GERMANY CRISIS GRAVEST OF THE WAR.
CAPELLE ACCUSES MICHAELIS OF DESERTION. 8.35 a.m.) TARIP, October 14. The "Matins Zurich correspondent says that the German crisis is the gravest since the war began. Dr. Michaelist and the pan-Germans find themselves pitted against the Reichstag majority, instead of merely the Independent Socialists. Admiral yon Capelle accuses Dr. Michaelis of shameful desertion after they had agreed to stand together in the whole affair.— (A. and N.Z. Cable.) The Danish paper "Stiffs Tidendc" says that the mutiny in the German navy began in February, when the dreadnought Bayern's crew, owing to unsatisfactory food, tied an officer to the anchor and let it into the sea. The majority of the mutineers were sent to the front, while the others were confined in the naval prison at Cologne.— (A. and N.Z. Cable.)
