taken no stand in opposition to the
United States in the affairs of Cen
tral and South America Germany has
issued no statement that could he
construed into antagonism Of the
American government in what that
government has done, is doing. or
may do in Nicaragua This declara-
ton was made at the German foreign
office this evening.
Special dispatches received here
from Washington and other American
cities reports that the German foreign
office had issued a statement today
that Germany refuses to recognize
any right on the part Of the United
States to supervise her diplomatic re.
lations with other countries. Central
and South American countries in gem
eral and Nicaragua in particular
When this report was placed before
the foreign office II was glen an en-
phatic denial No such statement an
official declared angrily, had been is
sued by that department or by any
other department of the German gov.
ernment.
He affirmed that no declaration %
such a nature could be made because
there was no necessity for it and
therefore anything published in such
a sense was pure Invention.
German government officials are
greatly wrought up by the attempts
made to have this country appear In
Q role of antaeonism to the United
States when on tho contrary Il has
been the desire Of the government 10
develop both the commercial and Dip
lomatic relations with America.

anne necessary today in order that

,laced on 1t, to issue "A statement
through the foreign office, explain
ns that the letter was merely form
II acknowledgment of a notice re-
,eived from Madriz OF his election TO
the presidency
This explanation was accompanied
" the statement that Germany had
10 intention Of interoning in any way
n Nicaraguan affairs and that the re-
ported offer by AIadria of q coaling

vas not made to Germany. Of late SO
Iagrant has been the use of priyi-
ege accorded by the foreign office
o certain correspondents that the ad- |
disability Of eXpelling them twice has
,een considered and one has already |
,een barred on account of sensation
