PRICE: HAAKON VII CROWNED uchard o-ennivens KING OF ALL NORWAY New Ruler Hailed With Great Burst of Patriotism. »' “ALL FOR NORWAY,” THE NATIONAL MOTTO. Queen Maud Shares in Love of Populace—Both Shake Hands with Everyone in Reach. Trondhjem, Norway. June 22.—In thla, the ancient viking capital, thou- Mnda of Norwegians, representing the flower of the re.bom nation, today hailed with a great burst of patriotism their new ruler, the viking's successor, King Haakon VII, crowned before their eyes In the simple but deeply Impress ive ceremonial devised <00 years ago by the ancient Norse sovereigns. Besides the new crowned king, with his bride, crowned In her turn, Queen Maud. Affection mingled with the pa- trlotlcisentlment that stirred the thou sands for the coronation, but underly ing the general feeling there was clear ly shown a spirit, almost fierce, of na tionalism. "All For Norway." "All for Norway," the national motto has it, that has never been equaled since the days of Norway's indepeml rnee and power. The coronation ceremony took place In Trondhjem cathedral, not yet com pleted, but so covered with decoration for the occasion that Its defects were not noticeable. The king and queen sat In ancient chairs, under canopies of red and gold, t apped by crowns embroidered with the Initials of Haakon and his wife, the v.hote placed betweeri the two tran sits under the dome of the structure. The royal procession from the palace to the cathedral was truly a triumphal procession. The populace, augmented ninny fold by the visitors, never seemed to end their shoutings. In the cathe dral It was the same, although mors dignified. A battery of artillery boomed out Its royal salvos when the coronation was completed. The qpronatlon music fol lowed, consisting ,'of a specially com posed cantata. In .four parts, the work of Conductor Halverson, of the natlonnl theater of Christiana, und sung with a ■ chorus’ of 22b voices. Not a Single Soldier. Through streets lined with crowds of peasants In national coatume, tourists and civilians by tbe thousand, but not a single soldier, King Haakon and Queen Maud drove from the stlfta- gaard to Ihe old cathedral. The royal parly was accompanied by the mem bers of the cabinet, representative of all the royal families of Europe and the members of tt)e corps diplomatique. They started .a little after 11 o'clock and so slow w^ts their progress through the crowded street that although the distance Is less than a’mile. It took them nearly an hour. Had an anar chist wanted to, ha could ealsly have killed the king, for no attempt waa made to keep the crowds back, and both the king and queen ahook hands with every one within reach. Before the ceremonies attending the coronation King Haakon 1 received the American apeclnl embassy to corona tion. William Jennings Bryan accom panied Charles H. Graves, American minister to Sweden, who heads the embassy. Attended by Norwegian of- flclats, the two Americans, with Major William W. Gibson, military attache at 8t. Petersburg, and Lieutenant • ommander John H. Gibbons, naval attache at London, drove to the palace. The king also received the Dutch, French, Italian and Auatrian special envoya. Since the days of Harold Haarfaager, Haakon the Good and Eric Bloodax, all Norwegian kings, have been crowned «t Tronhjem. Olaf Tryggeveison, the great king,' made It practically * I capital of Scandinavia. FOR MURDER OF WOMAN Chicago Man Choked Prominent Social Leader to Death—Passed Last Night in Fitful Sleep.
