AUSTRO- HUNGARY ASKED
TO RECALL AMBASSADOR
Washington Requests Recall of DR..
Dumba Because of Inciting
Strikes in This Country.

Observation-Disclosures Penfield
at Vienna was instructed by cable
Thursday to inform the Austro-Hun
garian government that Dr. Constan-
tin Dumba no longer is acceptable as
an envoy to the United States and to
ask for his recall.
Secretary Lansing formally an
nounced the action. 1t was the an
swer Of the American government to
Dr. Dumbas explanation of his inter
cepted letter to Vienna outlining plans
for handicapping plants in this coun,
try making war supplies for the allies.
Ambassador Peufield was instructed
by cable Thursday to deliver the fol
lowing note to the foreign office:
Mr.. Constantin Dumba, the Austro-
Hungarian ambassador at Washington,
has admitted that he proposed to his
government plans to instigate strikes
in American manufacturing plants en-
gagged in the production of munitions
of war The information reached this
government through a copy of a letter
Of the ambassador to his government.
The bearer was an American citizen
named Archibald, who was travelling
under an American passport. The am
bassador has admitted that he employ
ed Archibald to bear official dis
patches from him to~his government.
by reason of the admitted purpose
and intent of Mr.. Dumba to conspire
to cripple legitimate trade and by rea-
son of the fragrant violation of diplo-
matte proprety in employing an
American citizen protected by an
American passport as a secret bearer
Of official dispatches through the lines
Of the enemy of Austria-Hungary, the
president directs me to inform your
eXcellency that Mr.. Dumba is no long
er acceptable to the government of the
United States as the ambassador Of
his imperial majesty at Washington
Believing that the imperial and
royal government will realize that the
government of the United States has
no alternative but to request the re-
call of Mr.. Dumba on account of shis
improper conduct, the government of
the United States expresses its deep
regret that this course has become
necessary and assures the imperial
and royal government that it sincere
ly desires to continue the cordial and
friendly relations which exist between
the United States and Austria-Hun-
gary"

BUMPER CROPS ARE
PROMISED This YEAR
Department of Agriculture Issues
Forecast on Agents Predictions.
New Yield Records Likely.
>~upyrlghtl

Observation-Disclosures crops this
year, with a half-dozen new produc-
ton records, now seem assured. Bas-
ing predictions on a canvass made
Sept. l by its thousands of agents
throughout the United States, the de-
partment Of agriculture Thursday is
sued forecasts showing the prospects
of practically all the principal farm
crops, except potatoes and rice, i'm
proved during August
The wheat crop is placed at 981, OOO,-
600 bushels, 90,000,0O0 more than last
years record crop. Wet weather has
damaged winter wheat and delayed
thrashing. In Kansas not more than
half the crop has been thrashed Ad-
ditional inquiries by crop reporters
this month, however, resulted in no
change in the August prediction Of
659,O0O,000 bushels of winter wheat.
AS result of favorable conditions,
the spring wheat prediction was in
creased 100000 bushels to a total of
322,000,000 bushels. When the final
canvass is made the entire wheat pre-
diction probably will reach 1000, OOO,-
600 bushels.
Corn prediction prospects increased
67,0OO,000 bushels during August the
forecast now being 2,985,OOO bushels.
Although that exceeds last years crop
by more than 100000 bushels, it
falls 139,000,000 bushels short of the
record crop of 1912.
Oats may reach a record, the Sep
TENDER forecast being 1,4OS,O00 bush
els, which is 267OOO,OOO bushels more
than was harvested last year, but TO-.
100000 bushels below the record crop
of 1912.
The condition of white potatoes took
decided drop during August, result
ing in q decrease Of 25,000,00O bushels
in the estimates of production. The
September forecast is 100000, 900
bushels, 100000 below the 1912 rec.
ord crop.
Indications point to record crops of
barley, rye, sweet potatoes, tobacco,
rice and hay. The apple and peach
crops also are far above the average
in production

GERMANY MAKES AN OFFICIAL
STATEMENT IN ARABIC CASE
Declines to Pay United States Indem-
nifty, But Expressed Regret for
Loss of Life, Etc.

Berlin, via London.-Germany's note
to the United States bearing on the
sinking of the White Star Line steam
er Arabic on Aug. 10, which was COM
municated to the American ambassa.
dor, James w. Gerard Thursday for
transmission to Washington, is in the
form of a memorandum under date Of
Sept. 7, the text Of which follows:
ION Aug. IS a German submarine
stopped the English steamer Dunsley
about sixteen nautical miles south Of
Kinsale and was on the point of sink
ing the prize by gunfire after the crew
had left the vessel. At this moment
the commander saw a large steamer
making directly toward him. This
steamer, as developed later, was the
Arabic. She was recognized as an
enemy vessel, as she did not fly any
flag and bore no neutral markings.
when she approached she altered
her original course, but then again
pointed directly toward the subma-
rine. From this the commander be-
came convinced that the steamer had
the intention of attacking and ram
ming him.
"ln order to anticipate this attack
he gave orders for the submarine to
dive and fired torpedo at the steam
er. After firing he convinced himself
that the people on board were being
rescued in fifteen boats.
According to his instructions the
commander was not allowed to attack
the Arabic without warning and with
out saving the lives unless the ship
attempted to escape or offered resist
ance. He was forced, however, to
conclude from the attendant circum-
stances that the Arabic planned VIC
lent attack on the submarine.
This conclusion is all the more OBJ
vious as he had been fired upon at a
great distance in the Irish sea on Aug.
14-that Is, few days before-by a
large passenger steamer apparently
belonging to the British Royal Mail
Packet Company, which he had Meth
er attacked nor stopped.
"The German government most
deeply regrets that lives were lost
through the action of the commander
1t particularly expresses this regret
to the government Of the United
States on account of the death of
American citizens.
THE German government is unable,
however to acknowledge any obliga-
ton to grant indemnity in the matter,
even if the commander should have
been mistaken as to the aggressive in
tentions of the Arabic.
IF it should prove to be the case
that it is impossible for the German
and American governments to reach
harmonious opinion on this point the
German government would be pre-
pared to submit the difference of opin-
ion as being a question of internation-
al law to The Hague tribunal for arbi-
tration.
