GERMANY vs.. UN|TEDgTATES
THEY WILL NOT INTERFERE.
The GsFman EmhassaAeF EnfergfeweA-
Ne Protests Against fhe Remarks To-
GeEmany They Were mot Prepared
for Dewey's victory.

Herald from Washington says;
DR.. Theodore Won Hoileben, German
Ambassador, has given an authorized in
terview which may Be regarded as an
official statement 81 the attitude 81 Ger.
many. Speaking Of immediate questions
the ambassador said:
Without discussing the question Of ex-
panaion, which has become vital one, /
can say that Germany, At least, i not
interfering in what Is strictly the affair
Of the United States. The United States
does not object to our occupation Of China.
We have not In the Philippines any more
vital interest than America has in China.
Since the United States, although urged
to do 20, did mot protest against our en-
trance into her commercial domain in the
celestial empire, ne can not do more
courteous act than TO follow her example
and abstain from any criticism Of her aete
in Asiatie waters"
The ambassador emphaticaiiy protests
against continued limitations Of unfIinnd-
illness upon the part Of Germany and says.
..Nhen yon talk Of the Philippines and
the presence Of Large German feet in
those waters you must remember that
Germany had more valuable and more
numerous interests 10 protect than any
other power, England not excepted. In ad-
dition 10 our own interests NE had those
Of Austria, Switzerland and Portugal
''It must be remembered, TOO, that we
sere not prepared for the sudden victory
Of Dewey and the changes on the political
TAsrizon. We we're acting on the snppo-
sition that such nation a. Spain would
hold her own against the insurgents and
would be prepared to cope with state Of
anarchy. With the appearance Of the
United States AZ the sovereign power our
leAns vanished
