APOLOGY OF CHINA.
Delivered by Prince Chun to the Kalstr with
Considerable Humility.
Berlin, Sept. 5. Emporor William's
reception of tbo Chlncso mission of ex
piation, headed by Prlnco Chun, whlcn
took placo yesterday at Potsdnm, was
marked with all tho severity consistent
with nn audience nominally friendly.
Tho Chlncso Impcrlnl envoy on enter
ing tho palaco was not accordod n sa
lute by tho Garde du Corps. Tho Em
poror received him seated. Tho but
tons and opulcttoa of His Majesty's
whlto uniform were enveloped In
crepe. Prlnco Chun bowed thrice on
entering and leaving. Emperor Willi
am romnlnod seated during tho read
ing of tho Chinese nddress. After
ward, however, ho relaxed his stern
demeanor and welcomed tho envoy
courteously, and subsequently accom
panied by his adjutant, ho cnllcd upon
Prlnco Chun at the Orangery. Lntor
In tho evening tho Emperor, Prlnco
Chun and a doicn members of tho ex
piatory mission took tea on an Island
in tho Havel.
Tho Emperor had evidently arranged
tho cntlro ceremony with n vlow of Im
pressing Prlnco Chun with tho feeling
that the ceremony meant cxplntlon
for n foul crime, and that only through
expiation had Prlnco Chun ncqulrcd j
tho right to be treatc with princely
Honor, not unm auer uio curcmuny
did the atmosphere change. Then tho
troops outside having saluted and the
band having played, Hussars escorted
Prlnco Chun back to tho Orangery.

pressed with the solemnity of tho oc
casion, an when summoned to tho
throne room, he showed visible env
harassment. He bowed repeatedly
while approaching the throne, and his
voice was agitated whilo he was read
lng the Imperial address. Tho entlro
manner of Emperor William was calcu
lated to impress Prince Chun with the
solemnity of tho ceremonlnl. Ho
spoke emphatically and seriously, em
phasizing particularly the word "civil
ized." The ceremonial lasted only ten min
utes. In tho meantime ten Chinese
dignitaries of the highest rank were
halted In the ante-room, remalnng per
fectly motionless and speechless,
awaiting Prlnco Chun's return with ev
ident anxiety. Prlnco Chun retired
backward from the throncroom, bow
ing proiusery.
