WORLD CONQUESTS PLANNED

LONDON, January- 10.
In a further letter written December 1907, the Kaiser informs "Nicky" that by his visit to England he (the Kaiser) thinks he has removed many causes of misunderstanding and distrust, so that pressure on the' safety valve has been relieved. He adds:—"As a piece of news quite private and confidential for you personally, I found the British very nervous about the Japanese, whom thej begin to fear and mistrust. The sailing of the American Pacific Fleet angered London highly. They tried everything in their power to hinder it. London is afraid of an encounter between Japan and America, because they must take sides with one of them. It will be a question of race, not politics, only yellow versus white. The dropping of Japan would immediately entail the loss of India, which the Japanese are quietly undermining and revolutionising. The Japanese have foreseen, this development and are preparing for it. Japan will fight and attack India, and leave the Phillipines alone. The British naval and army officers spoke openly to me and my officers oi: their disgust at the yellow alliance with Japan, whom they hate."
The Kaiser recounts that he received word that ten thousand Japanese reservists with hidden arms were working on the plantations in Southern Mexico and that they indulged in secret drill, and were intended for use as a corps to seize the Panama Canal and cut off American communications. The Kaiser adds: "This is my secret information for you, so that you can have time to arrange your plans. It is sure and good information. Developments may be slow. It is important to observe who the Japanese, prepare themselves for. They are going in for the whole of Asia, carefully preparing their blows, and against the white races in general. Remember my picture, is coming true. If France sides with England in this affair, Sigon and Annam are gone."
