On the other hand, "Freheit" and the "Tafjeblatt" declare that a revolution is imminent. The "Tageblatt" ' adds that a list hasbren drawn up of Democratic and Socialist leaders and Jewish notables who aro to bo slaughtered . _ ' "Vonvaerts'' states that the signal for the revolution will come from the east.
