CIVIL WAR IN BERLIN
A SERIOUS AFFAIR
BLOODY STRIFE SPREADS EVEN
TO THE FASHIONABLE
DISTRICTS.
MACHINE GUNS IN WINDOWS
Commanders Rooms Are PIacorded
With Heavily Marked Maps.
Reds Have Asked
for Farley.

Berlin-Last week a person could
not get over the surprise that such a
sharp line of demarcation existed be-
tween that part of Berlin where the
revolution WAS raging and the business
and residential part where everything
was quiet and tranquil. The people in
the latter place went unconcernedly
about their own affairs while in the
Tiergarten the fashionable folk drove
about in smart traps in the avenues
and the children played under the
trees. In my ride today out to the
house where General Won Luettwitz,
commander of the government troops,
has his headquarters, a great change
was evident
Machine Guns in Position.
The generals headquarters are in al
beautiful mansion in Lietzenburger
Strasse, near INLAND Strasse. 1t is
abount half a mile southwest of the
Tiergarten and is the Sheridan road
district of Berlin. Government sol
diers with bands on their arms were
numerous in the Tiergaften and in
the fashionable streets machine guns
were in position. Berlin no longer
is two worlds, one like Evanston and
the other like Ypres in war time. All
Berlin bears evidence that civil war
is raging.
Two or three days ago a person
could drive in the Tiergarten and the
fashionable residence section and for
get all about the revolution. But even
in these sections this morning groups
of soldiers would stop automobiles and
examine the passports before permit
ting the passengers to proceed.
Block Filled With Soldiers.
The block in Lietzenburger Strasse.
where General Won Luetwittz has his
headquarters, lis filled with soldiers.
Machine gums stuck their noses eau
tiously out of windows commanding all
the approaches to the house.
Maps of Berlin hung on all the walls
and were heavily marked with MANY
colored lines, showing the position of
the government troops and the revolu-
tionists. The officers were shouting
hoarsely through half a dozen phones.
while aides, couriers and runners were
continually dashing in and out of the
door, giving a stiff military salute and
making reports.
General Won Luetwittz was smiling
ana calm. He said the government
troops were making satisfactory prog
ress and were in complete control of
three-fourths of Berlin. The AIevanda,
rlatz district was cleaned up he said:
also the southeast corner of Berlin. a,
district called Neukolin.
