News Leaks Out That Baron
Auffenberg Has Been Re-
Iieyed of Command

VENICE, June 36-The story Of the
fall of General Baron AunenbeTg
from his position as commander OF
one of the most powerful OF the Aus
t11o-Hungarian armies to an incom-
munica6o cell in an unnamed prison
Is enc OF the most closely guarded
secrets an Vienna Austrian news
papers are not allowed to even men
ton his name. and inquirerS even in
the hungarian house Of deputies have
been advised 10 let the matter drop.
From information which has just
reached Venice 1t appears that the
general was summary arrested as
he was about TO leave for Switzerland
and has not since been allowed to
communicate even with his family or
lawyers. His object in going TO Swift
zerland was the publication OF vol
ume of memoirs. IN which he hoped
to establish his innocence OF n1isman-
aging the Austrian campaign against
Serbia by putung the blame upon the
shoulders OF the Austrian commander
IN chief. the Archduke Frederic.
The following explanation OF Cen
eral Auffenberg's rise and fan comes
from personal friends Of the generals.
1t is in general agreement With such
facts OF the case as have been pre-
viously established:
General Aunenberg as a former
minister OF war and one OF the great
soldiers OF the empire, was placed IN
command of the armies which UNI
dertook the invasion Of Serbia at the
beginning Of the war This invasion
ended disastrous1y: the Austrians
were defeated with tremendous losses
and retired back across the frontier
in disorder. There was hasV in
vestfgation in Vienna, and the inves-
tsators reported that General Auffen-
berg was mainly responsible. owing to
his gross mistakes OF strategy IN
planning and carrying out his offense
They recommended that he be sus-
pended from his command
<But it seemed unwise to the mill
tary powers to thus draw public at
tention to the extent Of the disaster
in Serbia so it was decided that Auf-
fe1berg's retirement should be at
tributed to i'll health brought on by
the strenuous exer6ons of the cam

should be conferred on him TO sup
port the impression that after al
nothing really serious had happened
to the Austrian forces in Serbia Inc
new baron was ordered home, ana
placed on the retired list among Or

Investigation OF the situation As
soon as he found out that he was
blamed for the failure OF the Serbian
Campaign he demanded that his side
Iof the story should be heard He got
no encouragement in Official circles,
but it became generally known among
military men that he planned to re-
establish his own reputation by show
ing that the blame for the faHure
must be attributed to The Archduke
Frederic

of the war
This remark. together with others
of similar nature, reached the ears OF
the archduke, and the latter's influ-
ence was exercised TO bring about the
downfall of the general The climax
came when Aufenberg asserted that
having failed to secure a hearing in
official circles, he would prove his
own innocence and the archduke's
bameworthiness by writing book on
tie war and having 1t published in
Switzerland
ITO prevent his flight into Switzer-
land and the publication OF the threat
ened book, Emperor Francis Joseph
himself stepped IN and ordered him
arrested and placed in solitary con-
fnement until the end OF the war. He
was committed to pris N by imperial
order without the semblance OF a trial
or investigation, and was not allowed
TO communicate with the outside
world. Questions addressed to the
government IN the Hungarian house
of deputies were answered with the
statement that the government could
not at this time deal with purely
