Sunday, September 30, 1923. Trouble over the Rhineland.

The Black Reichswehr carried out, unsuccessfully, the hastily thrown together The Küstrin Putsch, under the leadership of German officer Bruno Ernst Buchrucker.  Buchrucker would fail but survive, going on to serve the Third Reich in an unnoticed capacity, which he also survived, dying in 1966.

On the same day, rioting occured in Düsseldorf in Germany at a speech by Rhenish separatist Josef Friedrich Matthes.  He'd die at Dachau in 1943.

Grim work continued on in Central Wyoming.
