BUDAPEST. Hungary Sept p, via
London, II a. ma Vienna dispatch
is published here today saying it has
been learned in diplomatic circles at
the Austrian capital that the govern
ment will not await the arrival Of Or
Cons antin Dumba from the United
States before appointing his sue
cessor The new ambassador. II IS
stated, will be named at once.
The dispatch says that Kajetan
Mercy Won Kapos- Mere. former Aus
tro- Hungarian ambassador at Rome
has been selected for this place
Kajetan Mercy Won Kapos- Mere
served as Austro- Hungarian ambas-
sador at Rome from June of 1910 TO
August of last year. In March of this
year he returned to Rome as repre-
sentative of his government in the
unsuccessful negotiations with Italy
in regard to territorial concessions by
Austria. which preceded Italy's en-
trance into the war.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 21.-No In
quiries have been made by the Aus
trian foreign office as to the accepta-
bility of Kajetan Mercy Won Kapos-
mere as am nDaSSauOf TO tne united
States. In fact no inquiries have
been made regarding any successor
to DR.. Dumba. Budapest news dis
patches that the Austrian ambassa-
dor at Rome would be transferred to
Washington were the state depart
ments only information that sue
cessor to DR.. Dumba was being con-
sidered In Vienna.
Ambassador Penfeld's latest dis
patches indicate the Austrian gov
ernment has made no decision as yet
concerning the recall of DR.. Dumba.
The impression given in Mr., Pen
fields messages is that the Austrian
authorities are waiting to hear from
DIR. Dumba and it is considered pos
sible that on account of the Difficult
ties of wireless communication he
may of his own initiative leave the
United States on September 2S to
