GERMANY-ENGLAND RELATIONS STRAINED.
New York, Dec. 17. Feeling between England and
Germany has been bitter for many months, dispite the ap
oarent efforts of their rulers to impress the people with a
show of friendship. The growing breach has recently
been greatly widened by the utterances of Count von
Bulow the German Chancellor, and Joseph Chamberlain, Evans, and SsUooai salutes of 21 guns
British Colonial Secretary. Incidents and circumstances
of the war in South Africa are the brunt of the controversy
which, aided by outrageous caricatures in the German
press, might bring about complications of a far-reaching
nature.
