RAP AT THE KAISER.
Vorwaerts Accuses Him Of Attempt
ing to Influence Justice

BERLIN, November 2s.-The Vorwaerts
today, commenting on Emperor William s
speech at Essen Wednesday, the day of the
funeral Of Herr Krupp, says:
"While prosecution is still pending against
us and the truth is not yet judicially as
certained the emperor anticipates the
courts findings by pronouncing our guilt
out Of hand. Is it allowed that the crown
at the initiatory stage Of pending case
utter a verdict and thereby place the judges
In the painful dilemma Of either contra
dieting his majesty or subJecting themselves
to the suspicion that their judgment was
Influenced by him? Justice stands above
everybody, even above the emperor, and the
freedom Of the courts is the life and nerve
Of every state"
The paper adds: The monarchy is con-
stitutionally irresponsible. An adequate an
swer to the emperor's speech Is prevented
through the lese jeste paragraphs"
The Vorwaerts, in two columns, reaffirms
in moderate language the truth of It's origs
inal charges against the late Herr Krupp,
and alleges that the evidence rests on the
testimony of persons quite above party
passion, personal interest or political hate.

ton Of wire rods and wire products.
The drift seems to be. toward the concen-
tration Of business in the hands Of the larger
companies, especially In steel products,
The scarcity and high prices of raw ma
terial together with the reduction in the
finished product, have diminished the out
put of the smaller producers, who do not
control their raw materials, and the larger
companies are securing much greater
share of current business than short time
since.
