Chancellor von Betlimauu-Hollweg, in the Reichstag, charged the Allies with blood-guiltiness in concealing the real situation in England. Already, lie said.- she had abandoned the fable that she- was fighting for Belgium. She had strangled commerce t conrpeL led neutral ships on the High Seas to take;British ’crews aboard, ami occu'pied icei-tai’n Creek Islands.

A correspondent of the Koelhische Yolks Zeitung says: “It was as if the Chancellor was filled with physical loathing when he spoke of Sir Edward Grey’s frivolity and blood-guilt, and when Hollweg spoke of England; The House listened breathlessly to his description of how England strangled and violated the rights of neutrals. When Hollweg pleaded for having had good intentions in his former pro-English policy, the Reichstag accepted his explanation, although there was little or no applause.” KAISER DECORATES TIRPITZ.
