GENEVA TRAGEDY.
SOME INNER HISTORY. M. BRIAND’S WIZARDRYEXERTED ON AN AILING MAN (Sydney Sun Cablo.) (Reoovlod March 16, 8.50 a.m.) LONDON, March 15. “ Tho tragedy of Genova is tho tragedy of Sir Austen Chamberlain in a senso hitherto not disclosed,” says tho Graphic, recording how ho first came to meddle with the idea of Poland’s entry to tho League Council. Sir Austen Chamberlain left Rapallo, where ho had been convalescing, before ho was completely cured, and met M. Briand In Paris when physically unfit and out of touch with British events and opinions. Tho discussions showed the French wizard at Ills subtlest, and he Impressed Sir Austen Chamberlain with the reasonableness of Poland’s claim. This was the starting-point of tho trouble. Had Sir Austen Chamberlain been less conscientious and remalnod In tho doctor’s hands a little longer there would have been no League crisis.
