seemed to have a latent fear that the
United States would graduate from a
helpless paciflst nation to a nation pre-
pared to defend itself. This did not
Mt all suit German policies.
Meanwhile the fact that the Raleigh
had fired a shot across the bows of
tie German cruiser Cormoran was be-
ing made matter Of international
importance by the Germans. There
were rumors that the Imperial Ger
man Government would demand an
apology from Admiral Dewey. Re-
ports flew thick and fast concerning
measures which Germany would take
up with Washington. Admiral Dewey.
desiring to see how far matters had
progressed and also wanting to know
whether American authority was to
continue to be ignored, wrote the fol-
lowing note to Vice-Admiral Diede-
richs:
Of exercising or claiming the droit de
visite of neutral vessels Of war What
do claim is the right to communicate
with all vessels entering this port. now
blockaded by the forces under my COM
mand," sc.
In spite Of this note the Germans
continued to be a source of trouble to
Admiral Dewey as long as their ships
remained in Manila harbor.
The discourteous manner in which
the Germans treated Dewey's request
for the return Of the American de-
serter, the slight which Prince Henry
gave to the honor OF the nation be-
fore the naval representatives Of the
other Powers and the arrogance of
Diederichs and his refusal to recog-
nize Dewey's rules OF blockade all
combined to make lasting impress
sion on the American officer. From
that day until the day OF his death
Admiral Dewey is said to have had
tho firm conviction that the Teuton
dream of world domination was n
menace which had to he very seriously
considered.
When last talked to Admiral
Dewey in Washington II was in con-

joklngly remarked that 1t was always
dangerous for him to talk about Ger

sion to win the rich prizes on the At

this in effect was the German plan
which Senator James Hamilton ..gis
Of Illinois referred to in the Senate
last week when he told of q warning
received by Admiral Dewey from Ad-
miral Won Goetzen as long ago as 1898.
The idea seems plausible from the
German viewpoint. now that we have
seen German ambition in operation
for more than three years. 1t seemed
plausible to only q few Americans If
teen years ago. Admiral Dewey was
one Of the few.
Senator Lewis has informed me that
he was In error as to certain details
when he made his sensational state
ment on the floor of the Senate, and
he has made haste to correct the in
accuracies. These details. however.
are less important than the main
points brought out, namely, that Ad-
miral Dewey firmly believed Germany
had secret plans to embark on war
for world domination and that he did
all in his power to impress this warn
ing on the United States Government
Senator Lewis said that in the rec
ord Of Admiral Dewey appears the fol-
lowing statement made to him by Ad-
miral Won Goetzen at Manila in 1898.
About fifteen years from now my
country will start great war. She
! will be In Paris In about two months
after the commencement OF hostilities.
Her move on Paris will be but step
to her real ob1ect-the crushing Of
| England.
Some months after we finish our
| work In Europe We will take New
York. and probably Washington. and
hold them for some time. We will put
your country IN ats place with refer
ence to Germany. We do not propose
to take any of your territory. but we
| do intend to take billion or SO OF
your dollars from New York and other
| places.
| "The Monroe Doctrine will be taken
charge of by us and We will dispose
! OF South America as we wish. DOn't
forget this about fifteen years from
now"
1t develops now that Admiral VOC
Goetzen did not make the statement d.
rectly to Admiral Dewey, but that ht
made It to Major Barber of the United
States Army in Havana in 1898. As
Admiral Won Goetzen was acting as Of.
ficial observer for the Imperial Gov
ernment at the time. Major Barber Al
once made record OF the statement
and forwarded It to Admiral Dewey.

after the battle Of Manila Bay. Ad-
miral Dewey was at that time compil-
ing records which he subsequently SUBJ
mitted to the Navy Department In mar
rative form and which 30 impressed
officials that they were made public.
Part Of Dewey's revelations concern
ing Germr ! cmbition were, however,
commnica "a verbally to President
Mckinley anu to the Bureau Of Naval
Intelligence. 1t was OF course neces-
sary at that time TO avoid making pub
lie and official reports from Admiral
Dewey which might bring Official pro-
test from Berlin.
The statement communicated by
Major Barber harmUized with the
threats which German naval officers
made boastingly to Admiral Dewey af-
ter Vice Admiral Dlederichs arrived in
Manila Bay on his flagship. the Kali
serin Augusta, on May -, 1898. 1t
was perhaps for the purpose Of caus-
ing the American naval representa-
tives to show more regard for German
commands with respect to the block
ade regulations then being enforced
by Admiral Dewey that the Germans
sought to emphasize the difference be-
tween the rights OF the United States.
virtually helpless from a military
viewpoint, and those Of the Imperial
German nation, armed to the teeth.
Admiral Dewey in his records goes
into this phase of German arrogance.
but he first paves the way for 1t by
outlining the beginning of the friction
between American and German naval
representatives in the Far East at that
time.
aside from the crisis Of our rela-
tions with Spain," Admiral Dewey
said, at was a critical period In in
ternational relations in the Far East.
Germany, in forwarding her ambi-
tions for colonial expansion, had just
taken Kiaochow as n punitive meas
ure for the killing of missionaries.
thus bringing the province Of Shan
| tung under the sphere Of her influence.
"A feature OF the Imperial German
policy at this time was Che Kalser's
sending of his brother. Prince Henry
of Prussia. to the Far East, flying his
flag as Rear Admiral and second In
command of the German squadron.
The Prince arrived at Hongkong on
March 8.
"Soon after the arrival of the Ger
man squadron a curious international
incident arose. Some Of the German
seamen came on board the Olympia to
pay friendly visit to members Of our
crew, Among them was a seaman OF
the cruiser Gefion who was recognized
by the officer Of the deck and by Others
of our personnel as a deserter from
one OF our own ships. As nc wore the
German uniform and belonged to the
crew OF a German man-o-war he could
not well be arrested. But when the
fact that he was n deserter had been
proved indsputably he was ordered tc
leave the ship.

"Our flagship was of Cavite, our
colors were flying over the Cavite

paramount. In view Of these facts
the British, French and Japanese saw
and acted on the obvious propriety-
az foreign men Of war did in the civil
war-of reporting TO the commander

asking where they should anchor.
"The Irene had come from Naga-

Nevertheless she steamed by the
