Germany has suddenly found her
self tinvolved in n maze of difficulties

of losing all the large benefits she
was calmly preparing to realize from
her peace with the Ukraine and the
Bolsheviki withdrawal of Russia from

Poland, that land which so fire.

proved a thorn in the side of military
conquerors, is threteaing to constitute
herself the rock on which the Ger

Embittered by the taking of a strip Of
their territory to be given to the Uk-

Amsterdam, Feb. l6.--T'hc rcsig-
nation of the Polish cabinet and 9TH
er indications of dissatisfaction ir
Poland with the peace agreement be-
tween Ukraine and the Central pow
ers, providing for the anneXption of
Polish territory to Ukraine, are caus-
ing anger and alarm in section of
the German press. Many newspa'.
pers are attacking the Poles sharply.
The Cologne Gazette says the Cen
trail powers can not permit the Poles
ito tear the net we have just spun
in the east for the advantage of all
concerned"
The Post says:
"The Poles have declared a state
of hostilities. The results of this at.
titude must be shown to them; 9th.
erwise the German empire will lose
all its prestige in the east"
Poles Military Factor.
A Berlin dispatch TO the Polish
Zeitung says:
Reports in Warsaw papers that
Polish regiments of the Russian army
have offered to place themselves al
the disposition of the Warsaw gov
ernment are causing serious anxiety
in political circles in Germany. AT
the moment when the whole Polish
nation, in Poland. Austria and else
where, is opposing the peace with
Ukraine. the formation of a Polish
army is especially significant
The report thus mentioned seem to
suggest that the Poles have suddenly
appeared as an important military
factor. The Polish legion have stiff
fened their discipline and increased
their strength under General Mus
nicki, who offered their services to
the Polish regency council.
Governor Resigns.
The importance of the movement
in Poland is shown in a Warsaw dis
patch which appears in the Vossiche
Zeitung of Berlin. This dispatch
says that the feeling in Polish govern
mental circles became critical as soon
as the bare news of the Ukrainian
peace agreement was received.
When the details were divulged
the Austrian military governor, Count
Szeptycki, resigned as did his civil
associate, Madejeski and Councillor
Rosner representative of the Imperial
foreign minister at Warsaw. Then
the Polish government resigned. The
members of the regency council are
contemplating the same action. The
intention exists in leading Polish cir
