Berlin special says : Some of the German press speculs tions as to England's attitude in the Balkan crisis, are somewhat inconse quent, On the one hand it is main tained that England has lost interest in Constantinople; on the other hand it is said England is at the Bottom of the trouble which she has secretly fos tered in order to occupy Russia. These arguments may be found in juxtaposi tion and it does not seem to occur to those using them that they neutralize one another, but the German press knows its public and knows that a statement detrimental to England is unlikely to be examined critically, DREW COLOR LINE.
