NORWAY AND SWEDEN.
Received September 13, 9.45 p.m. London, September 13. Sweden's demand for the dismantling of the new Norwegian frontier and fortresses, also the ancient Frediksten Konigsvinger forts has led to increased tension. The English newspapers urge Lord Lansdowne to make friendly representations to prevent a conflict, and avert other Powers from an ultimate interference. The Storthing objects to the'demolition without guarantees, and asks for a treaty of arbitration to be made previous to the demolition, also the maintenance of ancient forts. Sweden favors making a treaty after the demolition. JAPANESE BATTLESHIP STROYED.
