BERLIN. Sept. 12.-Emperor william, in
saying goodbye TO Generals Corbin, Young
and Wood today, remarked that he was
specially interested in three Americans.
He admired President Roosevelt unmeas-
ureably; he admired his versatility, eour-
age, power for hard work and insight into
the needs Of the country.
His majesty said he watched Mayor Seth
Lows administrator of New York because
he thought it important to the commercial
world that New York City should be we'll
governed.
Emperor William said he was also very
sorry Andrew d. White, the United States
ambassador. was leaving his court. He had
the most cordial feeling Tor him personally
because of the man he is, and because Of
his services in fostering good will between
Germany and the United States.
General Corbin had an opportunity to
present President Roosevelt's message
about the st. Louis exposition, and En-
peror William said he would see that Ger
many had a good representation. II will
send you a large party" he added pleas
sntly.
Message to the President.
His majesty sent some personal mes
sages to President Roosevelt through. Gen
eral Corbin and asked to be remembered
kindly to Miss Alice as he called Miss
Roosevelt.
The emperor conversed with each Of the
Americans and told them how much he had
enjoyed their visit. The farewell took place
on the field Just after Emperor William had
returned from leading the cavalry charge
which concluded the maneuvers. His mai
esty had bivouacked again with the cavalry

in a wide detour from a position in front
OF the right flank of the Reds CRussians) to
their rear division. Nearly 10000 horse
men left the camp at 4:5O o'clock and the
recall was sounded at HOS a. m.
General Corbin, who rode down the line
Immediately afterward said he did not see
a horse which was blown OUT He con-
sidered 1t a magnificent performance and
did not believe any cavalry in the world
could surpass II.
General Corbin and Earl Roberts both
said, in summing up their impression Of the
maneuvers, that the German army is the
most wonderful in the world.
German Army
There may possibly be a difference among
military men" General Corbin said, "as to
certain details, but the army altogether is
matchless."
What pleased the American generals as
much as anything was the spirit among the
troops. The Americans had a notion that
the rank and file had to be dragooned into
the service, but instead of that being SO they
liked to serve and liked the army beyond
any other institution in the country. The
Germans love for the army was in itself a
tremendous force.
In speaking to General Young of the pos
sibility of Prince Henry of Prussia's second
visit to the United States, Emperor William
said Prince Henry might go next April when
the statue of Frederick, the Great, presented
by his majesty to the United States. is un-
yelled at Washington, although the princes
sea duties might prevent this.
Won WaIdersee May Come.
Field Marshal Count Won Waldersee told
the Americans that he hoped next year to
see them in the United States. He had been
intending to visit the countess country for
some time and he now believed he could say
he had an opportunity to go. Count Won
Waldersee, though n years Of age, is still
on the active list of the army. He was on
horseback for hours every day during the
maneuvers.
The cavalry charge today was as fine a
chow as that Of yesterday and from a stra-
tegical viewpoint it was altogether posi-
BILE.
The blues" (Germans) first broke up the
reds" masses Of infantry by a terrific fire
from thirty machine guns and forty pieces
OF artillery, and then, when the infantry was
theoretically demoralized the cavalry swept
down upon them.
The American officers left Berlin tonight,
General Corbin, Lieutenant Colonel John A.
Johnston, General Young and Lieutenant
Mckinley went to Dusseldorf. Thence they
will go to Paris and from there to London
General Wood and Lieutenant Mccoy have
started for Dresden. Thence they will travel
in Austria.
