 Berlin, Sept. 25.-The reported Ameri. can ultimatum to Spain has been re- ceiyed with pronounced displeasure by the entire German press. The official denial from Washington is generally disbelieved here, and the denunciation of jingoism, Yankee insolence, and the ridiculing of the Monroe doctrine. have filled the newspapers. The conservative press, as usual, is the most violent in denouneing American aspirations. The Kreuz Zeitung in an editorial on the Forums article by ex-Secretary Herbert on the Cuban question, condemns the policy outlined therein and concludes:
 "If more sober afterthought does not damn the stream of American Chauvin- ism, we Germans shall not feel sorry in the event that the Americans finally reach sounder judgment relative to their power, 1. e., if they got drubbing to teach them that nobdy may disturb the peace with immunity.
 The Staatsburger zeitung, another leading organ, says: "A coalition of all the European countries is absolutely necessary to repulse the schemes of American patriotism and jngoism as both are becoming more and more inso- lent"
 The same newspaper claims that Spain has been assured of Germany's support in the event of the United States taking hostile steps.
 The correspondent of the Assock, ted Press here has made inquiries at the German foreign office and in other quar- ters which show that, while Spain has approached Germany through her Ber- lin ambassador repeatedly during the past year, in regard to this, she has only been assured of the moral sympathy of Germany in her struggle to quell the Cuban insurrection and of the willing ness of Germany to cooperate with the other big powers in re4establishing by
 
 ing between Span and the United States in case serious difficulties arise. No other assurance has been given to Spain. nor Is it at all likely that Germany will engage to do more in the future.
 The speech of Herr Haussman, leader or the South German peoples party at Mannheim early during the week, has caused intense excitement in political circles. Herr Haussmann reviewed the action of the reichstag and the govern ment during the last two years and was particularly outspol0en in condemning Emperor Williams uterances and views of politics. Satirizing the emperor,s Divine right speech recently delivered at Eoblentz, Herr Haussman said:
 We are not afraid of coup d'etat, German citizens know their strength Nobody can withstand the will of the nation, neither man, minister nor en- peror. Nobody is able to crush that will. German spirit is not controlled by cannons. but by thoughts, and it won't be squelched under the picket haube. Things cannot continue much longer as at present For the good of Germany there must come a change for the better.
