Another soldier of the 112th gave evidence that on the same day, between four and five o’clock, _some French wounded_ who happened to be on the sides of the road from Thiaville to Saint Benoit, _were killed by order of the commander of the 1st battalion_. About twenty German soldiers who were cross-examined admitted that this order had been given, but without giving details about the manner in which it had been carried out. Some prisoners, who did not know even in the field about the company order of the day, declared that they were subsequently informed of it by their comrades. Moreover, the German soldier Karl Johannes Kaltenochner (9th company of the regiment of Count Bülow of Tervuenwist), who deserted and took refuge in Holland, declared in the _Telegraaf_ of Amsterdam (_Temps_ of 3rd January, 1915) that when Turcos were made prisoners the German officers did not take the trouble to send them to any place behind the lines, _and gave orders to the soldiers to shoot them_. He quoted _Major Botwitz as having given orders to kill two Turco prisoners_. It is not, then, to be wondered at that the soldier who made this disclosure accompanied it with the declaration “that the German soldiers have become like wild animals and think only of killing and pillaging.” Finally, in the hospital at Nancy two German soldiers who were under treatment there made similar confessions. One of them, who had a wound in the stomach, confided to _Dr. Rohmer that it had been caused by a revolver-shot from his officer, because he declined to kill a wounded Frenchman_. The other, who was wounded in the back by a shot fired point-blank, declared to Dr. Weiss that, _in obedience to the order of an officer_, a soldier had fired on him to punish him for having carried several wounded Frenchmen into a village not far from the battlefield. FRENCH AND BELGIAN OFFICERS KILLED BY THE GERMANS The number of officers killed by Germans on the different battlefields to which the war has extended is certainly greater than one would think. The following are two attested instances— On the 9th August, at Ormael in Belgium, the Belgian Commandant Knapen, who was already wounded, was killed. On the 12th August, after the battle of Haelen in Belgium, the Germans killed, by a revolver-shot in the mouth, Commandant Van Daume, who had been seriously wounded.
