ON CHANCELLOR
Even Conservatives Open Bit
ter Fire on Hollweg in

ted to reach here although evidently
carefully selected for the absence Of

In full swing. Hindenburg is being
suggested as his successor. The Con-

that the other parties observe a po-
litical truce in the interests Of the
Fatherland, have adopted and pub
lished set OF resolutions sharply at
tacklng the Chancellor and consuming
the Government for weakness and
vacillatlon on the beace question and
in dealing with the strike agitation.
The resolutions express grave GRIEF
and concern at the steadily growing
influence OF the Socialists, whose
peace-making efforts are declared to
be leading Germany to the brink Of
ruin. Apparently this attack was
timed to coincide with the opening
OF the Reichstag, and 1t is significant
that the resolutions are indorsed by
the free Conservative wing. under
/ Baron Won Seydlitz. Baron Won Seyd-
/ litz has hitherto been far less OF an
extremist than Count Westharp and
Herr Won Heydebrand. leaders Of the
regular or Junker Conservatives.
Among the papers which are direct
ing their fire against the Chancellor
are the conservative organs, the
Krcuz Zeitung and the Deutsche
Tageszeitung. They accuse the Pre-
mier OF endangering the monarchy
and of sailing n course prescribed by
the Socialists.
