A WARNING TO GERMANY.
M. POINCARE'S INTENTIONS. SPEECH ENDORSED BY FRANCE. By Tefetrrach —Pr«t»* Aaeocfntiou—■CoDFriKb* •'The Tim?*” Service. (■Received August 24. 8.40 p.m.) PARIS, August 22. The Paris correspondent of the • Times ” sa3*s that M. Poincare’s speech is endorsed by the Press, and meetings throughout the country have immensely strengthened his position. Practically the whole country is behind him and the failure of the London Conference has not weakened, but actually consolidated Ins power. Cognisance must be taken of the fact that the speech was intended to go above the heads of the British and French, and lo constitute a thundering and menacing warning to Germany, since the root of the French policy is based on the idea that nothing can come from a Germany that does not believe that, as a last resort, France will be prepared to act coercively.
