AN OUTSPOKEN AUSTRIAN. CERMANS HATED EVERYWHERE. ENGLAND AND RUSSIA-TWO WORLDS. (Received 8.55 a.m.) London, April 19. Count Julius Andrassy admitted to a Budapesth interviewer that the recent conference he attended at Berlin related to peace conditions. He regretted Germans were hated everywhere, especially the Prussian people. North Germans were not refined, being even brutish, and they would never obtain world-dominion. They had too many frontiers to their colonies, which only cost money. "England and Russia are two worlds," he said. "If Russia wins, she will rule from Constantinople to Pekin."
