to Americans.
CuXhaven, March 19.-The return of
Admiral Prince Henry of Prussia to
German soil was safely accomplished
Tuesday afternoon amid all the pomp
and circumstance with which the
princes imperial brother has seen fit
to mark the successful ending of Prince
Henry's American mission. The
neutrality-suspicious. line steamer
Deutschland, from Cherbourg, having
on board the prince and his suite, was
first sighted at half past five Tuesday
afternoon. The German battleship
Kaiser Wilhelm II. steamed down the
roadstead to meet the Deutschland,
and returned escorting the big liner.
The Deutschland tied up to the new
stone quay and was the first ship to
dock there. Emperor William stood
upon the quay, surrounded by high
naval and municipal officials. AS rep
resentative of the American embassy
at Berlin, Commander William H.
| Beehler, the naval attache to the en-
| bassy, stood at the emperor's side.
The quay was decorated with the
flags of all the states of the empire,
and the thousands of spectators who
covered the roofs of the great ware
houses and the wide slopes overlook
ing the scene, cheered wildly as Prince
Henry walked down the gangway from
the steamer. Emperor William kissed
his brother upon both cheeks and
shook hands with the members of his
suite, saying a few cheerful sentences
TO each. In the meantime the guns
OF the squadron saluted. Side by side
his majesty and Prince Henry then
passed down in front of the marine
guard, which stood at salute. After
this the marine guard passed in re-
view, while the band of the imperial
yacht Hohenzollern played the ma
tional anthem.
Board the Warship.
The passengers on the Deutschland
crowded to the steamers rail and
cheered heartily during the ceremony.
Some of the American passengers
waved little American flags; otherwise
the Stars and Stripes were not flying.
After the inspection of the guard of
honor and the veterans by Emperor
William his majesty and his party,
Prince Henry and his staff and Com
mander Beehler boarded tender and.
amid fresh salutes music and cheering
proceeded to the battleship Kaiser
Wilhelm III. Upon arriving there the
crew OF that vessel manned their ship
to receive the royal personages. The
Kaiser Wilhelm III. weighed anchor at
a quarter past seven and started to-
ward Kiel through the canal. A ban
quet was served on board the war
ship.
AS the steamer drew near to Cux-
haven, Prince Henry received the cor
respondent of the press in his cabin.
The prince, speaking with deep feel
ing, said:
II desire to send last word through YOU
TO America, to say how deeply grateful
am for the measureless kindness 1 re-
ceived while there. 1 tried to say this be-
tore l left. but want to say again that
am grateful for the cordial and gener-
Gus manner in which the people and the
president of the United States received
me. ! met and talked with as many indi-
viduals as I could, but of course 1 saw
most of the people in crowds, and some
times only from the railroad car plat
FORM ao and only long enough to touch my
cap or take off my hat to them. / wish
to thank all those thousands for the
| trouble they took. I had no opportunity
of studying the details of industry as I
would like to have done"
Ready to Do 1t Again.
AS to the fatigue of the trip, the
prince said:
Il was often tired, and had to be care
full of what l said both publicly and pri-,
vately. But since my long sleeps on board
the Deutschland l would be ready to re-
turn to America at once for just such an
I other trip. This one has been so full of
pleasure and instruction. 1t is good
thing to look upon another people face
to face and form your own Impressions"
His Philadelphia Speech.
Concerning his speech at Philadel-
phia. Prince Henry added:
ut seemed proper l should make some
| such utterance, for there are always some
undercurrents running that have to be
taken into account. What I said in my
Philadelphia speech was precisely the
truth. 1t might have been thought that dur
| ing my talks with President Roosevelt.
and my ride with him alone, might have
said word or two of political character,
but such was not the case. No political top
| lie was alluded to on either side"
Prince Henry referred to President
Roosevelt's attentions, and said he had
not received the presidents farewell
telegram as he was by that time at
sea, and that he only saw the text of
the message upon his arrival at Plym-
outh.
The interest Emperor William takes
in Prince Henry's trip was then men
toned. In this connection Prince Hen
ry said to the correspondents 81 shall
tell his majesty exactly what l have
told you; namely, how i appreciate
the kindness shown me by the people
of America. 1 wish to add special
word of thanks for the sympathetic
way in which the American papers
treated me-"
In conclusion, the emperor's brother
said: you may be sure the impress
sions l received will be lasting"
