CRUSHING REPLY
TO GERMAN ALLEGATIONS By Teleßraph—Press Association—Copyright (l(cc. March 10, 0.45 a.m.) London, March 9. The Foreign Office has sent a crushing reply to the German; "allegations of', twenty-six cases of post-war ill-treat-ment of Germans in Britain. The majority of tho cases are disproved 6erintim, and 6omo are trivial, including that of a school boy's eye being blackened at a- school. There is also a ludicrous complaint of a man and his wife being imprisoned for three months and treated as criminals. They actually were criminals, and were sentenced for a- grave moral offence. Most of the charges relate to riots following the Lusitania tragedy. The reply quotes tho Kaiser's message to Sir W. E. Goscben, lately Ambassador at Berlin, justifying the. Berlin mob's attack on the Embassy at the outbreak of war, and contrasts the care of the 107 of the Constantine's injured_ with the suppressing of tho Lnsitania disturbance, when 966 arrests were "mode. No German was seriously hurt. .
