If his government refuses to recall
Dumba. this country viii eject him by
summarily handing him his passports.
This was stated on high authority to-
day. The administration Is prepared to
back up its demand to any necessary ex-
tent.
If the administration is forced to dis
miss Dumba. it was regarded certain
that American Ambassador Penheld. at
Vienna, would likewise receive his pass
ports, ending diplomatic relations be-
tween the two countries
There was good ground for belief that
the Austrian government will back up
Dumba and force more serious issue
than merely the elimination Of its
envoy.
The administration confidently hopes
and believes. however, that Vienna will
comply with the request to recall Am
bassador Dumba. To this end steps have
been taken to secure for him a safe con-
duct from the allies, to his native coun-
try.
Unless Austria Hungary wishes TO pro
woke more serious dispute with the
United States than che mere personality
of its ambassador, it was conceded that
Vienna would direct his return home.
Opinion today as to the likeliost
upshot Of the matter was that AUS
trla-Hungary will recall Dumba but
not Immediately appoint his success
sor. This would leave the counsellor
OF the Austrian embassy. Baron Erich
Zwiedinek. in charge
Prompt action Is expected from
Vienna. The request for Dumhas re-
tirement is already in the Austrian
Foreign Offices hands. An answer

ability that Austria-Hungary will re-
spond quickly 10 prevent a more
grievous rupture, was looked or
Today the State Department had
passports prepared for DR.. Dumba, to

Dumba will not visit the state De-

The news OF the administration re-
quest regarding Dumba created a
furore in diplomatic circles today.
The possibility was suggested that
similar issue would be raised with
Berlin, on account Of the use by one
Of the officials Of the Kaiser's en-
bassy Of the services Of the American
correspondent, James F. j. Archibald,
as a messenger for official documents.

10000 At State
FAIRSET RECORD
FOR biggest DAY
Visitors From Many States
Join in Happy But Swell
tering Throng
thrills TONIGHT WHEN
Speeding AUTOS Clash

Following the greatest day in its
history yesterday, the Delaware State
Fair entered upon its closing hours
today and will close with a blaze Of
glory tonight. Horse racing, horse
show and dog show will continue to
interest thousands during the day, but
the greatest thrill will come tonight
when the automobile races are staged.
The Horse Show started in this morn
ing, in order that all the classes NAV
be judged by nightfall A big night"
is expected for the wind-up with con-
fetti and fireworks after doing the
midway and the automobile races.
Because of the possibility Of acci-
dents in the automobile races. the
Fair Association it is understood, de-
clines to assume any responsibility
for the races tonight. They will be
entirely under the jurisdiction Of
some Wilmington automobile enthusi-
asts, but Fair management will es-
tablish danger zones about the turns,
and policemen will keep those spaces
clear. The greatest danger of cars
skidding or colliding while speeding
about the track is at the turns. Per-
sons attending the Fair are requested
to heed the instructions of policemen
in avoiding the danger zones.
Six events will be run tonight. They
include time trials for tIe mile by
different autoists, an obstacle race, a
pursuit race, a five-mile race, ten-mile
race and fifteen mile race.
One of the prizes will be a silver
cup offered by THE EVENING
JOURNAL
Many visitors hocked to the Fair
this morning, and large attendance
is expected this afternoon for the
horse show and horse races.
Big Thursday Throng.
Big Thursday of the seventeenth
annual Fair went down in the annals
of the history of Wilmington as being
one Of the things that has placed VIII
mington on the map. In fact from
Daylight until late last night, il seem
ed as if all roads led TO Wilmington,
and as a result seldom did such a
gathering of people visit this city.
Without a sign Of disorder and no acci-
dents of q serious nature, the thous-
ands who attended the Fair grounds
enjoyed themselves TO the utmost.
While the official attendance was
not announced, it was estimated that
10000 persons gathered within the
grounds during the day. and last
night about 1000 persons spent the
7 early hours there, many of whom re-
mained from the afternoon. II re-
quired several hours work on the part
of Officials to count the silver halt

turnstiles during the day and the
quarters at night. While these men
counted out the silver, four policemen
stood by and when trip after trip was
made to local banks with the coin

from the reception hall. where clothes
which were hanging on the hall-racl1s
were searched. No attempt was made
by the thieves to go to the second
floor of the home.
The robbers apparently left by the
rear door Of the Booker home as this
door was open this morning and the
key to it wasmissing.
While Mr. Booker did not awaken
in time to prevent his own home from
being robbed, he did prevent the
thieves from rifiing the home of R

the Booker home the thieves went to
the Megginson home, where they
pulled the screen from the pantry

this caused the robbers to make a

up and made an investigation. The

Trolley CO. MAKES
Record IN TRAFFIC
Huge Fair Crowds Are Car
ried Without Inconven-

TRANSFER SYSTEM
PROVES POPULAR

With a car schedule Of from one
half to three-quarters of a minute
headway and keeping ,thirty-hve cars
moving. tINouga the rRfh TO and nom
th@Fa4 the Wilmington aud Philadel-
-phia 1raoSon Company yesterday
made a great record for itself and at
the same time demonstrated to the
public the advantage resulting from
the consolidation of the two former
trolley lines.
The service to and from the Fair
all week has been one of the promi-
nent improvements incident to this
years Fair in comparison with for
mer years.
The bulk Of the travel was handled
on the belt line whereby the cars
start from the Pennsylvania Railroad
station, run up Market, out Eighth
to the Fair entrance, where the pas
ffngers are discharged right at the
ate; then down Woodlawn avenue
to Seventh, in Seventh to Market and
down Market to the Pennsylvania
Railroad depot again. .
Transfers TO and from the other
lines of the company made it possible
for one to travel from any point in
the city to the Fair for one fare. This
was a radical improvement over the
former arrangements, whereby the
transfer of passengers was limited to
either the Peoples or the Traction
Company's lines as the case might be.
In former years the public was much
confused and delayed on account of the
conditions at the Fair grounds. where
each company stored as many cars as
possible. Prior to the people leaving the
grounds, there was also the need OF
turning the trolley pole, reversing the
seats, adjusting the tenders, etc. But
with the cars now turning down Wood.

all this delay and confusion was avoided
The company has made a signal rec.

crowds.
