BERLIN MASSACRE. LIBUT MARLOH'S TRIAL
A POLITICAL SCANDAL.
The evidence in the Marloh trial' was brought to a close on December 8th, in Berlin. The case was developed to a political scandal of the first rank. Interest is longer concentrated on the fate of the defendant, but on that of his'official; superiors and on the principles involved" by their action. It has been shown that the spirit and methods of Prussian mili tarism have been taken over unchanged. by the Republican Government. Indeed, one might go farther. No exposure under the old régimo, revealed.no ruthless. a disregard for human life, änd so super- cilious a contempt for moral and statue tory lawn as the massacre of the men of the Naval Division. Compared with: the tragedy in the Französischer Strass Zaborn was a harmless joke. '. The 'ques- | tion now at issue is whether the now Administration is going to pargo itself of these relics of an evil past, and whether it can do so without sacrificing - Noska He is now the visible incorporation of the old spirit and tradition, but, at the same time, he is the man whose courage, enorgy, and resolution have stood between the revolutionary Government and the aby's9.
Noske's personal reputation has suf- fored comparatively little through the actual trial. Apart from his drastic decrees, on which the acts of his sub ordinates were based, in responsibility for the slaughter was traced to him. One incident, in which be was indirectly impression: On the ovening of March 11th, the commandant of the Berlin Klawunde reported to him that thirty sailors had been anjustly shot, On re colving this report, the Minister of De fence said nothing, and behaved as if be were not interested." Colonel Rein hard, in whose defence and support Noske has committed himself deeply has not es- caped so lightly. He admitted sending orders that Marloh should act "" rütb lealy," and saying to one of his mes
eagera that the use of name justified long ago" At the same time, he denied that he had explicity ordered the execution of 150 men, though he could pot any positively that he had made no mention of this number. Evidence was also given that Reinhard said to Marloh, after the massacra, "I cover my officers, but for the present you must not say it was I who gave you orden."
Wud
AN ORDER TRANSFORMID.'* The chief onus in the whole affair fell on Captain von Kessel, the nephew of the well-known general of the same name, who for years was aide-de-camp to the Kaiser, and afterwards commander-in- chief in the province of Brandenburg, This young officer admitted that he had transformed the general rigorous instruc tions received from Reinhard into a de finite order that Marloh should shoot:160 of the prisoners. True, he now declarve that he toned down rather than aggravat ed the purport of his instructions from Reinhard but the whole brend of the evidence shows that little credence is to be attached to his exculpatory statemente, It was be who played the chief part in the revision and rewriting of the Marloh report, and it was be who bullied and pestered the defendant into, absconding, Statements which he made to witnesses Were very characteristic. He protested to be acting in this matter for Ebert and Noake. He said that influence had bear brought to bear on the Medizinal Kolle gium, the highest medical' authority in the country, to induce it to pronounce Masion insans In the presence of wit nesses he told Marloh that the latter would forfeit the esteem of his comrades and of all patriotic Germans if he per sisted in telling the truth. To one wit nesa he used "the words, "In this affair we must tell lies, and I do not see why we should not tell them on oath." He said that Marloh was really responsible for all the trouble, because he had not shot every one of his 300 prisoners, and on one occasion he suggested the theft of all the official documente in the case. The chief witnesses as to Kossel's in credible behaviour" wers Fld Potsdam pastor, called Rump, and General von Oertzen, who, on Marloh's behalf, con- ducted the negotiations as to his proposed flight and the provision to be made for his future. Bump was already a con' apicuous figure in public life here., Ee is a prominent reactionary agitator, and was one of the central actors in the chauvinistic demonstration organised by Ludendorf at Potsdam a wock or two LgD.
