of the recent alleged proposal by

the British Ambassador, at the

first secretary of the British em- j
bassy at St. Petersburg. The two
diplomats spent about an hour;

Warsaw, Feb. 0. ? Government
officials are greatly puzled over
the continued spread <>f the strike
in Poland even after the arrests

j is learned the whole strike is en
gineered by secret committee rep
resenting entire Polish people.

not appear in public, but are in
constant communication with all
i branches, thus enabled to order
strikes wherever they care to.
