may be called the anti British action OF
tha press does not conceal its annoyance
and the moderate Anglophobe organize
tions with diiIicrlty repress the utter
knces of disappointment
The inspired journals declare that it
was Germany's desire to intimate def.
nitely that Mr.. Kruger's visit would not
be welcome, aud therefore. the fact that
he omitted to comply with che strict
etiquette of the German court and de-
ferred asking Emperor William for an
audience until he had reached the Belgo-
German frontier. was eagerly seized ~
q reason for denying him an audience.
Mr.. Kruger's reception at Cologne
was exceedingly enthusiastic 30 far AZ
the citizens were concerned. They had
planned = torchlight procession and ser.
enades, but the police forbade both.
Mr.. Kruger's dispatch to Count vor
Buelow, the imperial chancellor and e
the heads Of the German states were
left unanswered. There il no doubt
that as late as Saturday foreign offic'
officials contemplated that Mr.. Kruge
would be received In Berlin today
Emperor William and Count Won Bue
