HEATH OF PATRIOTISM.
CONDITIONS IN GERMANY. LONDON. Mar. 6. A Daily Mail correspondent, who has iust returned from Germany, asserte that rich men and big firms are financing the Snartacists, while others are working for a declaration of national bankruptcy. The idea somehow gains ground that the Germans will lose less by disorder than by order. The total lack of patriotism is widely noticeable, and an indifference to Germany's fate. The only binding sentiment of the whole people is hatred for the Allies and a vague hope that Germany will sooner or later turn the tables. _ The Daily Express's correspondent in Berlin giving an instance of the growth Of Bolshevism, states that the munition workers at Spandau demand the confiscation of commercial and industrial undertaking, and of private fortunes above a fixed " amount, the annulment of public debts, the appointment of a revolutionary tribunal to arraign the Hohenzollerns, Ludendorff, Hindenburg, and Tirpitz. and also " the traitors to the revolution, including Ebert, Scheidemann, and Noskc.
