SOCIALIST WARNING TO THE CHANCELLOR.
GOVERNMENT AT THE END OF ITS TETHER. (Received 11.45 a.m.) AMSTERDAM, October 11. In the course of the debate in the Reichstag, Or. Michaelis admitted the Socialist statement that sentences aggregating two hundred years' hard labour had been passed on sailors for Socialist propaganda in the navy. A Socialist member, Vogtherr, warned the Chancellor that hundreds of thousands of men and women, including men at the front, were behind the Socialist party, and the Chancellor's policy was bound to fail. Herr Haase said that the Government was at the end of its tether, and was trying to unite other parties to its support by waving the red flag. The "Rheini-ch Westphalischc Zeitung"' urges the criminal prosecution of the Socialist deputies.— (Reuter.)
