{By Associated Press)

Dissatisfied with the progress Of the
peace negotiations and Prussian cleo
toral reform, German workmen have
brought about serious strikes in Berlin
and other parts of the empire. The
German government has begun re-
pressive measures and has ordered the
arrest Of the six leaders OF the Inde-
pendent Socialist party, while at Kiel,
the leaders Of the obdurate workmen
have been sent into the army.
In Berlin and its suburbs $4,000
workers were not at their tasks Mon
day, seriously hampering the electric
works and airplane factories about the
capital
Strikes tn the great manufacturing
district along the Rhine and IN West
phalia also are reported The steel
making district OF Essen has been af-
fected and at Kiel workers in torpedo
factories and in dockyards have been
out since Friday.
Meetings Under Ban.
Meetings in the industrial centers
have been prohibited. The strike agi-
tation has been fostered by the inde-
pendent socialists and not by trade
unions. In addition to ordering the
arrest OF the independent SOCIALIST
leaders. the authorities are said TO
have imprisoned Adolph Hoffman,
editor Of Vorwaerts, the socialist organ
and Independent socialist leader in the
Prussian diet.
The strike movement is said to be
directed against the delay in passing
the Prussian reform bill and the an
nexationist propaganda conducted by
the fatherland party, which has assaiL
ed bitterly the conduct Of the German
ernissaries at Brest-Ltovsk. General
ly, the strikes broke out Monday. the
day after the emperor's birthday.
In Finland, the revolutionists have
set up a government OF their own.
Late reports are to the effect
that the fighting has lessened in
intensity with the revolutionists in
control in the south and the govern
ment forces victorious in the north.
Swedish subjects in Finland, are en-
dangered by the revolt and one report
is to the effect that Swedish troops al
ready have entered Finland TO aid the
movement and the senate.
