German Emperor to modify to certain degree
this excessive vigilance upon the frontier. The
reception given to his mother however. by few
Partisan fanatics, who represent in no way the
French Government or the French people, has
given the occasion to draw back from his amiabe
position of would-be friend to the cold and neutral
one OF man upon his guard against possible
insult from an implacable enemy. When the
spring travel begins again there may be some
act upon the frontier upon the part OF some
crazy BOuangist, some representative OF the
Patriotic League, that will precipitate trouble
There are few people in the world who realize
how close France and Germany were to war at
the time of the Schnaeble affair, some three years
ago. Then actual preparations were made one
night to march into France. A German officer
who was in the contingent at Metz told me after
ward that during one of the nights when that
question was pending $4,000 German cavalry
men, armed and equipped ready for the march,
stood at their horses heads all night awaiting
possible orders from Berlin. There would nave
been no formal declaration of war, no proclamation
to a waiting public. The war; if it had occurred,
would have begun with direct act OF aggression.
II Berlin had given the word France would nave
walked up the next morning with the GERMAN
cavalry, 10000 strong, thirty miles across her
frontier. with the great host of invaders behlnd.
This is the way that the next European war
will come. At least that is the opinion OF those
who have studied the matter the ciosesc lhe
next war will come without warning. and may
be the result of cause small as not al hrst
