LOST ON ARABIC.
ANY OBLIGATION is DENIED

knowledeed Even if Submarine
Commander Was Mistaken
in Supposed Attack.

Berlin. = Germany's note to the
United States bearing on the sinking
of the White Star Line steamer Ara
bic, on Aug. 10, which was communi-
Gated to the American ambassador,
James w. Gerard, for transmission to
Washington, is in the form OF a men,
orandum under date of Sept. 7, the
text of which follows:
ION Aug. 10 a German submarine
stopped the English steamer Dunsley,
about 16 nautical miles south OF Kin
sale, and was on the point of sinking
tho prize by gunfire after the crew
had left the vessel. At this moment
the commander saw a large steamer
making directly toward him. This
steamer, as developed later, was the
Arabic. She was recognized as an
enemy vessel, Is she did not fly any
flag and did not bear any neutral
markings.
when she approached she altered
her original course, but then again
pointed directly toward the subma-
rine. From this the commander be-
came convinced that the steamer had
the intention Of attacking and ram
ming him.
"In order to anticipate this attack
he gave orders for the submarine to
dive and fired a torpedo at the steam
er. After firing he convinced himself
that the people on board were being
rescued in fifteen boats.
According to his instructions the
commander was not allowed to attack
the Arabic without warning and with
out saving the lives unless the ship
attempted to escape or offered resist
ance. He was forced, however, 10
conclude from the attendant circun.'
stances that the Arabic planned a VIC
lent attack on the submarine.
This conclusion is all the more OBJ.
vious as he had been fred upon at a
great distance in the Irish Sea on Aug
14-that Is, a few days before-by a
large passenger steamer apparently
belonging to the British Royal Mail
Steam Packet Company, which he had
neither attacked TO- stopped.
1.-THE German government most
deeply regrets that lives were lost
through the action Of the commander
1t particularly expresses this regret
to the government Of the United
States on account of the death Of
American citizens.
"The German government is unable
however, to acknowledge any obliga
ton to grant indemnity in the matter
even If the commander should have
been mistaken as to the aggressive in
tention Of the Arabic.
IF 1t should prove to be the case
that it is impossible for the German
and American governments to reach
harmonious opinion on this point, thu
German government would be prepar
ed to submit the difference of opinion
as being a question of internationa
law to The Hague tribunal for arbitra
ton, pursuant to article 38 of TIL
Hague convention for the pacific set
Element of international disputes.
Elm so doing it assumes that as
matter of course the arbitral decision
shall not be admitted to have the i'm
portance of a general decision on tn,
permissibility or the unde
international law of German subma
rine warfare"

THE AUSTRIAN AMBASSADOR TO

WAS FOMENTING STRIKES
State Department Finds That He In
terfered With Internal Affairs and
Sent Secret Messages by An
American Citizen.

Washington.-The United States has
asked for the recall Of DR.. Constantin
Theodore Dumba, Austrian ambassa-
dor to this country.
Secretary of State Lansing on Sept.
Q gave out the following statement:
THE department has instructed Am.
bassador Penneld at Vienna to deliver
10 the minister for foreign affairs the
following note:
"'Mr. Constantin Dumba, the Aus.
tro- Hungarian ambassador at Washing
ton, has admitted that he proposed
to his government plans to insti'
gate strikes In American manu-
featuring plants engaged in the produc.
ton of munitions of war. The informa-
ton reached this government through
a Copy of a letter Of the ambassador
to his government. The bearer was an
American citizen named Archibald,
who was travelling under an American
passport. The Ambassador has admit.
ted that he employed Archibald to bear
official dispatches from him to his gov
eminent.
"'By reason of the admitted purpose
and intent Of Mr.. Dumba to conspire
TO cripple legitimate industries OF the
people Of the United States and to In,
terrupt their legitimate trade, and by
reason of the fragrant violation OF dip
lomatic %propriety in employing an
American citizen, protected by an
American passport, as a secret bearer
OF official dispatches through the lines
OF the enemy of Austria Hungary, the
president directs me to inform your ex'
cellency that Mr.. Dumba Is no longer
acceptable to the government OF the
United States as the ambassador OF his
imperial majesty at Washington.
"Believing that the imperial and
royal government will realize that the
government of the United States has
no alternative but to request the recall
Of Mr.. Dumba, on account OF his i'm
proper conduct, the government OF the
United States expresses its deep regret
that this course has become necessary
and assures the imperial and roya
government that 1t sincerely desires t.
continue the cordial and friendly rela
tions which exist between the United
States and Austria.Hungary.'
1t is believed there Is little possibil
ity that the Austrian government Will
decline to comply with the request TO
the recall of Ambassador Dumba.
has been held that It rests with the gov
eminent to which n representatives !
accredited to say whether he is accep'
able and that n mere suggestion tha
he is not satisfactory Is sufficient fo
his recall Cases have occurred, nov
ever. in American history where othe
n%ationalities declined to accede to tn
request of the United States for tn
recall OF their representative. In sue
cases the United States followed reg
lar diplomatic procedure and refuse
to recognize the representatives
whom objection had been taken.
