 10 MAKE REPORT Austria Will Comply, Thus Continuing Ambassador
 in Office. WILSON DECIDES TO
 PUNISH ARCHIBALD Determination to Prosecute Bearer of Dumba Letter Indicates Govern. ment Has Evidence Showing Vi.
 OIatiOn of Federal Law.

Washington, Sept, 13.-Dr. Dumba. the Austrian ambassador. has asked Baron von Burian, tae Austro-Hun- garian minister for foreign affairs to comply with the request of this government for his recall. Dr. Eumba asked that he be recalled "on leave of absence"
 The aT bassador who is now at Lenox. Mass, transmitted his usst through Count von Bernstorff. This was because pr. Dumba's only method of communication with Vienna is by German wireless through Der lin.
 The text of pr. Dumba's messag@ to Baron Burain was Is follows:
 q beg your excellency to recall me on leave of absence for a personal report.
 "DUMBA"
 Dr. Dumba's telegram, was in re- ply to ms sssage from the Austrian minister, asking him for a statement on the reqkuest of this government for his recall. IL is presumed Baron ven Burain's message was sent after the receipt of the cC'r munication from Secretary Lansing.
 Remains Ambassador.
 It is regarded as certain also that pr. Dumbas government will comply with his request in the form in which he has made it; namely, that he will be recalled on leave. This will dispose of the question whether Austria will send another ambassador in his stead. So long as an a'nbas- sador is away on "leave" he is still technically accredited tc' the post which he has occupied. While the af- fairs of the embassy in such a case are deft in he hands of charge d'af- fairs, there is no vacancy to which 10 appoint another ambassador.
 Developments of an important na- ture are expected in some Of the cases greNing out of the Dumba ln- cident l. was stated on high au- thority today that the president has decided to prosecute James F. d. Archibald, the bearer of the cores pondence duplicating pr. Dumba and others in a scheme to interfere With the manufacture of war munitions III this country.
 The determination to prosecute shows that tao administration is al ready in possession of evidence te show that Archibald is liable under federal laws.
 Under instructions from the white house, agents of the department o1 justice will meet Archibald when ht lands at New York.
