Synopsis
Excerpt from King Edward, the Kaiser and the War
Before England, he wrote in 1913, in the volume referred to, in 1897 we lay, as a competent critic at that time Observed, like butter before the knife.
Another German writer has been similarly de faming King Edward, following in the footsteps of the blatant libeller, Colonel Wagner. The new comer is Herr Rudolf Martin, the Berlin statistician, who, to his own satisfaction, proved ten or eleven years ago that Russia, as the result of her war with Japan, was absolutely bankrupt. Financial experts regarded Martin's conclusions as the offspring of a lunatic, and the events of the last two years have shown that the Views of the experts were accurate and that Martin's figures proved nothing but his stupidity. Although our papers give daily choice morsels from the German newspapers I have not seen any extracts from Martin's book on King Edward, but the Berlin, Cologne and Hamburg journals cannot have neglected the volume.
