FOR GERMANS ABROAD
Prince Max Appeals to Them Not
to Lose Faith.
Chancellor Says People Have Won
Big Victory Over Their Belief
in Right of Might.

London, Nov. 11.-Prince Maximil-
ian, just before rendering his resigna-
ton as German imperial chancellor,
issued an appeal, ito Germans
abroad" in which he said:
SIN these difficult days the hearts
of many among you, my fellow coun-
trymen, who outside the frontier of
the German fatherland are surround
ed by manifestations of malicious joy
and hatred, will be heavy. Do not
despair Of the German people.
"Our soldiers have fought to the
last moment as heroically as any
army has ever done. The homeland
has shown unprecedented strength Ia
suffering and endurance.
''In the fifth year, abandoned by it's
allies, the German people could no
longer wage war against the increas-
ingly superior forces. The victory for
which many had hoped has not been
granted to us. But the German peo-
pie has won still greater victory over
itself and it's belief in the right of
might.
From this victory we shall draw
new strength for the hard time which
faces us and on which you also can
build"

Emperor RenounCeS the German
Throne and Crown Prince
Will Follow Suit.
REGENCY WILL RRSULT
Chancellor Macmillan Decides to Re-
main in Office Until Matters Con-
nected With the Abdcation
Have Been Adjusted.

London, Nov. 1.-THE German en-
peror and king of Prussia, William Won
HOhenzollern, has decided to renounce
the throne. This declaration is made
in a decree issued at Berlin by the
imperial chancellor, Prince Macmillan
of Baden.
The German crown prince will also
renounce the throne and a regency
will be set up.
Prince Macmillan will remain in
Office until matters connected with the
abdication of the emperor are set
tied, and Friedrich Ebert, vice presi-
dent Of the social democratic party,
will replace him as chancellor during
the regency.
Last Original Foe Ruler.
With the passing from power of
William Hohenzollern, all the heads
Of the governments of the Central
powers when they entered the war,
have died or lost their thrones. En-
peror Francis Joseph and the Sultan
of Turkey died before their countries
agreed to Allied armistice terms, and
Ferdinand of Bulgaria abdicated to be
succeeded by his son, who gave up the
throne when his people rose against
him.
The other European emperor, at the
beginning of the war, Nicholas RO-
manoff, was deposed in March, 1917,
and murdered in July, 1918.
Thirty years and almost five months
after he assembled the imperial throne,
William Hohenzollern, his armies de-
feated in the field, forced to sue for
armistice terms, and the German peo-
pie in revolt, gives up his power.
Nation Torn by Revolution.
He came into authority with his
country at the threshold of an era of
peace and material progress; he leaves
it torn by revolution and suffering
from the hardships and sacrifices of
more than four years of war-virtu-
ally ruined.
Prince Macmillan, the imperial
chancellor, will remain in Office until
questions connected with the abdica-
ton of the emperor are settled.
For the regency, Friedrich Ebert, a
socialist and president of the main
committee of the Reichstag, will be
chancellor.
Ernest August, Duke of Brunswick,
son-in-laW of the emperor, also has
abdicated and renowned the rights of
his heir
