HIS INSTRUCTIONS CONDEMNED
Emperor William Is Criticised for His Talk
to the Departing Troops.
Some Papers Try to Place Mild Construction on
His Words, But Others Do Not and Make
s Sarcastic and Caustc Remarks.

copyrighted, 1900, by Associated Press)
Berlin, July 2s.-Emperor Williams ad-
dress to the soldiers comprising the Oh ma
expedition forms the subject OF general
discussion today. The emperor'S insiruc-
tions to spare no Chinese snd mako no
prisoners are condemned by nearly every
body and also by the press.
The Lokal Anzelger pretends that the
emperor did not mean what his words i'm
piled. but that he merely meant 20 cau-
tion the members of the expedition that
they would meet foe who does not spare
and makes no prisoners. But nearly all
the other papers commenting on the en-
peroS's speech strongly argue against It.
The Tageblatt. IN a specially caustic man
ner, reminds the emperor that telling his
soldiers to carry civilization into China
and IN the same breath enjoining them to
deal with ferocious severity there do not
tally. Besides the paper argues, the en-
peror has no right to 80 instruct the ex-
