Entente Powers Will Per enlptorily Refuse to En

DESIGNED TO LULU
 ALLIES ACTIVITY
With AdyersDrirs Delaying prepara- tious in Hope of Peace. Germany Would Strengthen Position for
 Next Year, Think Diplomats.
(By C. F. Bertilli)

Paris, Oct. 2S.-Information has reached me that Germany. convinced that the Forthcoming winter campaign is unlik ply to yield military q cision in her favor. is again making an In direct peace proposal to the allies. ! can also add that the whole quad ruple entente will per mptorily re fuse to entertain if.
 PrlGecding on the cautious assump- ton that Germany's overtures ar de signed to lull the allies activities and conc al preparations for a new drive with her armies, Great Britain, France 9nd Russia are hurriedly re- constructing their internal political organization with the sole object of a still more vigorous prosecution of bhe war.
 France is in the midst of this pro- cess. M. Briand stated tonight tha, l the announcement of the composition of the new cabinet will bye made to-
 morrow. The new ministry will be the most remarkable mixture of youth and experience ever assembled in any French cabinet. >3 The cabinets sole purpose will be to push the battles of the trenches. and above all, to silencat peace talk at least till Germany is forced back to her own frontiers.

AUSTRIA FLAlLY DENIES RIGHT OF
 !. s. SELL ARMS Charges That in Spirit of Law, American Attitude
 Is Unneutral. JUSTIFIES DUMBA
 IN HIS PLOTTING Though No Direct Reference Is Made by Austria to Bomb Plots, Indirect ly Action of Late Ambassador
 Is Defended.

Washington, oct. 2S.--Austria to- day flatly denied the right of the United states to export munitions to the allies, in diplomatic note re ceived at the state department. The communication contends that the old rules Of international law cannot be applied to the extraordinary condi- tions of the present.
 While not assailing the abstract right of the United States 10 furnish munitions to belligerents, ,ohe note de eclares for a new and more liberal consideration of the code existing be- tween nations.
 Officials who discussed the note de- clared that by more than indirection Austria has sustained the activities in the United States of Ambassador Dumba, who, at the request Of the president. has ceased to represent Austria in this country. There is in the note, however, no reference 10 the charge made by the United States that Dr. Dumba was seeking to inter fere with the munitions plants them selves, and also with an internal policy of this country.
 The main purposo Of the Aus rla1 government as disclosed in the nofe, is to protest against the abnormal in- crease of munition plants here. Basel on the proof that there. is such ab- normal increase, Austria argues that as German ports and Austrian ports gre closed. the increase is solely fer the benefit of the enemies of Ger many and Austria. Holding this view. the Austrian foreign office charges that the continuance of support by the United States to the export of the enormous supplies is in the spirit of the law essentially unneutral.
 It is not known what reply thc state department will make to this latter charge, but it is understood from the statements obtained that the United States proposes, in its answer to stand on the letter of international law. It is claimed this government cannot now reverse the policy it formulated a year ago, dafining the commercial rights of it's citizens. Al that time the state department de clared there was no limit to exports even of contraband of war.
