From the New York Times,July 17th,1916....

KAISER WILHELM SHOT DEAD IN BERLIN

Two basic questions to consider after you read that headline:
1)What could have brought it about?
2)What happens after the Kaiser meets his untimely demise?
 
Assuming an as-OTL WWI:

1. Britain, France, and Russia celebrate.
2. Germany apprehends and/or kills the assasin (possibly blaming the allies).
3. Kaiser Wilhelm III is sworn in.
