PURE FICTION
Ac Reports of German.British POEtu-
guese Treaty.

BERLIN. Dec. 2s.-RegardIng the
statement by the LokaI An=eIEer that a
secret Anglo German Portuguese
treaty exists for the division of the
Portuguese colonies in South Africa,
the correspondent OF the Associated
Press is able to assert on the highest
authority that the story is pure fic-
ton and is in all its claims without
foundation in fact. The high official
who authorizes this denial made tho
following declaration:
"There is no objection to stating that
the understanding had between Great
Britain, Germany and Portugal refers
only to Africa and leaves Asia wholly
out of the account. 1t Is quite certain
however, that Germany under no con-
alteration, would conclude such bar
gain with Portugal as the Lokal An
zeIrsr sets forth. ANY one with the
sllghteSt political sense ought to sec
that these tiny conelaves in the midst
Of British INDIA are the last colonial
nossesslons Germany would dream Of"
