A SUPPRESSED MANIFESTO. BY GERMAN SOCIALISTS. (Received This Day at 9.25 a.m.) PARIS, Juno 24. The “Humanite” publishes a suppressed manifesto by German Independent Socialists, vigorously protesting against the prolongation of the war. It declares that the peace imposed in tho East by the German sword, has provoked Jntense rancour and danger. The German forces will soon enter a fresh struggle for domination of the world. A policy of re-action at home is growing similarly to the foreign policy in violence. This is proved by the refusal of the solemnly promised right of equal suffrage. The Prussians, moreover, are already unbearable. The conditions of life are aggravated, and the fact that peace was gained by violence in the east has not given the Germans tho bread that was so often promised.
