STOCKHOLM, 8wden. Bept. lfc-If
jwcda and Bnrland come to a aifao
lory undarstandln regarding Swedish

or alteration of Its demands to be treated

of the eeaa, acoordlna; to the statement
made today to the Associated ITpss by
Drlo da Troll, president of the Royal
Trade comrolaslon. former minister of
forelcn affaire, and at present member
at the English-Swedish commission en
fared In attemptbif to eettle the trade
tl sputa,
Sweden cannot and will not surrender
to English demand restricting Ita oom
anareo," aald Da TroUa, "In order to help
England la Its Industrial war against
Germany. If It did this, not only would
Bwaden suffer Industrially Itself, but It
would become virtually an ally of Eng
land. The last consideration la Che most
Important, since Sweden would no longer

"XT tt permits the transit of supplies
txtneen England and Russia and loins
Bn any attempt to prevent the transit of
snnnltM to Oarmanv. It la becoming an
Important baa of supplies for the allies I
and la at the same time really entering
Into the war against Germany. Sweden's
mod net desire Is to be allowed to carry
eo its normal Industry and to observe a
trtot neutrality which means helping
neither side In a military or Industrial
way, to the exclusion of the other. In 1
this point of view It differs with the
TTnlted States which la supplying Eng
land alone. Sweden does not consider this
a real neutrality. Its position, from
Vhich It will not recede Is an absolutely
neutral attitude toward all combatant.
"It la logical therefor that w should
bold up supplies dentlned for Russia
wr.1V England' toppg of our import
f raw material Interfere with our in
dustry and trad with Germany. W are
sorry that Russia la foeed to wait for
it supplies which hare accumulated here,
tot while our chip are being held la'
9BngUn prise court, w think the no
tion Justifiable.
A Coaasaerrtal Qarstloa.
"If it wer only ' a commercial ques
tion, Sweden might find it possible to
yield to England' demands, but slnoe It
Is primarily a political question of not
allying ourselves with either side, we
cannot yield. We are, however, not ;
b.opeles regarding the solution of our
die put with England. Sweden Is not
unconscious of the English viewpoint or
Che necessity which compel it to adopt
it present attitude regarding the ship
ping of material to Germany. It wishes
t restrict our Import a muoh a possi
ble. Both our member and the English
' member of , the oommlsslon have re
caslly made ' proposals which may lead
to a satisfactory adjustment of the ques
tion be restricting our Import.
"There la no quarrel about the export
is Germany of our own horn manufac
ture or of the articles which ar not
placed on the Swedish prohibitory list
although England may think that the
export ta exceaatv. - But I may say
without violating th secrecy of the ne
gotiation which ar atlll under way that
th chief obstacle la th Question of th
exceptions which w ar bound to mak
to our prohibitory export list In th way
cf special license a granted to Germany.
In order to get supplies which ar abeo
luteljr nosry to us, we must glv in
soaang to Germany aotn of th art!
1m on our forbidden list. It trouble
the English because w cannot produce
sjtatiaUca showing th exaot amount and
character of food shipped to Germany
under these ooodltion. Th publication
of such figure) would leadjko obvious
difficult!.
VnaTsU t Owt Oral.
"Moreover, w cannot guarantee, a
.England would Ilk to have ua do, that
supplies will not under any condition
' be sent Into Germany. Mot only would
w suffer from not being abl to get
what w need from Oermany, but we
would then be partisan to England.
. "A to th assertion that our Import
hare Increased beyond our own capacity
, for consumption sine th beginning of
th war, thl Is not generally tru. Our
poorest harreet and our inability to
get grain from Russia and other sup
plies from Germany has, of odur, In
creased our export from other ooun
trie. But even if our exports have in
creased we do not recognise England'
right to Interfere with out commerce.
. "Most of Sweden' export to Germany
are not article directly connected with
military affairs. Eftigland cannot ask us
t cut down our meat export to Ger
many, for thl I one of our chief la-
- dualrlea, Th kind copper and th
1 thin hide which Sweden send to Ger
many ar not available for military pur
poses. Nor can there be any criticism
of our timber and wood pulp exports
' to Germany. All these are the products
of bom Industry, and most of the things
which we send to Germany are for the
'ctvfilan rather than th soldier."
When the attention of Mr. Trolle was
aaQed to th fact that no supplies
. destined for Germany were arriving in
Swedea and that, tbsrefore, the question
of allowing equal privilege of transit
for aupplie for Russia and thoee for
Germany could hardly arise, he replied
that that did not alter the case, sine
if It ware not for Kugland's interference
with It comma roe supplies would find
' a natural transit through Sweden Into
Oermanv.

Thl is a story that has Just been con
cluded a a serial In the Century Maga
alne, and la accompanied by th ex
planation that it is written anonymously
by on of our living women novelists,
who found herself making a personal
retrospect when ah was laid up for a
sle;e of Illness In a hospital, with th
resultant production in tho nature of an
autobiography. The story Is full of ac
tion, sustaining Interest In every chapter
to th very end, and narrates th ex
perience of a girl thrown on her own re
source and compelled to make her liv
ing In th face of th variegated temp
tations of city life. Th main background
Is In Chicairo, with vivid descriptions of
everai well known Chicago Institutions,
Including the stockyards district and the
Toung Woman' Christian association.
There are several villains, and no heroin
but "Me." the main character, who
elude all pitfall successfully. Its chief
defect seem to b lack of a landing
place.
TUB RAINBOW TRAII By Zan
Gray. Jl.JS. Harper a Brothe.
The wild, grim land, awesome and beau
tiful, stretohlng back from th upper
part of th Grand Canyon of th Colo
rado, Mr. Grey knows thoroughly, and
In It he ha staged the action of several
of his stories. But In this tale It I more
than background. It Is as mtvh a part
of the action, of the evolving story, a
ar the character themselves. Th hero
Is a man from th central west, a former
minister whose falling theology had cast
him from the church. He had heard the
story of the loet valley and had set him
self th task of finding It and rescuing
It prisoners, and, being young, he
thought much, of the little girl who was
with them and of the young, strong and
Innocent womanhood Into which sh had
surely grown. The story carries him
through many adventures, stranKe friend
ships and unexpected occupations. He
finds the girl In a Village of women,
hidden in a secret, lovely valley, the
sealed wive of Mormon who some
time come riding down th mountain
trail by night In a long line. Traxedy
come to the beautiful vale, an outlaw
dog th hero' steps, a somber, high
ouled Navajo la faithful as his shadow,
there ar weird happenings, wild ven
ture over mountain trails, and, finally,
reckless rush In a flat-bottomed boat
down the red, rapids-tossed water of
the Colorado through th Grand Canyon.

Th story Is concerned with a gifted
urgeon who, having attained fame while
still in his twenties, cast his profession
aald because he had blundered and hi
blunder had cost a life, and went to ttr
In a shabby street In a mld-westem city
and earned his living as a bookkeeper In
a ga office. A charming and eager girl,
studying to be n nurse and a young sur
geon on the way to be famous, also Uv
In th street These three provide th
chief part of the action, although there
are many other characters, some of them
more convincingly drawn than either of
these. In this book Mrs. Rlnehart em
phasises her keen and sympathetic sppre
rlation of the Joys and troubles of young
l')ve. The plot la but little complicated,
but the author graphically portrays the
Inner self of her characters, and makes
evident and plausible their motives.
