ROLES ARE ANGRY.
May Give Trouble to Teutons In- Near
Future,
LONDON, Feb. i8.—Germany sud-
denly has found herself involved in
a mass of difficulties on the eastern
front and in danger of loping all the
large benefits she was calmly prepar-
ing to realize from her peace with the
Uicraine and the Bolshevik .. with-
drawal of Russia from the war.
Poland, which so frequently in the
course of history has proved a thorn
in the side of military conquerors, is
threatening to constitute herself the
rock on, which the German hope of
peace and gainful expansion in the.
east may be shattered. Embittered
by the tearing off of a strip of their
territory to be given the Ukraine for
breaking away from the Bolsheviks
and signing a peace with the Central
Po}vers, the Poles are in what appears
to be virtually a state of revolt.
Even the very weapon which Ger-
many and Austria were at such pains
to forge in hope of deriving military
benefit—the Polish army—bids fair
to be turned against them:`
Reports in German; neer*spapers,
which express dismays` and alarm
over the Polish situation, indicate
that ;Polish legions, now an effective
military force, are on the side of the
prevalent Polish sentiment of bitter-
ness against the, Central Powers. The
situation has grown so serious that
the military are patrolling Warsaw
streets, where a general strike has
been ordered and the papers are
printed with black borders.
Austria-Hungary is particularly in-
volved in the difficulties because of
the prominent part which it was ex-
pected she would .play'in-future gov-
ernment' of Poland. Polish elements
and those sympathizing with them ii
the Dual Monarchy are up in arms
over the situation and further inter-
nal; troubles are threatened..

Austrian 'Foreign Minister Makes
Remarkable Adnuis'sion.
AMSTERDAM, Feb 18 —A de-
spatch received- here from Vienna
says that Count Czernin, the Austro-
Hun,garian Foreign Minister, replying
to an address of the Burgomaster,
who welcomed Czernin on his return
to the Austrian capital, said it was
the war` aim of their supreme war
lord and Emperor which had secured
for them a peace with the Ukraine.
This peace, he added, was in a double
sense of the greatest significance.
"What has happened. at Brest -
Litovsk,” Count Czernin, said, "is not
yet the end of the War, but it is the
beginning of the end. Not only poli-
tical diseases but political recoveries
are infectious, and peace will be so,
too.
"Moreover, the strangling block-
ade of the Entente has been broken
by the signing of the peace . with the
Ukraine with its bread .,The difficul-
ties ' of transport certainly still are
considerable, but all necessary pre-
parations have been made, and if con-
ditions do not alter, an improvement.
will take place."
Count Czernin added that he had
assurances that Austrian prisoners
of war would be released. Civil war
between . Russia and the. Ukraine
might cause difficulties, but he was
full of hope. In conclusion, Count
Czernin said:
"If ever confidence was justified, it
is to -day. • I am firmly convinced that
we have only to hold out'~ a little
longer and an honorable general
peace will be attained."

Swiss Engineer Tells of Two Mutinies
at Kiel.
GENEVA, Feb. 18.—AeSwiss engi-
neer employed for the past ten
months at the electrical works at
Kiel, and who has recently returned,
informs the Associated Press that the
Germans are making every effort to
conceal their submarine losses, espe-
cially from the navy, because of 1n-
creased difficulty in mustering crews.
He estimates the Germans lost 30 per
cent. of their submarines during the
time that he was at Kiel:
"I saw a score of submarines lined
up in the canal undergoing repairs,”
he said. "They had been,' hit by depth
bombs, which the Germans seem to
fear greatly:",
The"engineer added that there had
been two serious mutinies at Kiel dur-
ing 19:17.
Frederich. -von ' Payer, Imperial
Vice -Chancellor, is expected to make
announcement'before the next session
`of the `Reichstag of the Government's,
;future submarine policy, according to
the Frankfurter Zeitung.
Much significance is found ill the
fact that the Emperor has summoned
Admiral Eduard von Capelle Minister
of the Navy, and Admiral von Holt-
zendorff, head of the Naval Ges eral
Staff, to attend a conference being
held at the main headquarters.

night, but was apparently hopeful
that the decision may be reversed on
appeal. He said to"the guards:
"I am perfectly ,tranquil. ' I have a

One of these is supposed to be the.
