Berlin, Aug. 5.-There is consider
able criticism here of the statements
attributed to Rear Admiral Taylor,
warning the Americans to prepare
for war WIN Germany. 1t is declared
that if the statements were made by
a German admiral he would be re
Heved of his duties Immediately.
What Taylor Said.
New York, Aug. Sin a recent dis
patch from Washington, Rear Ad-
miral Taylor, chief of the bureau of
navigation. is credited with having
given expression to the ideas refcrr-
ed to in the foregoing message from
Berlin Admiral Taylor was de
scribed as thoroughly alive to the
steady set of a current which is car
rying the United States and Germany
along Conyerging lines in many parts
of the globe and bringing the two ma
tons into closer rivalry elsewhere.
To Admiral Taylor was given the
credit of warning the leaders of the
United states that navy and army
preparations must begin at once ana
be vigorously prosecuted for a grave
crisis in German-American relations
in the spring of 1907.
The time for which this crisis is
fixed is concident with the most eff
cent sea power Germany now contem-
plates, the time when the Panama ca
nal will be occupying much attention
in this country, when the Cuban re-
public may have about reached the
end of its tether, when Jamaica and
other West Indian islands will DC
PROSTATE in bankruptcy, when the
Netherlands, according to Admiral
Taylor's predictions, will have been
absorbed by Germany, leaving Cura
Gao and other Dutch islands of the
caribbean sea as the bones of conten.
ton to force a supreme test of the
Monroe doctrine.
Chicago, Aug. 5.-Rear Admiral
Taylor denies that he believes the
United States and Germany may &C
to war in 1907. He says he has advo
Gated strengthening the coast de
lenses, but the story that he predict
ed war with any nation is ridiculous
