Germany Will Leave Coghlan Mat
ter to United States.
Washington, April 22.-The German
ambassador. DIR. Won Holleben, called
on Secretary Hay today. which led to
reports that the attention of the state
department had been called to the re-
marks of Captain Coghlan of the cruis-
er Raleigh at the New York banquet
last night relating his personal obser-
vations of a rebuke and threat admin
istered by Admiray Dewey to the Ger
man naval commanders at Manila.
1t was stated positively. however.
that no protest or representations were
made, as it is understood in German
querters that this is a matter in which
the authorities of the United States
should be left to take the initiative
At the same time it is known Captain
Coghlan's remarks caused considerable
displeasure in high diplomatic and
naval quarters, mainly because they are
contrary to the policy which the two
governments have adopted of giving as
little public expression as possible to
the friction which may have occurred
at Manila.
In several quarters there is a. disposi-
tion to regard Captain Coghlan's state
ment as giving rather ugly truths
'. hich have heretofore been CLOSED
over on the grounds of public policy
The naval officers have shared the pol
icy of maintaining the frictiOnS at Man
liza, but in the present case owing To
Captain Coghlan's splendid service they
are not disposed to be cautious In their
criticism of his utteranceS.
