There are signs of revived activity in the Rhineland on the part of the Separatists, and it is thought that they will try to take advantage of any outbreak of distress in the occupied ter- ritory to proclaim a separate republic, reckoning on the passive support of the French and hoping for a rally to their standard of the increasingly restivé and strained population.
