The famous memorandum of Prince lichnowsky, who was German ambas
 sador to the court of St. James in 1914. at the time of the outbreak Of the world war, was made public in this country some time ago, and ere
 ated a profound sensation. The mem
 orandum, written for private circula
 ton among the friends and relatives of the dpIomatist. found its way into the columns of Swedish newspaper, and extracts were published in So- ciaIist newspapers in Germany. The document fixes beyond the shadow of doubt the responsibility of Germany for the deliberate provocation Of the war, and substantiates in every detail the contentious of the British official statement as to the negotiations which led to the opening of hostili- ties by Austria and Germany. The following resume of the document has been prepared for publication by the federal committee on publication. is IS of interest to note that Prince lich. nowsky, since the publication of the startling document, has been a virtual prisoner at his country estate, and has been charged with high treason.

 Non Jagow's reply to the Prince only served to make matter worse. His ad- mission that England had not brought on the war enraged the pan-German press It was seized upon trium- phantly by the Socialists. The So cialist organ, Norwaerts, says:
