General Won Emmich was com mander of the Tenth Army Corps. He figured prominently in the early events of the war; being in command of German troops which invaded Bel gium. It was he who issued an ap1 peal to the Belgian people not to re- sist the Germans.
 The heavy loss of life of the Ger mans at Liege was said to have shat tered the confidence of the general, and a report that he had committed suicide gained wide currency in Au- gust of last year. He was decorated with the Order of Merit last June.
 General Von Epmich joined the army on the day of Prussia's victory over Austria at Sadowa, in 1866. He fought as lieutenant in the Franco Prussian war, was made colonel in 1897 and in 1901 attained the rank of major general He became lieutenant general and commander of the Tenth Corps in 1905.
