WOULD NOT CHEER THE KAISER.
Berlin, December 7.
A scene took place in the Reichstag yesterday owing to the fact that certain members belonging to the Socialist Party refused to cheer the Emperor as he entered the Chamber to deliver his speech at the opening ceremony. The ground of their refusal was that he recently informed the recruits in the army that it was their duty to fire on their fellow-citizens if they were ordered to do so. Other members roundly denounced the Socialist Party.
