One Reason Why His Exeauatur as Consul
to Aix.ia.Chapellc is Held Up.
WASHINGTON. Sept 4.-The State De-
rartment is waiting for an explanation
from j. Martin Miller. appointed last March
as the American Consul at AK la Cha
pelle, Germany, Of the reason given by the
German Government for holding up Mr..
Millers exequatur. Mr.. Miller is now in
this country on leave of absence He has
never formally taken up his duties as Consul
and his status is not clearly defined.
The State Department has refused to
make public the reasons assigned by the
German Government for refusing to accept
Mr.. Miller as an American consul, but it
is pretty we'll Understood that 1t Is because
OF the writings Of Mr.. Miller. who on. various
occasions has attacked the Germans.
Particularly offensive to that Govern
ment, it is believed, is his published accou mt
OF the differences between the command
ing officers Of the American and German
troops in China in 1900.
Gen. Chaffee, commanding the American
forces. and Count Won Waldersee had
spirited controversy over the division Of
Chafee was very plain spoken in telling
the German what he thought OF his methods.
Mr.. Miller published a book concerning
the campaign in China, which he witnessed
in the capacity OF war correspondent:
He again criticized the Germans with regard
to their policy in Samoa. An interview
with Admiral Dewey was in effect another
attack on Germany.
Mr.. Miller returned to this country last
week When he landed he said that he
came back because Of the serious illness OF
his father. He went to his home in New
Jersey. 1t is expected that he will come
to Washington soon and confer with Off
GERS of the State Department regarding the
action Of the German Government.
