MAY ASK GERMANS RECALL
Letters Written by Capt. Won Papen
and Carried by Archibald Anglers
Officials at Washington.

Washington.-As the result Of the
receipt and publication of the CORE
spondence taken from James F. ]. Ar
| chibald by British secret service agents
the preponderance of opinion in official
circles now is that this government
will proceed decisively against the fol-
lowing persons:
Capt. Franz Won Papen, military at
tache OF the German embassy, who has
referred to the American people as
"idiotic yankees"
Alexander Won Nuber, Austrian con-
sui general at New York, who submit
ted to DIR. Constantin Theodor Dumba,
the Austrian ambassador, the plan for
fomenting strikes in munitions plants
in the United States.
William Warm, editor Of the Hunga-
rian paper Szabadsag, who prepared
the memorandum outlining the plan
for interference with the munitions
plants, which was approved by Am
bassador Dumba and was the basis for
the request for his recall.
1t can be stated on good authority
that this government will either ask
for the recall of Capt. Won Papen or
hand him his passports; that it will
cancel the exequatur Of Consul Gem
eral Won Nuber, and will refer the
case of Warm to the proper depart
ment for such legal action as may
fit his offense.
The case of Ambassador Dumba him
self again became one of serious con-
sideration for the government, princi-
pally because the correspondence re-
vealed he had made comment on the
president, referring to his "self-willed'
temperament, and he discussed the
presidenet's relations to congress.
In this connection the important dis
covery has been made that Ambassa-
dor Dumba had asked the state depart
ment to arrange for his safe passage
home, and that his request has been
held up by the administration for rea-
sons not fully revealed.
Officials say, however, that this gov
eminent will not interest itself to get
a safe conduct for Ambassador Dumba
until Austria has made direct and
categorical response to the request for
his recall,

ciers, sign articles of agreement con-

Not the least of these details, 1t has
developed, is the size of the loan. The
foreign representatives, it was said,
have been told that the maximum
amount they can get is 500,$00O, 600.
Sir Edward Holden, representing the
joint stock banks of London, which
stand high among the financial bull
warks of Briton, was reported to have
stood firmly on the ground that the
commissions need was for more than
a half billion dollars and that the max
imum interest rate would not exceed
five per cent.
1t has been reported that the COM
mission had sought to raise billion
dollars on joint Anglo-French govern
ment notes, without collateral, bear
ing interest at four and one-half per
cent, and that it receded from its po-
sition only in the face of repeated as
surances that it would fail in its mis-
sion unless 1t could offer better terms.
A five per cent rate then was offered,
it was said, with the positive assur-
ance that this rate would not be e1-
ceeded.
The demand was still for billion
dollars. Within the past week an
American banker said, the commission
had been compelled to recede from
this position also.

CLAIMS He is INNOCENT
Archibald, the American Who Carried
Dumba's Letters, Says He Did
Not Know Their Contents.

New York.-James f. Archibald,
the American correspondent who car
ried a message from DR.. Constantin
Dumba, Hungarian ambassador
at Washington, addressed to the
Austrian foreign minister, which led
to a request from the United States
for the ambassadors recall, issued a
statement here denying that he had
connived to break the neutrality laws
of the United States or was an official
dispatch bearer.
The letter was seized by British au-
thorities when Archibald was inter-
cepted at Falmouth.
On his return here aboard the
steamship Rotterdam, Archibald de-
clined to discuss the affair until he
had consulted his lawyer and had ac-
quainted himself, as he explained,

ON THE BRINK OF WAR
Bulgarian Government ls Dissatisfied
With Servia's Reply-Army Mob
liking and Troops Moving.

Sofia, Observation-Disclosures apparent
ly is on the brink of war, The people
generally believe that hostilities are
imminent. The military authorities
have taken possession of the railways
and ordinary traffic has been SUI
pended.
Diplomatic representatives OF the en-
tente powers generally recognize that
their cause is lost one, and that Bull
garia is manifesting clearly tendency
toward the central powers. This is
due to the dissatisfaction Of the gov
eminent at Servia's reply in the nego-
tiations for territorial concessions in
Macedonia and at the conduct OF
Greece In this connection.
None of the allies representatives
cherishes longer the hope that Bull
garia can be prevented from Joining
with Germany, Austria and Turkey.
In government circles the statement
is made that all the military measures
taken are of a preventive nature, de-
signed solely to guard against circum
stances which might threaten Bull
garia's position in the present situa'
ton, which is developing with extraor.
binary rapidity. These measures con-
sist in turning over the railroads to
the military authorities and suspend
ing ordinary traffic.
Reports from many parts of Bull
garia tell of enthusiastic demonstra-
tons in favor of the government. This
is considered symptomatic of public
feeling.
The formal cession by Turkey of the
territory along the Dedeaghatch rail-
road has been delayed by the action OF
the entente powers In notifying Bull
garia that acceptance would be re-
garded as an unfriendly act.
SO far there has been no general
Bulgarian mobilization, but the troops
are leaving their stations throughout
the country.
The capital and the country are
quiet. Public opinion, which was some
what divided few days ago, is now
stiffening in support of Premier Rad
oslavoff. There are indications that
within few days comparative una
nimity concerning the governments
action will prevail.

OBREGON MAY BE RULER
Rumor Is That Carranza's General
May Be Selected As Mexico's Pro-
vslonal President.

Washington.-The possibility that
Gen. Alvaro Obregon may be recog'
nized as the provisional president of
Mexico has given new turn to the
Mexican situation, which, in the opin-
ION of some officials, may provide the
means for the final settlement of the
problem.
Some weight is given to the sugges-
tion that the plan may be what Car
rama has In mind. because It would
leave him free to become candidate
for the regular term. Inasmuch as
che provisional president cannot be a
candidate to succeed himself, there
there has been some speculation as to
what Carranza intends to do, it being
assumed that he would rather be pres
ident for full term than for only a
few months.
Obregon is the chief military reli-
ance Of Carranza, and 1t is no secret
that the administration would prefer
him to Carranza. Some weeks ago,
however, when there was talk of a
break between the two, Obregon an.
nounced that under no circumstances
would he accept the provisional presi'
dency. 1t is reported, however that
he would not decline If he were Of
fered the candidacy for the regular
term, which will be provided for i'm.
mediately after the provisional gov.
eminent is organized.
Carranza agents here discredit the
report. They say there is no doubt
of the loyalty Of Obregon, and that
Villa followers are circulating the re-
port to embarrass Carranza and pre-
vent recognition by the United States
and the Latin-American republics.

PROTEST TO GREAT BRITAIN
Washington VIII Bring to Head the
Grievances Of American Importers
over British Order Of Council.

Washington.-It has been announc
ed by the state department that this
government has undertaken to bring
to head" the grievances Of thousands
OF American importers whose goods In
neutral ports of Europe are withheld
from shipment here by the British or.
der In council.
This is the first time that the state
department has admitted 1t regards
the question as one for the two govern
ments. Heretofore It has been main
tanned by the state department that
the issue was one for the importers
themselves with the British board OF
trade and with any other British In
stitution from which they could get
relief. Severe pressure, however, was
put on the state department by ca
blegram from London to the effect that
the agents of the importers there re-
garded the case as hopeless, notwith-
standing the various announcements
by the British embassy at Washing
ton to the effect that importers might
file affidavits and applications for re-
lief, which in turn were to run the
gauntlet of the authorities in Great
Britain
1t was also learned that the state
department proposes to put stop to
the private negotiations of the agents
of some importers who have succeed
ed in getting goods through while the
vast majority of importers have been
unable to obtain satisfaction either
from the British embassy here or the
state department itself.

The model demonstration farm at

in fine shape, and will present many
instructive object lessons for the farm
ers of Mississippi who visit Jackson
between Oct. 25 and 30.
The farm is under the personal SUI
pervision of r. S. Wilson, State agent
Of the United States department of
agriculture. Strictly speaking, 1t Is
not farm in miniature, of the sort
usually shown at State fair, where
the perspective is so small that the
farmer is apt to lose sight of the most
important object lessons. More than
an acre of ground has been broken and
placed in actual cultivation.
The feature which the United States
department desires to especially illus
trate at the State fair this year is the
value of legumes as soil builders.
