BRITISH MINISTER.
INTERNMENT DENIED. (British Official Wireless.) RUGBY, April 10. In a broadcast from Zeesen to America this evening by the American commentators, Messrs Jordan and Russell Hill, it was stated, apparently as the result of the Wilhelmstrasse Press conference on Wednesday morning, that the British diplomatic representatives in Oslo had been captured by the Germans and would probably be interned. Authoritative quarters in London state that this story is without foundation, and it is pointed out that Sir Cecil Dormer (British Minister to Norway) and his staff moved to Hamar with the Norwegian Government ana had been in communication with the British Government till Wednesday afternoon, when they moved from Hamar in accordance with the second move made by the Norwegian Government.
