CAUSES DECIDED STIR

London. Nov. 19.--Rumors that
William Hohenzollern may possibJ
return to Germany are supported
the Berlin Lokal AnzeigeTs hint "
he would not be refused an entry
that country, have created n q q
siderable stir here. They are z
tured by several of the NOR
newspapers as creating an uncef =
situation which is rendered :
doubtful by accounts of the ac : :
of German propagandists in ssI j
countries. ss
The fear mainly is that the er
emperor would sooner or latS e.
come the center OF reacv<A. Try
movement in Germany, when the
present revolutionary storm has
blown over and advocates of this
view consequently fear his return to
his former empire.
On the other hand, the fact of the
former ruler placing himself or being
placed in the hands of the new rul-
ers of Germany would be welcomed
in other quarters. These rulers. the
Morning Post argues. should be able
to execute Judgment upon him, and
in so doing would only be acting as
fitting instruments of justice.
Presence lntolerabIe.
There Is everywhere. however,
agreement in the idea that the ex-
emperor's presence in Holland is in
tolerable, and 1t Is insisted he must
somehow be made impotent to do
further mischief. Reports from Hol-
land show he is becoming daily more
unwelcome there, notwithstanding
vices from The Hague show that the
J)nfch QNcialictc roitarn tod in rlia
ment on Friday last their objections
to his presence and demanded that
he be deported.
A dispatch to the Daily Mail from
The Hague reports that the German
soldiers council in Antwerp on
Thursday last adopted a resolution
that the soldiers and workmen's
council in Berlin demand the extra
dition of the former emperor and the
former crown prince, as well as GER
tain generals. The resolution ex-
presses belief that the ex-ruler ex-
ercises too much influence in Hol-
land and forms the center Of counter |
revolutionary intrigue.
Plot to Trick Allies.
The Daily Express sees the possi- |
create a federation far exceeding in
strsasAh.yands s-rsso,arcas--ther former |
German empire. IN the course Of a |
long article this newspaper contends
that the former emperor is back of
Chancellor Ebert. former Chancellor !
of Baden and Field Mar
shal. Won Hindenburg, and 1t lays |
emphasis upon the fact that the en-
peror signed no formal abdication ,
and issued no valcdictory message.
A number of leading diplomats
and statesmen believe that some
thing is brewing in Germany in the
direction of plot to trap the allies,
The Express declares. The fact ap-
pears to indicate, it adds, the exist
ence of plan to foment social revo-
utions in Holland and Switzerland
md possibly Sweden through pro-
ierman agitators. 1t also is desired,
according to these indications, the j.
declares. to foment So
,ial revolution in allied countries,
provide for the eventual return of
he former emperor to Germany, the
of the old regime and the
of a greatly extended Ger
nan federation.
Another World War.
Such a federation, with William
at it's head, the Ex
,ress declares. would carry the seed
# another world war. 1t insists that
he former emperor must be seized
nd his activities prevented.
The Daily Chronicle in an editorial ]
makes a similar demand.
