THE ARCH-INTRIGUER
HOW BERNSTORFF'S TREACHERY WAS REVEALED
A "FIND" IN HIS LUGGAGE
London, October M. . At an American luncheon to the Japanese Ambassador, Mr. Frank _ Powell, the chairmap, said that the Mexican dispatch in which Germany expressed the liono that Mexico would involve America ana Japan in hostilities was captured in Count Bernstorit'e luggage at Hulifax. The American authorities refused to believe that such perfidy was possible, until Count Bernstorff's papers supplied the proof. Viscount Chinda (who was Japanese Ambassador to Washington for some years till 1916, and then became Ambassador to London), in reply, said he was personally aware that Germany had long engaged in intrigues to cause trouble between America and Japan. The speaker laughed to scorn the Continental rumours of a secret treaty between- Japan and Germany.—Aus.-N.Z. Cable Assn.
