Italy Kept in Dark.
Under date of July l'J, there is a docu
I ment which proves conclusively that all
the aggressive plans against Serbia wer
I batched and executed behind the back of
Italy, a member of the triple alliance. In-
deed, as previous documents have shown,
everything was done to prevent the slight-
est Inkling of the Austro trerman machlna
lions from filtering through to Rome.
This deliberate secrecy was later cited bv
Italy us a proof of her former allies' bad
faith.
The document of July l'J. is a note from
Count Herchtold to the Austrian Ambassa-
dor at Rome, telling him that the rejected
action against Serbia wa> being termed for
about the end of July, ami that Italy was
to be confronted with the ialt ueeoiupli
(accomplished fact).
(This was obviously done for the dual
purpose of preventing Italy from register-
ing protest and keeping her from direct-
ing her own political orientation in accord-
ance with what was happening).
On Julv 17. Von Jagow. (then German
Foreign Minister», sent, a note to Tsehir*
seliky at Vienna asking him to obtain
from Herchtold a definition of the latter *
plan for the partition of Serbia.
Solicit \ lew* of AuNtrbt.
"It is necessary.'' Von Jagow said in thai
note, "for the German government to be
iu possession of the Austrian views regard-
ing the future of Sorbin, since the ques-
tion would materially infhence the at-
exeited by the fleet movements order,

I'Uen following this additional apology
by Germany lor even i^oing so lar as to
transmit the English mediation offer:
"If Germany were llahy t«» declare to

"The German government, moreover. )
