England.

BERLIN, Jan. 4.-The invasion Of the
Transvaal by DR.. Jameson and his
forces of the British South Africa com
pany has brought up all the latent feel
Ing of hostility to England and has
evoked an outburst similar to that pro
duced by President Cleveland's mess
age in America. The general belief
that the duplicity Of British statesmen
is deliberate, and in pursuance of their
policy of keeping Europe divided into
two camps, in order to facilitate Eng
lish aggI essions and encroachments in
Africa and elsewhere, has received sup
posed confirmation in the news of DR.
Jameson's venture. In spite of the
disavowal of the British secretary of
state for the colonies of any knowledge
of the step taken by DR.. Jameson, little
doubt is felt here that 1t was prompted
in high quarters, and the weighty
terms Of the. emperor's message are in
terpreted as indicating the same mis-
trust of the English protestations
which is felt in government circles
Everybody understands that the en-
peror's message to President Kruger
was not due to mere impulse, but was
decided upon and drafted after a grave
council of ministers, and it must there
fore be regarded as an open pronounce
ment of a change in German policy to-
wards Great Britain. The immediate
news of the invasion Of the Transvaal
was received on Tuesday evening, and
the emperor summoned the minister for
foreign affairs, Baron Marschal Won
Bieberstein, and DR.. Kayser. director
Of the colonial office, to Potsdam, and
spoke to them in strong terms Of the
breach of international law, Later an
official note was sent to the British
government, asking courtly the mean
ing Of DR. Jameson's raid, and what
steps would be taken to neutralize 1t.
Moreover, 1t is asserted on good au-
thority that the intention to land Ger
