Wrath Growing Against Germany.

On the credit side of the account is
the rising. tide Of Indignation against
Germany in Scandinavia and Spain.
The anti-German faction in Sweden
has been powerfully reinforced by the
sinking of three Swedish grain ships
in violation of their own agreement
to respect the safety of the vessels.
Spain is still awaiting reply to her
protest over the sinking of the Span
ish steamer Patriocio, also destroyed
while under a German guarantee and
the tone of the Spanish press is in
creasingly prcmptory in its demand
that Germany be compelled to respect
Spanish rights
What effect the course of events is
having on the German people remains
practically sealed book. The little
news that trickles across the frontier
offer scant basis for even speculation.
Apparently the war of the pan-Ger-
mans and junkers on Chancellor Won
Bethmann-Hollweg is going on, but
there is nothing to indicate what eff
feet it is having on the emperor. The
issue will presumably remain in abey-
ance until the reichstag reconvenes on
July 5.

New York. April 26.-Vivid and dramatic
pictures of the accomplishment of the
Russian revolution are given In copies
of Russion newspapers which have just
reached New York. Brief and bare OF
details though they are. these glimpses
of the revolt are as clear-cut as cinema
scenes
One of the most interesting descriptions
Is that given of the last night on the i'm
perial train, as 1t was shunted back and
forth from station TO station, while the
few remaining adherents of the Gar
fogged their wits TO devise some scheme
which might give them another chance
to regain control. That night of March
Is was perhaps the most momentous In
Russian history. With the Gar. accord
ing to the Petrograd newspapers, were
the old Baron Fredericks. minister OF the
court; Admiral Milofr. and Gen. Voyekoff.
Driven desperate by their situation. they
all drank heavily, the stories say. and
Miloff was heard at least to suggest that
the Gar should drink, too.

Another picture furnished by Mr.. Sacks

one OF the best-known reactionary clergy
men OF Petrograd. In demanding Bishop
1sidore's resignation, the Procurator ask

the funeral Of Gregory Raspuntln?"

a moments silence he went on: But

He was a mere drunkard and sensual

The Bishop's retort did not save him
his place.
Then there was the dialogue reported
as having occurred on March ls, between
the President of the Duma, NJ V. Rod
