informs the correspondent here Of the
Associated Press that the persistent state
ments of the American and British press,
"often coupled with insulting comment,
Alleging that the Emperor intends 10 ac-
lively interfere in behalf of Spain, and
imputing to his Majesty sentiments which
were actually foreign TO him at the open
ing OF hostilitles," have greatly annoyed
the Emperor and the constant reitera-
tions of the erroneous statements as 10

pleased Emperor william exceedingly"
The informant Of the correspondent of
the Associated Press continued: ma
turally, the Emperor and the government
are seriously annoyed at the wholly
groundless charges. Patience is Yir-
tue, but there is limit to it,
In contrast TO the above official utter
ance. there are a variety OF indications
in regard 10 the Philippine Islands. The
officials Of the Foreign Office say Ger
many's strong naval display at Manila
is made merely TO protect German sub
Jects, and a part Of the press adopts the
same attitude, based on the Foreign-Ohice
statement saying the imputauon that
Germany means to interfere in the Ameri-
can operations or in the American occu-
patton of the Philippine Islands is base
less, as Germanys naval force there is
altogether too small for such a purpose.
PRESS GENERALLY UNFRIENDLY.
Nevertheless many editorials are couch
ed in quite a different tone and spirit.
Generally speaking, the German news
papers continue their unfriendly tone to-
wards America, though they are some
what more cautious.
All the recent news from Cuba and the
Philippine Islands is interpreted as being
unfavorable TO the United States, and
the Guantanamo-Bay affair is dubbed
defeat, unqualifedly.
Nevertheless the papers are now print
ing numerous communications from pro-
Americans, protesting against the persist
ent abuse and SANDER TO which Ameri-
cans have been subjected since the open
ing of the war.
