NEWS MEN DEFEND GERMANS
Correspondents Fail to Confirm Stor-
les OF German Brutality.

New York, Sept. THE Associa-
ciated Press has received by wireless
from Berlin a message, which follows.
1t was sent from Aix-la- Chapelle to
Berlin for transmission. The au-
thors, all of whom are well-known
American newspaper men, were orig
inally assigned to Brussels, and when
that city was taken they were re-
turned to Aix-la-Chapelle, from which
city they have been endeavoring to
reach London, but without success.
The telegram was partly mutilated by
interference and certain words are
missing, but the text here given is
clearly that intended by the authors:
In spirit we unite in rendering
German atrocities groundless, as far
as we are able to learn. After spend
ing the weeks with and accompanying
the troops upward of 100 miles we are
unable to report a single instance un-
provoked. We are also unable to con-
firm rumors Of mistreatment of prison
ers of noncombatants with the Ger
man columns.
This is true of Louvain, Brussels,
Luneville and Nancy, while in Prus-
sian hands. We visited Chateau, Sol
DIRE, Sambre and Beaumont without
substantiating a single wanton brutal
ity. Numerous investigated rumors
proved groundless. Everywhere we
have seen Germans paying for pur-
chases and respecting property
rights, as well as according civilians
every consideration"
