LOOKING AHEAD. WITHOUT TREPIDATION. Received 11.5 p.m., July 9th. BERLIN, July 9. Tho Cologne ''Yolks Zietung" hints that the Kaiser's -action in promoting Herr Kuhn, Secretary of tho Imperial Treasury, to the rank of a Prussian Minister, is directly connected with a great new financial programme for naval expansion. The Grand Duke Ferdinand's 'assassination is regarded in some quarters as weakening the effect of Austiia's war establishment. Germany therefore is compelled to prepare to bear single-handed the brunt- of a Central European struggle.
