Berlin. June 1.-The visit of Queen Will
helmina and her husband Prince Henry
of the Netherlands and the military and
court festivities were favored with excep-
tionally fine weather, though hot, bring
ing thousands of foreign guests to Ber-
lin. simultaneously with the presence of
the French officers, many distinguished
strangers lent additional lustre and inter
est to the different functions. 1t was re-
markable that Gen. Bonnal and his suite.
throughout the week, wherever they went,
met with courteous reception by the
populace, even by the commonest labor
ers, when driving through the town, parks
and other places. One significant little
occurrence was described to the CORE
spondent of the Associated Press by Col.
Gallett, who accompanied Gen. Bonnal.
The Colonel said that while driving past
a group of asphalt street laborers they all
stopped work. drew up in a military at
titude and saluted. some OF them shout
ing, ''Vive la France. Our next allyn
Emperor William this week was in con-
tinuous good humor, smiling and acknowl-
edging the peoples hurrahs. For time
the provisions adopted for his safety were
somewhat lessened at his special request.
1t was noted that Queen Wilhelmiua
yesterday was greeted by the Berliners
with special fervor She was ceaselessly
bowling and smiling. In court circles the
report that Queen Wilhelnina was in a
delicate state of health finds credence. 1t
was noted that very little attention was
paid to her husband, who looked gloomy.
The Emperor seldom addressed him, but
frequently spoke to the Queen.
1t is said that during yesterday even
ng's gala performance at the opera when
the body of the house was crowded with
generals in brilliant uniforms, Queen
WiIhelmina said laughingly:
Il did not think there were so many
generals in the world"
Are Worried About Us.
The German press this week devoted
much space to the discussion of the rela-
lions between the United States and Ger
many. Correspondence from the United
States has appeared in the Kreuz Zeitung
and other influential papers, describing
the spread of anti-German sentiment in
the United States" Some of the CORE
spondents go to the length of asserting
that American papers are Systematically
infiaming the public mind to war against
Germany. The papers here unanimously
maintain that all the alleged German
plans for acquisition, either of coaling
stations or independent colonies in Cen
trail or South America, ARE sensational
inventions"
The Berliner Tageblatt contains an ar
ticle in which, on the authority, partly OF
correspondence partly of statements made
by returned German Brazilian, and part
ly on extracts from the Brazilian press
kilograms. the charge is made that the
United States is systematically intringu-
ing in Brazil against legitimate German
colonial and commercial influence poison
ing the Brazilians' minds and conveying
the idea that Germany intends to go to
war and seize Brazil. The Tageblatt ed
itorially advised the foreign Office to
more determinedly deny such charges and
also prove untrue the often repeated state
ment that Germany intends to disregard
and destroy the Monroe doctrine.
