SOCIALISTS "ON TRACK
OF KAISER WILHELM"
CANADIAN HEADQUARTERS IN
FRANCE, Aug. 20.—Much evidence
of the lowering of German morale
continues to be discovered in captur
ed trenches and raided houses. A re
markable letter was found recently
which had been written to a Bavar
ian at the front three weeks ago.
which said in part:
“The German social democrats
have announced that if a single shot
is fired in August, revolution will fol
low. They are on the track of the
German kaiser too, and if it lasts
much longer it will be the end of
Prussia for Prussians and the En
glish are the masters. These two alone
are carrying on the war. The others
are merely in their hands.”
Olympia Strike Knds
OLYMPIA, Aug. 20.—The six hun
dred men who have been on strike
for several days in two wooden ship

to return to work this afternoon. All
the men will resume work. The scale
of wages will be determined at a gen
eral conference affecting all the coast
yeards.
