ARCHIBALD EXPLAINS.
Says That Dumba's Letter Was Given
to Him Openly at Pier.

New York, Sept. 2l.--Jamcs r. j
Archibald. the American correspondent
who carried the official papers for DR.
Constantin T. Dumba, Austro- Hungarian
ambassador. issued a formal statement
here last night in which he denied he

In his letter to Secretary Lansing, DIR.
Dumba said his letter was rejected by
your censor" 1t was explained last
night that the dispatch YVES not sub
mitted to the navy censors in charge at
the Sayville wireless plant, but was
passed upon at the state department. A
part of the message was not sent, il
was said, as 1T was virtually the same
as the message sent by DR.. Dumba to
the Vienna minister OF foreign affairs,
and led to the request for his recall.

Hay Abundant; Potato Yield Small;
Plenty of Corn.

weeks in not having an excess, although

Obliged to draw water for domestic pur-
poses and some for stock, says Guy u.
Tiffany Of High street, county agent
from the United States department Of
agriculture.
The hay crop in the county has been
large. The first crop was well above
the average and harvested in excellent
condition and the second crop has also
been extraordinary, in some instances
nearly, If not, quite as large as the first
crop The actual amount Of first class
hay throughout the county is small be-
cause of excessive rain while harvest

The oat crop is large, although large
per cent is lodged badly. which makes
ii difficult to harvest. There was con-
siderable smut which will reduce the
yield somewhat.
The potato crop Is smaller than usual
Many farmers who usually grow sew
cral acres planted only enough for home
use this year. Potatoes are rotting
badly. Those who sprayed thoroughly
for the late blight are the winners. State
Commissioner OF Agriculture Il. s. Brig

bushels of Irish Cobblers to an acre. He

This has been an exceptionally good
fall for corn. The crop is large and

year for the first time Some dent corn |

Berlin, via London, Sept. 2l.-Official
reports from Austrian and German
headquarters and dispatches from the
Balkan capitals show that the long-ex-
Pected Teutonic campaign against Ser
bia has now begun.
Austrian and German artillery to-
day are bombarding various Serbian po-
sitions south of the river frontier be-
tween the mouths of the Drina and Nor
ava rivers. This action is undoubtedly
intended as a cover to the throwing of
forces across the river, and the seizure
of bridgehead, whence new steam
roller can be started. just where the
crossing will be attempted is unknown.
The shortest route to Bulgaria would
lead through the northeastern corner
of Serbia, where barely 80 miles OF Ser
bian territory intervenes between the
Bulgarian and Hungarian borders.
This is a difficult mountainous coun-
try. The absence of railroads and the
proximity of the Rumanian frontier,
however. speak in favor of the old route
of the Crusaders through the broad and
fertile Morava valley, through which
run roads and railway lines to Bull
garia and Turkey. This railroad touches
two points-Belgrade and Semendria--
both of which are under bombardment
to-day.

Germans and Austrians Ap-
parently Seek the Shortest
Route to Constantinople

While the Russian armies, retreating
from the Wilma region, are apparently
not definitely out of danger from the
German encircling movement, military
observers in the capitals of the entente
express confidence that the ultimate
escape of Gen, Ruzskys' forces is as
sured.
The German censor has passed dis
patch from Berlin which records the be-
ginning of the expected Teutonic drive
through Serbia. 1t is indicated that the
aim of the Austro-German armies will be
to force way toward Constantinople.
In view of the Commencement of the
Teutonic advance to the aid of the Turks
and to effect the cutting off of the land
route to the Ottoman capital, definite
announcement of Bulgaria's attitude,
asked by the entente allies in joint
note, is awaited with deep interest in the
allied capitals.
