LAW OF NATIONS
ta
Use of Civilians as Hostages and
for Screens Part of
Devilish System.
FIRST MAD£ USE OF IN 1870
At That Time It Was Condemned by
the Civilized World, but the Q wa
man Military Leadere Hava
Never Abandoned It.
Ample proof that the march of tbe
Oerman armies through Relginen
uas marked by massacres and enp
elties almost beyond belief is <?»**•
in a document made public by tha
committee on public in for’nation,
from which the following is taken:
The massacres In Belgium and
northern France were h part »f tbe
German system of frightfulm-sa. An­
other feature of this system was tbe
use of civilians as hostages and foe
screens.
In discussing the use of hostages the
German War Book (Krlegsbrauch Im
Landkriege) says:
‘‘By hostages are understood those
persons who, as security or ball for
the fulfillment of treaties, promises, or
other claims, are taken or detained by
the opposing state or Its army. Their
provision has been less uaunl In re­
cent wars, as a result of which some
professors of the law of nations have
wrongly decided that the taking of
hostages has dlaappean-d from the
practice of civilized nations. . , .
“A new application of ‘hostage right'
was practiced by the German staff In
the war of 1870, when It compelled
leading citizens from French towns
and villages to accompany trains and
locomotives in order to protect the
rnllway communications which wore
threatened by the people. Since the
lives of peaceable Inhabitants were,
without any fault on their part, there­
by exposed to grave danger, every
writer outside Germany has stigma­
tized this measure as contrary to the
law of nntlons and ns unjustified to­
wards the Inhabitants of the country."
Clunq to Frightfulness.
Although their deeds In the Frnneo-
Prusstan war hud been universally
condemned, as they themselves admit­
ted, the leaders did not Intend to
abandon such a useful measure of
frightfulness. In L'Tnterprete Mill-
tnlre the forms were provided for such
acts in the next war. Both In Belgium
and In France the Germans have con­
stantly used hostages. The evidence
Is contained In the proclamations of
the governing authorities and also In
the diaries of the German soldiers A
few examples from these will Illus­
trate the system which was employed.
A specimen of the arbitrariness and
cruelty Is furnished by the proclama­
tion of Major Dleckmnnn. from which
the following sections are presented •
‘‘After 9 n. m. on the 7th Septem­
ber. I will permit the houses In Reyn«-
Heusny. Grivegnee, arid Bols-de Brenx
to be Inhabited by the persona who
lived In them formerly, ns long aa
these persons are not forbidden to fre
quent those localities by official pro­
hibition.

mentioned permit will not bo ahu-ed

This Is an invitation to a aervtca tn
memory of tk) men and women from
one pariah, of whom all but two wera
killed by the Germuua In the luassacra
of August 5 and fl. 1914, Th» dosing
sentences are.
“Gentle Heart of Mary, be my
refuge.
“Our I.ady of Lourdes, pray for us.
' St. Joseph, pntrou of Belglau. pray
for us.
“St. Hardelln. patron of the parish,
pray for us.
“Salnte llnrbe. patroness of klmlly
death, pray for us."
After reading such ghastly accounts,
many of them written by German eye­
witnesses. and knowing that similar
tales wav* published widely in the
German newspapers. It Is difficult to
read with patience such word» as
these:
"The German army (In which I of
course Include the nnvy) 1» toduy the
greatest institute for moral education
In the world.”

Hostages' Lives Hung by Thread,
“In order to Insure sufficiently tbe

persons mentioned have been Seized
ns hostages by the commander of the
German army. These hostages will (
be shot If there Is the least disorder

“THE GENERAL COMMANDING.
“It«lms. 12th September. 1914."
Beneath this proclamation there
were posted the names of 81 hostages
and a statement that others had also
been seized as hostages. The Ilves of
all the»«- men depended In reality '
upon tin- Interpretation which the Ger­
man military authorities might give to
the elastic phrase, “the l«-ast disorder."
In the proclamation.
Hugh Gibson, In a Journal from out
Legation In Belgium, page 184. explains
what was likely to happen:
“Another thing Is. that on entering
a town, they hold the burgomaster, the
proettrenr du rol, and other authorities
ns hostages to Insure r«»o<l behavior by
th«- population. Of course, the hood­
lum class would Ilk» nothing bettet
than to see their natnral enemies, tbs
defenders of law and order. Ignomlnl-
rmsly shot, and they do not restrain
themselves a bit on account of ths
hostages."
