Witto's interviews with the Chancellor and Foreign Secretary. It was learned, however, that Rus sia's policy at present tends to entire noninterference in Franco-German re lations. Franco naturally would de sire Russia's support against German diplomacy, but Russia's view seems to be that the Morocco question does not" concern her, and that France and Ger many must settle their difficulties themselves.

But Norway will not make a sec ond offer, nor can we Indefinitely await an answer from King Oscar. It we do not receive a response very soon, we ' shall consider ourselves relieved and turn else where. Prince Charles of Denmark would then bo the most available through lan guage and nationality. "Prince Charles of Sweden would have iccelved an enthusias tic welcome had he accepted the throne. He would still bo welcome, but the people still are no longer enthusiastic," Asked what form of government Nor way would adopt if the monarchy Is aban doned, M. Loevland remarked: "We shall have to choose Between three kinds of republics: First, a monarchical republic, like France, where the President is virtually King, with a fixed term; sec ond, an absolute republic, like that of the United States, of which the President is autocratic in power, and third, a demo cratic republic like Switzerland. This last satisfies us best, and wc shall undoubtedly adopt it" Mr. Loevland read and approved the interview. Willamette Team Goes South. SALEM. Or., Sept 27. (Special.)
