(LONDON TIMES SERVICE COPYRIGHT] POLISH NEWS. (Received This Day at 10.35. a.m.) LONDON, Oct. 12. It is reported that General Zelignowski’s action in resigning his command in the Polish army, was due to the fact that his troops were chiefly inhabitants of Vilna and Grodno districts. The Lithuanian Government confiscated the property of Lithuanians serving in the Polish army, designating them traitors. Zelignowski’s troops resented the armistice, giving Vilna to Lithuania, without consulting the inhabitants right of self determination. The League of Nations mission is at present .traversing Poland but the feelings of Poles towards the mission are not amiable. GENERAL RESIGNS. COPENHAGEN, Oct. 12. General Zolignowski resigned from the Polish army operating entirely on its own account. The first military re. presentative proposed that Vilna be a free city, but Zoligrowski rejected the proposal.
