CRISIS IN GERMANY.
GOVERNMENT RESIGNS. SILESIA THE CAUSE. LOSS OF WEALTH. By Telegraph.—Press Assn.—Copyright. Received. Oct. 23, 5.5 p.m. Berlin, Oct. 22. The Wirth Government has resigned. Received Oct. 24, 1250 a.m. Berlin, Oct. 23. In the course of a letter to the President submitting his resignation, Herr Wirth maintains he has done his utmost to fulfil the treaty obligations. It might have been expected that the occupation of the Ruhr district would have ceased just as a solution of the ■Silesian question was found, instead of which not only extensive tracts of Upper Silesia, but flourishing German towns, a great portion of her mineral wealth, and four-fifths of her factories, besides a large section of the German population, are to be torn from their German homeland. Herr Wirth is convinced that the possibilities of the fulfilment of the treaty obligations are materially reduced thereby, and a new situation has arisen; therefore he resigned.
