LONDON, Nov. 7. Colonel Gaedke, the noted military and naval authority, in gn article in a_ forthcoming .issue of Nash's Magazine, states that war between the Germanic nations would be a crime against humanity, and must be prevented at all costs, and will be while there is a spark of conscience or common sense in statesmen and people. The time has come to earnestly consider the limitation of armaments. "PASSIONATE DESIRE FOR IMPROVED- RELATIONS." LONftGN, Nov. 7. The Daily Chroftscr& teent a special correspondent to interview Blfti»6lit politicians, bankers, and mfei'fehftiats at Berlin. He ftVuft'd that St Was correct that official relations are not cordial between Great Britain and Germany, and there is everywhere working a veiled, and sometimes unveiled, antagonism. A passionate desire for improvement in relations prevails in both official and unofficial circles. The correspondent states that the arrest of armaments is possible only as a part of a cordial and general political understanding. IvAISER AND KING. LONDON, Nov. 7. It is semi-officially stated at Berlin that it .is not improbable that after their accession to the throne King George and Queen Mary will visit Germany during the second half of 1911. It is also stated that an exceedingly cordial understanding exists between King George and the Kaiser, and both maintain a regular autograph correspondence. This and the confidence uniting them is a useful counterpoise to all attempts to estrange the two countries.
