SITUATION IN FINLAND.

APPEAL TO THE KAISER

(Australian and N.Z. Cable Association.)

Copenhagen, March 1.

The Finnish Government has written to the Kaiser, asking him, as mightiest protector of Germanic culture and the Evangelic faith, if he will obtain security for the Finnish people who are striving for full liberty and peaceful development, by demanding at Brest Litovsk that the Russian troops be withdrawn from Finland, and that steps be taken to see that the measures are carried into effect at once. The White Guards commenced a determined offensive on Tammerfors on Tuesday.
