the verification of prophecy made
by Bismarck just before his death in

the murders; but the grand ole man
OF Germany saw what was coming
as many occupying similar positions
saw. AS, perhaps, you lads see some
thing ahead.

was then, in July, 1908, revolution at
Constantinople which brought the
downfall of the Kaiser's young hopeful,
Abdul Hamid. The Young Turks took
possession of power. The same year
came Bulgaria's declaration of inde-

in defiance of provisions in the treaty
of Berlin, Baron Aerenthal of Austria
annexed the Provinces of Bosnia and

After looking over the provincial

"On the way to the hospital the

plode.
Immediately, from the mob sur

fellow named Gavnio Prinzip ap-

That peaceful Sunday. turned into
turmoil. had as its aftermath the
greatest upheaval the world ever
knew.
News of the tragedy of Serajevo
reached NJ Poincaire of France as he
was in the presidential grandstand at
Longchamps. With him was M. La
Lavary. Rumanian Minister, exceed
ingly familiar with Balkan state af-
fairs. He observed, This unhappy
event may have very serious conse-
quences.

1T changed the whole map of Eu-

1T shrank the Atlantic Ocean.

THE Serajevo murders were alleged
to have been plotted by band
Of Serbian agitators. The Serbian
government was said to be behind the
intrigue, but that was never proved.
Whatever the cause, the shot fired
by that young boy, Prinzip, name
long forgotten by the majority of men,
brought to head the long-pent-up
bad blood existing between Austria
Hungary and Serbia on the one hand
and the conflicting Balkan policies
pursued by Austria and Russia on the
other. 1t all went back to the Balkan

Theodore Roosevelt, at that time
President of the United States, sent
the American Fleet around the world.
There was talk that this move would
take the Kaiser down OF his high
horse. Also that it showed clearly
gentlemen's agreement between
England. America and France. Some
even hinted at secret treaty. An
American college professor, Roland
Greene Usher of ST. Louis University,
was dragged into the controversy, but,
of course, all this was mythical. There
could be no secret treaty signed by
this Government, as any student of
constitutional government might point
out. However, all this innuendo
showed which way the wind blew
though precious few felt the breeze.
THERE was never any doubt that
Kaiser Wilhelm and his prime
minister, Prince Won Bulow. wanted to
secure for Germany a leading posi-
tion in European affairs. That was
to be expected-but there were those
who were afraid of this very thing,
who stood in the way of Germanys
absolute dominance of European af-
fairs. And why not?
. About this time Germany was
forging to the front, not only po-
litically, but industrially. The Ger
mans had their eyes on one country
as standing between them and the
sun-England. They feared, the Ger
mans, that King Edward VII had set
his mind on the complete isolation
of Germany. Statesmen in Germany
firmly believed this. All the Will
liamstrasse was convinced.

penditure for naval expansion, and
consequent increased taxation on the
