ANGRY GERMANS
WILHELM’S POPULARITY DEMONSTRATION IN .BERLIN REPUBLICAN IRE RAMPANT. (By Telegraph—Press Assn.—Copyright.) (Rec. 7.5 p.m.) Berlin, June 14. One hundred and fifty thousand republicans angrily demonstrated outside the exKaiser’s palace in favour of the referendum. They carried a banner inscribed “Sunday will be the reckoning day with the deserter at Doorn.” Another was constructed of worthless bank notes inscribed, “Give these millions to William.” The crowd hissed when a speaker, pointing to the palace, shouted, “There lived the man who plunged Germany into ruin,” and cheered a poster showing the Hohenzollerns suspended on the gallows. The police drove off Monarchists attacking a platform on which was a coffin with the effigy of the ex-Kaiser in court robes and crown.—A. & N.Z.
