LONDON, September 13
Sweden's demand for the dismantling of tho new Norwegian frontier fortresses, and also the ancient Frediksten Konigsvinger-forts, has led to increased tension.
English newspapers urge Lord Lansdowne to make friendly representations to prevent a; conflict,' and avert other Powers' ultimate interference.
. The Storthing objects to the demolition of the forts without guarantees, and asks that a treaty of arbitration be made previous to the demolition, and also the maintenance of the ancient forts.
Sweden favours making a treaty after the demolition.
