BERLIN, May 30.-Rumors of an
imminent revolutionary outbreak here
continue. Reports are conflicting, some
saying that the Right has planned a
coup d'etat and others that the Left

the reports are regarded in conserva-
5ive circles as grossly exaggerated.
However, certain prominent Social
Democrats have been warned anony-

death list and that they should leave

left.

Officials of the Reichswehr in Ber-

however, take more serious view of

PARIS, May 3O-France is faced
with Presidential crisis which is ex-
pected to develop at an early date
Leading French politicians no longer
even pretend to believe that President
Deschanel is able to continue to act in
his official capacity.
The possibility that he must give up
his office has caused great commotion
in political circles because it is point
cd out that the constitution Of the
country docs not make provision for
d Vice President. In the event of NJ.
Deschanel's ultimate resignation, it is
not believed likely that Raymond
Poincare would resume the Office The
would undoubtedly be either Premier
MiIlerand or Leon Bourgeois. who is
now the presiding Officer of the league
Of nations. Al every Presidential cleo
ton in recent years NJ. Bourgeois was
suggested for the place, but the emf
nent Senator and Academician always
refused to run for the office. Every
probability at this time points to NJ.

the presidency,

not nave come at a more lnopportune
time, as this country, is in the midst
or negotlauons with Germany on
when not only the existence OF France
Duc also the future OF Europe depend.
Brain in Anaemic Condition
NJ. Deschanel is said to be suffering
from an acute anaemic condition Of
the brain, combined with a fatigued
state of the arteries, which has rem
dered him extremely impressionable
and liable to irritation from the
slightest cause. He became violently
angry. for instance, when Cabinet min
listers and physicians told him, after
his recent fall from moving railroad
tram, that he had to leave Paris for
rest. Finally he insisted that if he
went away -, must be to retreat
close TO the capitai.
Since the decision was made that NJ.
Deschanel leave Paris ne IS said to
