I'HE IMPOSSIBLE HAPPENED. Revolution in Germany, long awaited, hardly hoped for, is an es- tablished fact and today the northern districts are in the hands of a people who have at last visualized the Pots- dam gang in its true light, discredit- ing official and unofficial forecasts that the Fatherland would never rise against its rulers. Even in Berlin the sacred Mecca of Turopean Teutons, soldiers in re- volt are marching through the streets unchecked and in defiance of author- ity. The navy, of which the Kaiser proudly boasted that it constituted an uncrushed military force (how short the memory of be) the Hohenzollerns must is in the hands of revolu- tionaries and the red flag of anarchy snaps from the mastheads.
