STOCKHOLM, Apr. 23 (Domel)- Maintaining its strict neutrality, the Swedish Government to-day pro- hibited the passage through Sweden their fatherland after participating! with the Finnish Volunteer Corps.--
The Swedish Government also pro- viously refused Germany's demand that her expeditionary forces should! be permitted to pass through Sweden on their way to Norway.
Sweden Black-Outs Coastal Points
STOCKHOLM, April 23 (Domei). In a desire to take every possible precautiin to prevent the war from spreading to Swedish territory, the Government to-day ordered black- outs at three strategic points along the coast.
