An item dated Berlin, Germany 12th reported that that what the Nowoje Wremja [a Russian daily newspaper] published over the contents of the German-Austrian naval conference at Konopisjt (1) was nonsense. The intention was no more than just to create enthusiasm for new military and political treaties between the powers allied in the Triple Entente [Russia, United Kingdom and France] during the visit of president Poincare (2) to Russia.
