AUSTRALIA WILL GAIN MOST.

AT CONCLUSION OF THE GREAT WAR. | SAYS A GERMAN SEER. A PROPHECY MADE IN 1907. The following is an extract from a speech made by Victor E. Kioemar, in Stuttgart. Germany, at the InternationoJ Socialist Congress in August, 1907 : "The result of this war will be that Europe will be a dreadful place to live in, and that as soon as the war is over immigration on an unprecedented scale will take place to America and Australia, mainly to Australia. After the war a deeper sense of biotherhood will pervade all nations, resulting in tlie realisation of many of the ideals for which reformers have been striving for centuries. The outcome of the war will be as follows, accord'ng to my methods of rca.•soning from past causes to future effects, combined with intuitive peivepi -on and a knowledge of the occult (hidden). "After a terrific struggle, Germany will bo defeated on all sides, and a succeeding revolution will establish a Ger-man-Austrian Republic. The Slav part of Austria will go to Russia, and there will be a powerful Slav Federation. "A European Federation of nations will bo subsequently established. England and France will divide Africa between them, and England will control all the rest of the German colonies. "The English fleet will police the world, and no other _ fleets of any dimensions will be permitted. Australia will gain more than any otht nation as the outcome of the present disturbances, as population will flow in at a tremendous rate, and the commercial centres of the world will shift fron the Atlantic to the Pacific, through the increase of population and the opening of the Panama Canal.

Tremendous expansion will take place in Canada, particularly the Western States of America, and Australia, especially about the Federal Capital. which will become an immense manufacturing zone.
