SETTING BALKAN STATES >
AGAINST EACH OTHER
'(Received Aug. 29, 3.30 p.m) ... LONDON, Aug. .28. M. Takejonescu, Roumanian Prime Minister, in a telegram to the Morning Post, said that Heir KiderlinWaeehter in November of 1911 said that he desired an agreement with Britain for the limitation of naval armaments. Yon Tirpitz opposed it, and as he had the Kaiser's support the plan was dropped. Count Berchto'ld, in September of 1912, admitted that Austria's naval plans were directed against England, who would be outstripped in the naval race by a shortage of 'bluejackets. M. Takejonescu adds that he knows definitely that Russia made every effort to prevent the Serbo-Bulgarian rupturo in ISI3, which was due to Austrian intrigues. M. Fursten'burg, the Austrian Minister at Bucharest, rubbed his 'hands and said to M. Takejonescu after the rupture: "We have done a good stroke of business.'"'
