SAFE CONDUCT ASKED
FOR WIFE OF DUMBA
State Department Puzzled by Request
Without Intimation of En-
VOWS Departure.

The Austro-Hungarian Embassy has
asked the State Department to use its
good offices TO secure a safe conduct
from the allies for Nine. Dumba, wife
of the AustrO- Hungarian Ambassador,
whose recall was demanded by the
United States in a note dispatched to
Vienna som days ago.
Nine. Dumha plans to sail from New
York on the Rotterdam on September
IS Whether she will he accompanied
hy Dr. Dumba depends upon future
, events. State Department officials eX-
pressed surprise Yesterday upon the
receipt of a request from the Austro-
Hungarian Embassy requesting safe
conduct for Nine. Dumba without maxi
ing any reference to the Ambassador
himself.
BY direction of Frank Polk. the Act
in= Secretary of State. the Department
has brought the request made in behalf
of Nine Dumba to the attention OF the
British and French Ambassadors. State
department officials are confident that
the courtesy of a safe conduct will be
extended to Nine. Dumba.
The action of the Austro-Hungarian
Embassy in asking for a safe conduct for
Nine. Dumba without at the same time
making like request for the Ambassa-
dor indicates in the opinion of officials.
that DIR. Dumba is without information
from his government as to its intentions
relative 10 the demand for his recall
made by the United States. Officials are
inclined to believe that Dr. Dumba will
be recalled in time to permit of his de-
1arture with Nine. Dumba on the twenty
light. Nevertheless the application re-
,..ivnd from the Austro-HunSarian En-
bassv lends an element of uncertainty
90 the situation that officials frankly
admit puzzle them somewhat.

at Dvinsk Critical. Say Russians.

Petrograd. Sept 2l.-Great German
siege guns are now battering away at
the Notifications of Dvinsk. the great
Russian fortress on the Dvina River. Aft
er desperate resistance by the Russians
west of the Dvina. the troops of Field
Marshall Won Hindenburg have succeed
ed in bringing up their 42-centimeter
cannon.
German aeroplanes are flying over
Dvinsk. dropping bombs upon the Rus
sian batteries and directing the fire of
the Teuton guns. According to the latest
reports. several fires have been set in
Dvinsk
Before the bonlbardment opened the
great mass of the civil popula ton had
left the city in response to warnings by
the Russian military authorities.
1t WAS admitted at the war office to-
day that the situation in Dvinsk is
critical This fortress forms part of the
third line Of Russian defense. the first
and second being respectively the Wis
tula and Bug forts, all of which are now
in German hands.
War office officials asserted however,
that the Russian artillery along the
Dvina River at Dvinsk. and then the
north and south of the city would be
able to hold back the Teutonic army
until the Wilma army had extricated it
self from the German trap set by Won
Hindenburg and Prince Leopold of Ra-
varia.
Hard fighting is in progress along all
OF the Filna-Lida front, the Russian rear
guards holding in check the pursuing

Secretary Discusses Radio-controlled
Torpedo with Inventor. John
HAYS Hammond. Ir.

John Hays Hammond. jr.. inventor
OF the wireless-controlled boat. sub
mitted to Secretary of the Navy Daniels
yesterday modification of his inven-
tion which he thinks may be applied
20 torpedocs when discharged from
submarines.
MIR. Hammond was reticcnt about
details of his invention. but it is un-
derstood il is in the nature of a modi-
fed application of the same principles
utilized in the development of his
radio-controlled boat This device al
ready has been demonstrated to the
satisfaction of experts of the War De
rartment. who have recommended to
Congress that ii be- purchased for use
in connection with coast dcfen Ope-
-ation.;.
Mr.. Hammond called attention, in
discussing his invention. to the fact
that IorpedocS. now used. cannot he
controlled in their movements after
leaving the torpedo tube. The appa-
ratus for automatic control of tor
pedoes is not altogether satisfactory or
reliable This. h" believes. is one of
the reasons why the German Subma- :
rine operations have not hecn more
succcssful: that many of their tor
Pedoes have missed their mark.
