CHIEF WITNESSES LEAVE MUNICH. ■—t “HEALTH” REASONS ALLEGED. Paw* I ■«mlnfrir~ T«l*er»pl»— Oowrrigtl LONDON, March 60. The Munich correspondent of The •Times says: ‘‘A sensation was caused in Munich by the sudden departure fer Italy of Dr von Kahr, General von 1-ossow, and Herr von Seisser, the three principal witnesses in the Hitler trial. It is reported that they have gone for health reasons, but this is wholly disbelieved. on Friday the State Prosecutor denied that they bod any intention of quitting the country'. It is possible that they consider that Tuesday’s verdict may have an unhealthy effect on. their political future. Throughout the trial all- the accused strenuously declared thatf they were equally implicated, and were betrayed at a critical moment by their companions.” . „ , . The Gros Deutsche Zeitung (belonging to Herr Hitler) and another extreme Nationalist paper (the Deutsche Press®) were suppressed during the week for publishing violent articles tending to influence the verdict. Both appeared on the streets in the afternoon, and were seized by the police. —The Tonies *
