This information was made public

Kaiser at German headquarters in the
field Saturday morning. as he affixed
his signature to the abdication docu-
ment. according to today's Berlin dis
patches.
He signed his crown and throne
away in the presence of Crown
Prince Frederick Wilhelm and Field
Marshal Won Hindenburg.
The ex-monarch had clung to his
crown to the very last moment
steadfastly refusing the entreaties
of certain members of his entonr-
age. Hindenburg's attitude toward
the demands from home for the
Emperor's abdication is not yet
known. 1t is believed, however
that the field marshal had much to
do with the Kaiser's obstinate re-
fusal, since he is known to have
long feared the disappearance OF
the Kaiser from the throne would
utterly break what is left of the
German army morale.
Not until he was handed a tele-
gram from Philip Scheidemann, the
Moderate Socialist leader. reciting
the latest mutinies in the navy and
city garrisons did the Emperor yield
to the abdication demand.
Shortly after the fatal signature
he and the crown prince left Ger
man headquarters for a unknown
destination.
