Austrians, in Denial,

Washington, Nov. 1.-THE Austro-
Hungarian Embassy issued the follow
ing statement
"Ex- Consul Dr. Goericar, formerly at
San Francisco, has been on leave OF
absence since the time of the outbreak
of the war, and has been temporarily
attached for time TO the Austro-
hungarian Consulate General in Ber-

and disappeared. Later on IL was
learned that he had gone TO Italy and
was staying in Rome. from where he
rendered his resignation, thereby pre-
venting his dismissal

tanned that he was in close relation

the United States TO use his knowl-
edge of the centres of Slavic immigra-
ton coming from the monarchy in tho
service of the Pan-Slavic propaganda
and with the intent Of disseminating
disloyalty among our immigrants
against their country of birth.
"The Austro- Hungarian Embassy has
been Informed that quite number of
southern Slavs from the monarchy have
been enlisted by the agents of the Al
lies, and have left this country to fight
against the Austro- Hungarian army.
IT is very probable that DR.. Goricar's
subversive activity contributed 10 the
very regrettable acts Of treason. which,
certainly without changing the outcome
Of the war, will be Of the gravest con
sequence for those who may be made
prisoners Of war.
"The Austro- Hungarian Embassy
was informed several months ago OF
DR.. Goricar's agi,atory propaganda
carried on in this country, but il has
refrained until now from taking coun-
ter measures. being aware of the dis
grace brought about by the fact that
a former consular officer had broken in
such a manner the faith and allegiance
to his fatherland.

to the press, which contain the strong
