AUSTRO-GERMANY.
WAR WAS INEVITABLE. _ ACCORDING TO WILHELM. % London, August 15. The Daily News gives further details of the Kaiser's interview with a neutral, cabled yesterday. He said: "It is curious how the British theory that I am responsible for the war seems to fascinate my enemies. I don't envy the man who has the responsibility upon Oiis shoulders. History will clear me of the charge, although I don't suppose history will hold ma faultless. Every civilised man in Europe must share the responsibilitv. I strove hard for peace even though war was inevitable. Why do neutrals talk of German militarism, but never of Russian despotism, the French craving for revenge, or English treaehery? The next generation will strike a juster balance in apportioning the blame.'' CONTRABAND GOODS. Copenhagen, August 15.
