AN AUSTRIAN FEELER
COUNT CZERNIN STRIKES A HUMILITY NOTE. (Kcc. July 22, 7.30 p.m.) Amsterdam, July 21. Count Czcrnin, in a speech in the Austrian Upper House, declared that Au& tria had no direct friction with Britain Austria was less unpopular, weaker, less dangerous, and more- moderate in her demands than Germany, and was fairly free from, annexationist desires. Tims she was absolutely predestined to fill the role of mediator, but this could only bo possible provided sho seoared tho full confidence of Berlin. Count Czerniii hoped that Germany's war aims remained purely defensive. It would be .mere presumption that such a terrible war should be prolonged fo- a foreign State's annexationist aims, which would endanger the alliance.—Router.
