KAISER CHANGES METHODS
Reads Speech From Printed Form or
This Occasion.

Berlin, Nov. 23.-Emperor William
made a public speech in this city on
the occasion of the centennial celebra-
tion of the formation of the city coun-
Gil Of Berlin. Instead of speaking
extemporaneously, as is his usual GUS
tom, he read his address from a print
ed form that was handed him by
Chancellor Won Buelow. His majesty
said:
"The municipality Of Berlin was
created in the midst of the fire of the
wars of liberation, but since that time
1t has been developed by the devo
tion of the citizens OF the capital
This gives me the hope that the mu
nicipality of the future also will re
tain the spirit of true citizenship and
that nothing will force itself between
the prince and the people"

The World declares that Emperor
William knew when he made these
statements that Dr. Hale was an
American newspaper man and maga-
zine writer, but that nevertheless the
statements were made without reser-
walton and that no SECRECY was inn
posed The interview had been for
mally arranged through the German
foreign Office, it is said, and that at
the conclusion of the interview Dr.
Hale returned to Berlin and told high
officials of the foreign office of the
success he had had.
"They forbade him to publish it."
the World story continues. Then
they explained to him at some length
that even hint at possibilities so
serious, coming from one who had
been the emperor's guest, might throw

these officials is said to have been

1t is said that DR.. Hale obeyed the
instructions of the foreign office in
! the preparation of his interview, but
later when the manuscript was sub
mitted to the high German officials
"they are said to have so butchered it
that little which was worth while was
left" 1t was in this final form, ac-
cording to the World, that the article
was accepted by the Century. 1t was
practically ready for publication when
the request came from Berlin that
even the interview in it's revised
form be suppressed. Then the cleo
trotypes and all copies of the inter.
view were destroyed before the public
announcement that the interview had
been withdrawn was made.
