Herr Maximilian Harden in his paper “Zukunft” recently said: — “We must confess that the German people are for the moment suffering great want.” [Harden’s paper, according to a recent cablegram, has been suppressed by the German authorities.! A Dutchman who has returned from Germany informs the Amsterdam correspondent of the “Morning Post” that the German people, owing to the miserable conditions in which they are living, desire to see peace established as soon as possible. About a fortnight ago many women, he said, gathered together at Essen as a body of troops were leaving for the front and smashed the windows of the Burgomaster’s houses Several thousand women gathered in front of the Imperial Castle in Berlin, and demanded the return of their husbands from the front, and improvement in the supply of provisions.
