TEUTON ALARM.

OVER ALLIED VICTORIES

INTERNAL IRRITATION

REVOLUTION ON THE CARDS

(Received 7.40 p.m.) BERNE, Sept. 26. Travellers declare that war-wear-ness in Germany is very noticeable and a social upheaval is well within the bounds of possibility. Popular irritation against the dynasty and the general staff is increasing daily, and further military reverses may precipitate a revolution. The recent strike at Essen and the violent demonstrations at Kiel and other ports against the departure of submarines are typical symptoms of the trouble.—A. and N.Z. A Dutch authority who has just returned from Germany says that the food difficulties are great, but not yet so great as to lead to a catastrophe.—Times. The German censorship is permitting the press to freely discuss the gravity of the situation in Palestine and Macedonia. The newspapers express great alarm at the sensational turn affairs have taken. j The "Frankfurter Zeitung" consoles its readers with an assurance that the Seigfried Line ought to prevent; any such break through on the West front, adding the somewhat significant qualification, "if the trenches are occupied, the batteries manned, and the men convinced of the necessity of holding out."— Reuter.
