SEVEN CANDIDATES
THE GERMAN PRESIDENCY. SECOND BALLOT WILL BE NECESSARY. (By Electric Telegraph.—Copyright.) Received March 30, 9.35 a.m. BERLIN, March 29. Though millions of German men and women for the first time in their lives to-day put a cross on ballot papers for the president of the republic, nobody expects any of the seven candidates to obtain the absolute majority requisite for election, but the voting will give a clear idea whether the candidate elected at the second ballot on April 26 will be a Republican or a Monarchist. Even if a Monarchist candidate like the Vice-Chancellor, Herr Jarres, is elected on the 26th April, this will not mean the immediate restoration of the monarchy, but merely popular dissatisfaction at the Republican regime.—A. and N.Z. cable.
