Secretary Lansing's Com

Government Pleasing.
ny ASSOCIATED PRESS.

Washington, Dec S.-Secretary
Lansing's communication to the Ger
man government giving the reasons
for his request that Captains Karl
Boy-ed and Franz Won Papen, be i'm
mediately recalled, probably will salts
fly Germany. At least this is said to
be the view of Count Won Bernstorff,
the German ambassador and likewise
officials here.
eminent will instruct the ambassador
to send the attaches away without
further dalay.
State department officials have been
informed that as Captain Boy-ed and
Captain Won Papen were personally
appointed by Emperor William and
that he personally probably will give
the orders for their withdrawal. It
is understood that officials considered
it probable that the Berlin foreign
office was prompted to ask what
caused the action of the United States
in declaring the attaches persona non
grata so that when report of the
incident is made to the emperor, 1t
may be complete in all details.
The belief prevailed in official cir
'cles that Ambassador Bernstorff
would not be able to inform Secre-
tary Lansing that the wishes of the
United States would be complied with
before Saturday at the earliest.
Any application for safe conducts
for Captain Boy-ed and Captain Won
Papen will be considered by the allied
governments solely as request of the
United Staets.
If the United States should take
the ground that it is responsible for
the safe return of the two officers to
Germany, the allied governments
would be disposed to refrain from in
terfering with them, though it is prob
able that they would insist that the
men give their parole not to serve ac-
lively during the war.

Washington, Dec. 8.-Disavowal of
the submarine attack upon the
Italian liner Ancona, assurance that
the act will not be repeated, pun
ishment of the submarine commander
and reparation for the American lives
lost is asked Of Austria Hungary in
the note cabled to Ambassador Pen
field to be given Baron Burian, the
Austrian foreign minister. The note
was started yesterday, but word of
the delivery was not received by the
state department tonight.
The document, desired as brief and
vigorous in tone and sent with the
full approval of President Wilson, it
is understood, makes particular
point of prompt assurances for the
future safety of American lives.
Austria has never Informed the
United States whetl1erafe Submarine
commanders were given instructions
similar to those Germany gave here
after the Lusitania. The situation
here is considered grave because of
the complication due to reports of at
tacks on American oil ships in the
Mediterranean, presumably by Aus
-trian submarines.
Action by the state department was
complete surprise, because It vas
thought Washington did not have
definite information on the sinking of
the .Ancona. It is believed now that
reports of definite nature reached
Secretary Lansing Monday night.

deny such intention.
