PARIS, Nov. 22.-The Dutch Legation
to-day published note containing a
declaration by the President OF the
Netherlands Council OF Ministers TO the
Chamber Of Deputies, eaY!ng the former
German Emperor entered Dutch tori
tory after his abdication as private
parsonage. The note says the kind OF
refuge granted TO him 10 similar to that
given to all foreign refugees and that
the Government could not make any ex-
ception on account of his former posi-
ton when he asked to be admitted to
Dutch territory.
This does not prevent the Government,
says the note, from carrying out the
duty OF watching that the former En-
peror does not commit any abuse OF asy-
lum which would render hospitality det-
rlmental TO the interests Of the country,
the note adds that the Netherlands Gov
eminent does not believe that foreign
Governments. whose subjects SO often
have had the beneit Of Dutch refuge
will refuse to respect national tradition
or to remember instances when they
themselves save hospitality to dethroned
monarchs.
In addition the note says that the
former Emperor has not in q single In
stance left the park OF the Amerongeu
castle, where he is interned.
