GERMANY'S TREATMENT OF BRITISH PRISONERS.

LORD KITCHENER'S DENUNCIATION.

Lopes, April 27. In the house of Lords, to-day, Lord Kitchener, dealing with the treatment of British prisoners in Germany, empinaised that he had always held German officers in respect, but he had been forced, with the greatest reluctance, to accept as incontestibly true the mal-treatment of British prisonera. The Germans had dagrantly viclated Articles 1V and VII of The Hague Convention. Our prisoners: had been stripped, mal-treated, and oven shot in cold blood. British wounded officers nl been wantonly insulted and struck. It was only, fair, however, to say that German hospitals were exempt from sach charges although there had been indications of a lamentable lack of medical skill.

There had been a slight improvement in the treatment of prisoners latterly, owing to the work of the American Ambassador. He hoped to obtain evidence of the reprisals against British officers, which also was a contravention of The Eagio Contention. Germany had abundantly proved her military skill and courage and could surely show standard of railitary honour which would gain the respect of other nations. Instead, she had steeped to acts which would Aurely stain indelibly her military history, vying, as they dil, with the bar barous savagery of the Dervishes. There was no soldier of any nationality not beartily ashamed of the alur braeght upon the profession of arms. The German only last week employed poisoncua gases when their attack might otherwise have failed. This, again, was a contravention of The Hague Convention,

(Chears.) It is not only our duty to these brave and unfortunato men, but the honour of the country and the plain dictates of humanity demand nothing! __Jose." (Laul cheere)—
