On Thursday night was published a new White Paper containing
a report of the last incidents in Berlin written by our ifinbassador, Sir Edward Goschen. The Emperor had the bad taste to send an Aide-de-Camp to the Ambassador with a truculent message resigning his honorary posts in the British Navy and Army. Sir Edward confirms the report that. the German Chancellor harangued him for twenty
minutes on the iniquity of Britain making war for "the word neutrality," "for a scrap of paper." Sir Edward Goschen's answer was altogether admirable, and altogether worthy of his country and of the occasion.
