RELATIONS OF THE POWERS.
KAISER'tf SENSATIONAL TELEGRAM, MALEVOLENT REBUKE TO ITALY. TELEGRAM UNIVERSALLY DISPROVED. TRIPLE ALLIANCE GONE TO PIECES. Received 16, 9 p.m. London, April 16.
" The Times " says the Kaiser's remarkable telegram was intended as a sharp lessou to Italy. Its aspect of menace and reproof is most significant. Tho German Press disapprove the telegram. The " Frankfurter Zeitung " says the Triple Alliance has already gone to pieces. Austrian comment states the malice in tho telegram was clearly intended for Italy, yet the Kaiser rendered Count Goluchowski signal dis-servicc. German abstention from any official condolence, or any assistance to the sufferers at Vesuvius is much com. mented on in Italy, whero tho Kaiser's soreness is attributed to the Algecifas Conference.
Emperor Joseph, of Austria, sent n message of condolence to King Emmanuel, with a personal gift of four hundred pounds for the Vesuvius relief fund.
The signilieanee of the Kaiser's nies-iii"e-bceoinos appifrent when it is remembered that Germany, Austria and Italy are tl(e Powers forming the Triple Alliance, and the Kaiser appears to desire to relegate his partners in that alliance to a position of less importance than that of Germany. About threo weeks ago the opinion wits oppressed by "II Secolo," a Milan paper, thai the Algeciras Conference had shown Germany's isolation, and marked tho end of the Triple Alliance, adding that the compact on paper was no longer in accord witji Italian feelings. Since the Russian armies aud Hoots irtre crushed by Japan, Germany is the strongest Power in Europe, and the Kaiser's telegram to the Austrian Minister may be his Majesty's method of stating that fact.
