meetings by persons prominent in
church and society.
Several women's societies have
taken up the problem with yigor
and are investigating reports that at
least 10000 young women throughout
Britain now face the problem of bear

among these in committee of the

The country faces an entirely new

Bryan Did Tell Dun1ba

Wilson Was Greatly Annoyed by the Incident, Which
Caused Berlin Foreign Office to Call Gerard's
Protest Merely Bluff


WASHINGTON. July 13.-what really
took place between William j. Bryan
when Secretary Of State and the Aus
trian Ambassador. DR.. Dumha. in and
after the conversation which confused
the consideration of the submarine is-
sue in Berlin. was told to THE SuN to-
day by one who knows all the facts.
II is understood here now that the
complications which arose out of this
talk between Mr.. Bryan and Ambassa-
dor Dumba was one of the incidents
which led up to Mr.. Bryans resigna-
ton. 1t is asserted that the President
was greatly annoyed at the incident
and at the steps which Mr.. Bryan was
compelled to take to correct the mis-
understanding.
That Mr.. Bryan did give the Aus
trian Ambassador to understand that
friendly answer was all that was
required OF Germany in response to
the Lusitania note of May Is was
positively asserted by THE SUNS in
formant. From this arose all the
trouble. Mr.. Bryan's recent public
statement in explanation OF the Incl
dent has not in the least altered the
understanding of those in "A position to

country and the newspapers were
printing articles suggestive of war OF
the severance IF diplomatic relations
with Germany. Ambassadors Bern
storff and Dumha were doing every
thing possible to relieve the situation
here.
AS Ambassador Dumba was not di-
rectly involved in the submarine issue
1t was decided that he should call on
! Mr.. Bryan and try to learn from him
just what was the attitude Of the Ad-
ministration. 1t was thought that pos
sibly the Ambassador might learn
something Of great value in advising
the Berlin Government how to meet
the demands of the United States.
Ambassador Dumba accordingly
called at the State Department anc
1 after considerable effort got Mr.. Bryar
! to discuss the question.
1t was in this conversation that Mr.
Bryan distinctly gave the AmbassaduI
