POLISH WAR.
COMPLICATED SITUATION. ANOTHER STATE JOINS IN;, By Telegntph.—Press Asm —Copyright Received July 15,11.45 p.*. London, July 14. The Warsaw correspondent of the Morning Post reports a three cornered situation between the Poles, Lithuanians, and Bolsheviks, complicated by the Lithuanian declaration that rather than have the Bolsheviks in Vilna it will itself send troops to capture Vilna from the Poles. Nevertheless, it is known that Lithuania, ever since its birth as a State, has been anxious to have Vilna as its capital, and once the Lithuanians come to Vilna the Poles will have to fight to recover the city. Out of a population of 200,000, a total of 60,0t)0 have fled from Vilna during the last forty-eight hours, remembering the experience of 1919, when the Bolsheviks occupied the city for four months. Those remaining are awaiting the next turn of the military situation with anxiety, wondering whether the Poles, Lithuanians, <» Bolsheviks will become their masters.—Aus.-N.Z. Cable Assn.
