AMERICA AND GERMANY.
LONDON, June 2.
The; Times, in a leading article, says: “ States is the sole guardian of her own rights and honour, but the doctrine that Germany has laid down directly concerns the whole world as well as the principals. Neither right nor law exists for Germany when at war; Stripped of its irrelevancies the Note amounts to a flat refusal of American demands.” AMSTERDAM, June 3. The German newspapers have en= tered upon a fresh campaign against America, accusing her of exercising her neutrality in favour of the Allies. The newspapers, with the consent of the military censorship, declare that if Germany must choose between a rup*
ture with the United States and a stoppage of submarine warfare, it will undoubtedly favour the rupture, what* ever the consequences. LONDON, June 2.
Copenhagen reports from Berlin state that the feeling in political circles there is that America is not only playing into Britain’s hands, but has actually concluded a formal understanding with the Allies.
