VON REUTER MOBBED.
THE ZABERN COURT-MARTIAL. EXTRAORDINARY EVIDENCE. By Telegraph—Press Association—Copyriclit Berlin, January 7. There is much ill-feeling at Strasburg against Colonel Von Router (late commander of tho garrison at Zaborn, Alsace-Lorraine, who is now under trial by court-martial for his responsibility in connection with the collision which recently took place between tho civilians ami tho soldiers), and his fellow-officers. They escaped from an angry crowd, taking refuge in a tramcar. Colonel Von Router had to justify his roughness towards a hoy witness. No one, ho said, should pass a Prussian colonel without raising his cap. Horr Muellor, District Commissary at Zabem, in his cvidenco, said that Colonel Von Reutcr told him ho had resolved to provent people standing in tho streets, that tho troops would firo if tho people laughed, and that ho had also ordered machine-gnuns to bo held in readiness.
