BALTIC ENTRANCE
ALMOST CLOSED BY GERMAN MINES SERIOUS EFFECT ON SWEDISH SHIPPING. THROWN BACK ON WEST COAST. By Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright. (Received This Day, 11.40 a.m.) STOCKHOLM, November G.
The extension of the German minefield off Falsterbo has virtually closed the entrance to the Baltic, and is perturbing Swedish shipowners, because the unmined waters are only deep enough for lightly-laden vessels. For this reason shipments must be made from the west coast, involving railway charges. PROTEST BY SWEDEN (Received This Day, 1.15 p.m.) STOCKHOLM, November G. Sweden has protested to Germany against the extension of the Falsterbo minefield.
