PEACE TALK.

GERMANY’S MOVE

KUHLM ANN'S FICTIONSLONDON, September 16,

All the leading London nbwspapera point out that Kulilmann was the originator of the story of Britain’s alleged peace overtures, wishing to prepare the German public for the concessions embodied in the Aust-ro-German reply to tilig Pope’s Note.

Another of Kulilmann’s objects was to insinuate that Britain was envisaging a peace which would serve her ends, but would ignore tho interests of her Allies. With equal cunning, ho suggests for the benefit of the German public tho prospect of famine, besides war weariness, as t'ho underlying motives of the latest move lyingly attributed to Britain.
