GERMANY ~ TIE PHILIPPINES.

BY far the most serious presentation Of the
incident ut Subic Bay Is that made In the Ger
man press. Accounts Of II In the American
press have been brief, and comment thereon
temperate. What the British press has said
may. for the sake Of the argument, be passed
by. in Difference to the notion which seems to
be cherished here and there that the chief occu-
patton of that press is TO foment dlscord be-
tween this country and all others-a notion
which is quite erroneous, and which, II true,
would be Of not the least significance. But
what the German press. or considerable part
Of it, says, Is Enthusiastically n serious agra
walton Of the original offence. 1t is to be hoped
that It does not reflect the sentiments OF the
German Government. but Is as unauthorized as
we have wished 10 believe the conduct Of the
Irene to be. That hop, however, II must be
confessed. would be stronger II freedom Of the
German press from official influence were
greater.
The "K6lnische Zeitung" for example. de-
nounces the story OF the Irene's interference as
a fabrication. That raises most unpleasant
issue, seeing that the story is embodied In an
official report OF the United States Rear-Admi-
raj. 1t would certainly not be deemed courteous
or conducive to a friendly understanding for nm
important American paper TO denouncc ofr-hand
as falsehood the measured utterance OF high
German official Still worse is the cnse made
BY the ''Lokal Anzegcr" which does not deny
the story, but comedies the possibility that 1t is
true. and then adds CURLY that it was all right
and was none Of our business II the Irene did
act as reported "If the American Admiral"
continues this paper, secs fit to make common
"carse with the insurgent chiefs, II Is none Of
"our affair. Germany still preserves her neu-
"trolity toward Spain. and does not intend TO
recognize Aguinaldo and his hordes as bellig-
"erents" No. but what the Irene did was 10
make herself a beligerent against Aguinaldo
H. 20 paraphrase the "Anzeigers' own words
the Germans in the Philippines see At TO make
common cause with Spain. il may be none OF
our affair. but they would better keep out Of
Admiral Dcwcy's line Of fire.
The incident. as we have hitherto said. Ia not
to be overrated There Is still ground for hope
that II was merely a gross indiscretion OF the
sponsibilty and without the previous direction
or subsequent approval Of the German Govern
mcnt But some assure aces 10 that effect would
be- more becoming 10 the German press than the
intemperatc and defiant utterances which we
have quoted One OF those papers says II does
not believe any diplomatic step VIII be taken.
Perhaps not There Is an impression extant
that Rear Admiral Dewey Is pretty good dip
lomat. perhaps good enough TO manage the
management of both diplomatic and military
affairs has been altogether fawless, and 80 long
40 complications arc confined to the Philippines
