THE KAISER'S FOLLY
DRIFT TO MILITARIST PARTY.
PARIS, 27th December. Letters written by Prince Albert of Monaco to the ex-Kaiser reveal the fact that Wi'helm 11., during years of 'close intimacy with the Prince, drifted closer and closer to the military party's ideas of German domination. Seventeen years of conversation with the Prince failed to enlighten the Kaiser as to the dangerous course he was pursuing. Wilhelm finally succumbed to the foul plot to overthrow the beauties of civilisation. The Princo declares that the Kaiser might have been the greatest figure in the history of all times, but he chose instead to maintain the brutal customs of military monarchy until Germany, which might peacefully have won world-power, was dragged down in the Kaiser's false ideas and blind folly. Intimate letters from the Prince to Wilhelm are also published.
