CHRISTIANIA,Oct 10.—After twodays spent In excited dlscußslon, thestorthing at 1:10 o'clock this morningproceeded to a division on the proposalof the Republican minority to submitthe Karlstad agreement concerning thedissolution of the union between Nor-way and Sweden to a referendum.

The prcpoaal was rejected by a voteof 109 to 8.

The agreement was then accepted t>ia vote of 101 to 16.

This is a great victory for the gov-ernment.In the course of the debate Premier

Michelsen made an Interesting speechon the question of the selection of aking. He said that the offer of thsthrone to a member of the house ofBernadotte was made as an expres-sion of good will. It had apparently,however, been otherwise interpreted inSweden as, according to King Oscar*observation to foreign newspapermen,his majesty would regard his approvalof such a selection as a personal sac-rifice. In conclusion the premier saidthat the question now appeared to be

outside actual politics.Premier Michelsen's statement is re-

garded as a withdrawal of Norway'soffer of the throne to a member of th«Bernadotte family.

TRIAL OF COMMANDERYOUNG IS RESUMED

LONDON. Oct. 10,—John HennlkerHeaton, conservative member of parlia-ment for Canterbury, known as thefather of the penny postage establishedin 18D9, published this morning a strongplea for a universal two cent postage.He points out that no expensive ma-chinery would be involved In makingthe change, saying:

"An International half penny (onecent) postage on printed matter alreadyexists. If two ounces of printed mat-ter can be sent anywhere for a halfpenny, why should not a half ounce ofwritten matter be sent for one penny?The world's postofflces are working at& profit. InGreat Britain nearly £5,-01:0,000 ($25,000,000), and in France andGermany nearly £3,000,000 (nearly $15,-000,000) of excessive postage surplus Isbad finance because It taxes initialcommercial corporations."

Mr. Heaton says It costs 5 cents tosend a letter 21 miles to France andonly 2 cents to send one 11,000 miles tothe Fiji islands, a "glaring anomolythat cannot be defended." He says thathe spent several days In June withJohn Wanamaker, former UnitedStates postmaster general, and adds:

"Mr. Wanamaker visited WhitelawReid and Iknow that the result oftheir deliberations will give new inter-est to the movement and show an ex-ample of public spirit deserving thehighest pnise."

BERKELEY, Oct. 9.—A fierce flreswept over the Berkeley hills behindthe University of California today, andhad it not been for the heroic workof 1000 students from the university andthe efforts of the Berkeley flre depart-ment, assisted by hundreds of citizens,Berkeley property to the extent ofthousands of dollars would have beendestroyed.

The flames were first discovered InStrawberry canyon at 11 o'clock.Fanned by a gale of north wind, whichblew all day, the great sheet of flameswept the hillside and bore downtoward the university buildings. See-ing the danger, President Wheeler dis-missed the students. The cadets wereassembled on the campus for drill andPresident Wheeler called upon them tofight the flames.

President Wheeler himself led thestudents, and, hatless and coatless,they fought the flames with wet sacksuntil late this afternoon, not evenstopping for dinner. Many studentshad narrow escapes from the flames.Prentls Grey, president of the studentbody; Ray Gabbert, editor of the Blueand Gold, and Roy Elliott, a footballplayer, at the head of one division,were cat off by a circle of flre andcompelled to roll themselves In wetsacks to save their lives.

Crow's personal appearance is any-thing but that of a criminal. He wassmoothly shaven, wore a stylish suitof clothes, with patent leather shoes,and other articles to match. Exceptfor his white hair, he does not lookto be 36 years of age, which he saysla his correct age.

"Ibelieve Mr. Cudahy has made thestatement that L did so. Ido notthink he would tell a He for $21,000,"he replied.

"Is It true that you once offered toreturn $21,000 to Edward A. Cudahy ifhe would not prosecute you?" wa»asked.

Crowe was not inclined to talk ofhis past and refused absolutely tospeak of his alleged connection withthe kidnaping of Eddie Cudahy. Hedeclared that much had been pub-lushed of his alleged doings, confes-sions, and other matters which werewithout foundation. Among these hementioned a confession said to havebeen signed by him at Butte, impli-cating young Cudahy in a conspiracyIn connection with the kidnaping.

"When this case comes to trial," saidCrowe, "

the truth willgo to the world.God will take care of me; He takescare of everybody and makes no mis-takes. Ido not feel nearly so anxiousabout securing my liberty again as Ido to reform and get back to an hon-est life. Ionce did well inOmaha andif given a chance Ibelieve Ican doas well again."

A large crowd followed the patrolwagon to the station, where anothercrowd had gathered to witness thereturn of the prisoner, who was hur-ried into the captain's office, wherehe was registered. Opposite his namewas placed the charge of shooting withIntent to kill or wound.

A large cordon of police opened anaisle from the platform of the trainto a patrol wagon in the rear of thestation, and Crowe, between the twodetectives, with a patrolman walkingahead and another behind, wasmarched to the wagon amid the chcer3of some and the exclamations of oth-ers. The extraordinary precautiontaken by the police department forlanding Crowe safely behind the barsseemed hardly necessary, for he gavelittle heed to them and apparentlyhad no wish to make his escape.

so. He argued with her until he hadgotten outside the gate, and whenneighbors asked him what the troublewas he told them the same story andsaid my wife was crazy.

Within a short time Mrs. Goukerdiscovered that her bureau had beenransacked and the watch and money
