Hungary a note asking for dis
avowal of the submarine attack
upon tue Italian liner Ancona,
assurances that such an act will
not repeated. some degree of
punishment for the commander
of the submarine, and reparation
for American lives lost.
The communication started by
cable yesterday from the state
department to Ambassador Fred
erick G. Pentied at Vienna, who
was instructed to hand it TO the
Austro- Hungarian minister of
foreign affairs, Baron Burian.
Word of delivery of the note
had not been received by the
department tonight.
Friendly but firm terms, it is
said, characterized the document
which is understood to make a
point of prompt assurances for
the future safety of American
lives. Austria Hungary has never
informed the United States
whether the commanders of its,
submarines had been given in
stuctions similar 10 those which
the German gov9rnment gave to
its commanders after the Lusit-
