The Rejoicings Were Confined to the German Pdpulation -- Fortifications to Go Down so Place Can be Extended. : Posen, Sept. 3.--Emperor William arrived here last evening. The weath- er was fine. The citv was decorated in honor of the occasion. The only for- eign military representatives present were Russian officers. The other for- cigners including the United States and English guests, will not arrive un- til the military manoeuvres commence. The strects are already densely lined with troops. The civiliair' rejoicings are confined to the German popula- tion. The leading Poles neither decor- ated their ~ houses, nor appeared at the reception to his majesty. The bur- gomggter, who is a German, made the speech of welcome. He said he rejoiced that German thought, morality, and order had replaced the deepest Polish degradations. The emperor surprised many by re- plving in serious, conciliatory tones. He thanked the burgomaster for his timents, and said that he had just sioned a decree ordering the removal of fortifications around Posen, an act which would enable the citv to enlarge its boundaries. He urged that wider provision be made for dwellings for the poor. His majesty's speech created excellent The |en- £ Clarified Milk C of 'Phone 567. Brock & Bagot Sts.
