Brazzaville, which proposed that a joint commission should Immediately be sent to the spot to investigate the trouble and to arrange for the prevention of such inci dents. To this the German administration agreed. TUNC I MARCH Germany Is Suspected of Bad Faith by France. oeeeeee ee I! THE OLDS-WORTMAN-KING STORE ii GAINS GROUND IN MOROCCO Obtains .Commercial Concessions From Sultan, Bnckcd by Ger . man Ambassador, in Ad vance of Conference. PARIS, July 31. The activity of the Gorman commercial agents and officials with reference to the Moroccan situation is causing grave doubts on the part of the French people as to Germany's good faith. Despite the decision of the two governments not to intorfere with the status quo until the international con ference meets; the Germans are trying their utmost to extract commercial con cessions from the Sultan, hoping thereby to strengthen Germany's position at the conference. Inquiries in well-informed circles, how ever, sliow that It Is not believed that Germany is officially authorizing these efforts to secure advantage, though differ ences are likely to arise from this action, with consequent protraction of negotia tion. Count von Tattenbach Ashdd ap pears to be furthering the efforts of the German agents, which already have re sulted In securing a concession for the construction of wharves, while strong ef forts arc being made to obtain a cable concession and the acceptance of a Ger man loan. Such proceedings. It is believed here, do not tend to hasten a friendly understand ing, but the approaching Interview be tween Premier Rouvler and Prince von Radolin, the German Ambassador to France, is expected to result In the dis pelling of doubts and the completion of a satisfactory settlement.

IiEST JAPANESE FLEET ENTER German Paper Gives Reasons for Closing Baltic Sea. BERLIN, August 1. (Special.) The newspaper Relchsbote, in a loading ar ticle, declares that the Baltic Soa should be closed to all foreign war ships, because, shoutd the peace nego tiations fail, the Japanese can be ex pected to send a fleet to harass the Russian Baltic ports.
