The Powers Considerably Irritated by His Actions.

London, May 7.—Rumors that the relations between Germany and Russia are strained on account of slights on the part of Count von Waldersee are discredited at the foreign office.

It may be authoritatively stated that if the British diplomats had any reason to believe the rumors it would cause them no little satisfaction and they would not take the trouble to discredit them.
