PARIS, March 24.—Abdication of the

his whole existence,
“He feels he is iwenaeed by three
enemies at home without counting
those abroad.
THREE HOME ENEMIES.
“The first Is the Crown Prince,
the real author of the war.
“The second Ls the junker Pan-
Gennanista. You cannot imagine the
smoldering hatred he lias for those
he believes to be thejnen who are
driving him into an abyss.
“The third are the people, not the
socialist party, but those who are
starving and who, he feels, are rising
iHtle by little against those who or-
ganized the war.”
