NEW YORK, June 27.-The German
ex-crown princes reported flight back
home cannot lead to serious mill
tarist uprising in Germany, because
the allies under the terms of the arm:
istice, have deprived the Germans OF
most of their war equipment
The ex-crown prince, who Is by ma
ture dramatic and irresponsible IN his
Judgments, is the type of German who
would be made excitable by the sink
ing of the German warships in Scapa
Flow
1t is probable that this has 1nflu-
enced him to making spectacular
play for putting himself temporarily
in the limelight. The ex-crown princes
intimate friends in Germany all be-
long to the arrogant militarist caste.
They have certainly been in communl-
cation with him during the last sever
al months, playing upon his vanity by
suggestions about the return of the
Hohenzollerns to the German throne.
The Hohenzollern heir, by going
back to Germany at this tragic mo
ment, may consider he improves his
chance of being called to the imperial
title if the German republic eventual
Ily is overthrown. There is, however,
another influence that unquestionably
has played a part in causing Fried
rich Wilhelm to respond to the call of
home sickness"
He has always been an admirer OF
Berlin's night gaiety. His long In
ternment in small Dutch village
would be a natural inducement to him
to make dash for his former haunts
at home on the first favorable oppor-
tunity

PARIS. June 27--With every prepa-
Rt,on completed for signing the
eace treaty in Versailles at three
clock tomorrow afternoon, the allied
elegates today turned their attention
the internal situation in Germany.

kcave of the former crown prince

brded as possibly significant IN
ew of the last ditch fight made by
e German government against un'
bnditional acceptance of the terms.
Germany, it was believed in some
uarters, is ON the verge Of counter
yolution and possibly two. While
e present governments attention is
rected toward the radical revoits In
erlin and Hamburg, it was thought
e royalists in the eastern territories
light seize the opportunity to at
mpt restoration of the empire. Sue
ss of either possible movement is
)ubted here, but 1t was admitted
lat further internal disorder in Ger
hny at this time would prove EN-
Irrassing to the allies. What part
e former crown prince might play
royalist counter revolution was
e basis for considerable speculation.
Although known to be unpopular
len with the majority of the mill
fists, it was pointed out that he,
the Hohenzollern heir, is the most
glble candidate for the throne in
event an attempt Is made to re-
re the empire.
The new German delegation which
