Responsibili- ty For the Situation and Its Conssquences. London, May 4 (By the A. P.).—Dr. Stahmer, the German ambassador here, tonight presented 4 note to the foreign office protesting against the Polish <oup in Upper Silesia as an apparently con- certed effort to take the province by force and refusing all responsibility for the sit- uation and its consequences. The note has also been communicated to the other allied governments. It de- clares that by the action of irresponsible Polish agents and provocateurs a strike has been enginecred in Unper Siiesia through the whole mining and industrial areas, terrorizing the willing workers and preventing them from carrying out their tasks, while Poli*h sokols and armcd ;:Lmds cover the country as far as Rati- or. The organized destruction of railw: ahd bridges. it is asserted, shows a pre- arratiged plan for Polish insurrections. The inter-allied commission, it is added, has recognized that the German popula- tion has given no provocation. Late in the afternoon Dr. Sthamer pre. sented a second note stating that the s uation had become exfremely acute reciting details, according to which insurgents had seized the en and the e industrial T ing the districts of Presz, Rybi Ratibor and a portion of n officers and | Lublinitz, Gross-Strehlitz and Oppein. fighting at Rybnik two Italian thirteen men were Killed.

The insurgents are well- armed, many of them wearing Polish uni- forms. Railwavs, telephone lines and telegraph wires have been cut and many railway bridges blown up.
