OF STRIKE
 BEING FELT TODAY
Lack of Mails From U. s. Causes
 LOndonerS to Grumble

 London, Feb. 1S.-The dock strik,
 which was declared Saturday, affect
 ing 120.0oo men in ports of tn,
 United Kingdom, was expected tt
 reach full effectiveness today, official.
 of the Transport and General Work
 CTS Union stated.
 No hope is based on action of tn,
 blue ticket union," new and hith.
 erto unrecognized rival of the trans.
 port workers union, which has rec
 commended a ''stay-in strike" under which men would continue on duty but go slow on piece work and refuse to do overtime. This action is viewed not as em. bodying any altruistic motive toward the public but as aimed at injuring the transport union and enforcing rec ployers, who have hitherto ignored the organizations existence. There is a demand in some quarters that this attitude should be met by the employers immediately locking out the blues.
 At present there is nothing to con firm reports that Premier Macdonald or tho council of the trades union congress is likely to intervene today, but the public is turning its hopes on them. The newspapers assure their readers that the government, foresocing the present outcome Of the quarrel between dockers and their employers which has been in prog rcss for some weeks, made careful plans to insure supply of foodstnffs,
 They also assure the public that stocks Of imported food in tho conn. try are so abundant that nothing will justify increases in price by distrib- utors.
 The workers arc held in many quarters 10 have weakened their cause by angry impatiencc, and their re- fusal of arbitration on the demand for a shilling more increase than the employers are willing to concedc re- ceiyes considerable condemnation.
 The strike is already threatening to affect the newspapers through stoppagc of newsprint supplies. The Daily Chronicle today prints small Ter paper than usual. attributing it ts this cause.
 Tho immediate effect of the strike. So far as London is concerned, is a lack of mails from the United States. In the city offices much grimbling Sas heard at the considerable incon- yenience caused by the nnn-dcliyery ot the mails. held up at Plymouth on tne liner America and Nieuw Amster- dam.
 The Smithfeid market was almost bare Of supplies this morning because tic meat porters refused to handle meat taken from storage, and retail merchants from the suburbs who as- sembled early had great difficulty in getting enough for their immediate needs.
 Mails 10 and from Amsrica are likely to be tied up at the doeks on this side for the duratioa Of the strike unless some emergency ar- rangement for handling them is made, il Was indicated at the general post office. Postal officials said there existed stipulation providing that post office employees must not load or unioad mail bags on ships or tenders. thtse operations being left to the dock workers. Five thousand bags of mail nrr stacked in tenders at Plymouth but 4 few yards from the railway tracks leading to London.

CENTRAL GOVT. AND
 BAVARIANS AGREE
Von Khar'S Resignation Follows
 Reconciliation
By The Associated Press,

By The Associated Press.
 Munich, Bavaria, Feb. 1s.-Dr. NoI Kahr, the Basarian Military Dictator has resigned and General yon Lossow commander of the Bayarian Reich swehr, has rendered his resignation.
 Berlin, Feb. lS.-A reconciliation has been effected between the German Central government here and the Ba- varian government, and this has been followed by the resignation of Dr. Non kahr, the Bavarian Military Die tator.
 The trial of General Ludendorff and Adolf Hitler for their part in the na- tionalistic "Putsch' in Bavaria last November was to have begun in Munich today. Hitler who has been organizer and leader Of the Bavarian Fascist forces, was wounded during the fighting, and it has been said an operation might prevent his appear anee for trial. Hitler's supporters, moreover, have been threatening an- other "Putsch," which they declared would prevent the trial of their lead CT in any event, and it has been re- ported that all parties were making efforts to put tho trial off indefinitely or abandon 1t. because of the political bitterness which fl would be certain to stir up anew.
 For some time there have been rn- mors that Dr. Won kahr would resign as Dictator. He has been constantly under guard because of threats of ai- tack on the part of ruthless elements among those opposed to bringing Lu- dendorff and Hitler 10 trial.
 The relations between Bavaria and the German Central government have been strained for some time, the slt- uation becoming acute when the Ber- lin government put radical measures in force last September to deal with risings in both nationalist ic and communistic quarters. Bavaria resisted the measures taken by Ber- lin and declared martial law on her own account. Dr. Won kahr, nation- alist. a former premier. being ap- pointed General commissioner of

EVANGELIST SEES
 END OF THE WORLD
Natures Forces Working Toward That End, Says E. L. Cardey

The forces of nature are undergo ing changes at the present time which forecast the end of the world, is the belief expressed by Evangelist F. l..
 Cardey, in an address on behalf of
 the Seventh Day Adventists at the Lyeeum theater yesterday.
 There was 9 large crowd present.
 Mrs. Trouchet rendered several solos. Among other things MT. Cardey said "Earthquakes are on the rapid
 increase. The past ten years have
 been greater than any previous cen tury. How many people have realiz- ed that before this last summer and fall, the most destructive earthquake in the history of the world. the great est famine in the history of the world, the greatest pestilenee in the history of the world, had all occurred within less than ten years? Yet this is all true. When a great earthshock like the one in Japan comes, many people who should know better. say that this is another evidence of the earth cool ing off and adjusting itself, and that such disturbances will become less and ifsss ff' iaAia ht iiiht Ati' thsh thousand years of the Christian era recorded earthquakes occurred at the rate of about four year. From 1850 to 1885 five thousand such dis turbances were recorded; and in 1910 over ten thousand took place in our world. Last year the record was as great. What is the meaning of this?
 The disciples asked Jesus for q sign Of his coming and the end of the world, as recorded in Matt. a4. He answered there shall be famines, and pestiienees. and earthquakes, in di- vers places.' Jesus was right. He foresaw that the old earth would wear out, as it were, and earthquakes would increase rapidly before its end.
 What shall we say Of this great in- crease of these disasters? It is a sign that the day of judgment is rapidly nearing. This is only one sign of the soon coming of that great day, but the sign is so forceful that every one should take warning. The prophet Of Patmos, when writing In Revelation declared that every city of every na- tion would be thrown down by mighty earthquake before the second coming Of Christ. We believe the evi- dnnce is sufficient 10 cause us to be- lieve that the world is facing such a disaster. and then the coming of the Christ who shall reign supreme"
 Mir. Cardey's second lecture will be given in the Lyceum theater next Sunday afternoon at 2 o'clock and the subject will be World Peace or World War. Which Are We Coming To?" This lecture will also De illustrated with pictures.

.STRESEMANN PUTS
 BLAME ON FRENCH
Says They Are Causing Trouble
 in Occupied Zones
By Tho Associated Press.

By Tho Associated Press.
 l Berlin, Feb. iS.=--Ainister Strese, mann. speaking before German peoples party meeting yesterday, de nonnced the injustice with which ht said the Germans in the occupied ter ritory had been treated, and referred particularly to the recent events in the Bayarian palatinat.
 The separatist movement had not arisen in any way from the will of the German people, he declared. The very fact that such events could oc- cur at all was proof of the machina- tions of General De Metz, commander of the French occupationary forces on the right bank of the Rhine.
 Insofar as stabilization of condi- tions for reconstruction was concern cd. nothing stood in the way except the separation, almost accomplished by France, of the occupied territories.
 Tho negotiations with France, he went on, were based on the conditions in the occupied territories and the memoranda which has been exchang- ed referred 10 re-establishment of freedom of customs and communica-  tions. and all other questions affect ing the establishment of German soyerciEnity in German territory.
 In the negotiations with the expert rcparation committees Dr. Strese- mann saw the first streak of silver on the sombre horizon. The victorious states themselves, he said. were be- ginning to doubht whether or not the path they were troading was the right one.
 He referred 10 the findings Of the Washington institute Of economies, which he recalled assessed Germany's total payments in cash and kind at 25 billion gold marks but he empha- sized that most of the direct deliy- cries were in kind.
