Because Of NegOtia-

| WASN'T NGToN, Sept. 6.-Dr. Constan-
| tin Theodore Dumba, the Austro- Hun
: garian Ambassador to the United States,
/ will explain tomorrow to Secretary Of
/ State Lansing why he believed II proper
for him to formulate plans to call out
/ the Austro Hungarian workmen at the
Bethlehem Steel and other munition
] plants. The Ambassadors purposes
were brought to the attention OF this
Government through the publication OF
the letter addressed to Foreign Minis
ter Burian OF Austria Hungary.
| which was found by British authorities
on J, F.. j. Archibald. American VIZ
correspondent.
Secretary Lansing received from Am
bassador DumbS to-day telegram ask
ing for an interview tomorrow. Mr..
Lansing directed that reply be sent
granting the request.
Expect Data From London.
II is concluded. from the statements
attributed to the Ambassador at Lenox
last night, that he will bring a copy
OF the letter to present to Secretary
Lansing. in order that he may show
precisely what IL was he contemplated
doing The State Department. II is
said. will receive full information re-
garding the Archibald documents, as 1t
is understood the British Government
IL furnishing Ambassador Page with
memoranda outlining In full the Dumba
letter and other documents found in the
possession of Archibald.
The State Department was closed to-
day. but from what indications Of the
official viewpoint were obtainable the
conclusion was drawn that action In
The Dumba case will depend to con-
siderable extent upon the attitude of the
public. As IN number of other issues
IN foreign relations during the last thir-
teen months. the Administration is re-
luctant to do anything that might add
to the unpleasantness Of the situation
and is waiting TO see what the country
clfMsads.
1t is cepsiderrd probable that the
Government will take no action against
the Ambassador, FOR the present ut
least because OF pending negotiations
between Washington and Berlin. 1t is
feared that action against the repre-
sentative OF its ally might have a
prrjud.cial effect on the German Gov
crnment, making more dfhCult an ami
cable understanding and perhaps giving
Berlin an opportunity To- question the
good faith Of American neutrality.
n the opinion of many the Ambissa-
doris claim of justification only makes
the situation worse. The code of con-
duct for an Ambassador In this coun-
try, it is declared, together with n proper
respect for the rights Of American in
dustry and the citizens of the American
requires that no foreign
diplomat interfere in the slightest degree
with American manufactures and Amer

Sent After 4. =. Note.

Attention was called to-day To- the fact
that the Ambassadors letter was dated
four days after the publication of the
American note to his Government set
ting forth once more the view of the
United States that II is entirely legal
for American manufacturers to sell
arms and munitions tn tn" enemies Of
Austria and Germany. The point is
made that this fact makes the Am
bassddors course more subject to criti-
Cism.
Ever since it became known that the
documents taken from Archibald would
interest the nitcd States. Secretary
Lansing has regarded as confidential al
dispatches coming from Mr.. Page about
the ease Until complete Information
is received from London u will he i'm

thus far, the general opinion is that
there is nothing to cause action in his
