WASHINGTON, D. S. Sept. 10
President Wilson'S recent request to
the Austrian government to recall
Ambassador Dumba, who now repre-
sents the Vienna government at
Washington, it now appears, has pre-
cipitated a situation which contains
grave possibilities of involving other
diplomats affiliated with the Teptonic
alliance, and caused sensation in
official circles here as we'll as in sew
eral European capitals.
Information on which the president
requested the recall of Ambassador
Dumba merely confirmed reports from
London that the Austrian diplomat has
used James Archibald, an American
news writer, to carry his Objectionable
communication to Vienna, whereas
more recent developments indicate q
much more serious situation Today
it was unofficially stated that Archi-
tain Va Apen, military attache of the
German embassy here, the contents OF
which have not yet been revealed
Ambassador Bernstorff and other
officials at the German legation de-
clined to discuss the case with an AS
sociated Press representative this af-
teruoon, bet it is learned on reliable
authority that Secretary Lansing has
begun an investigation of the new
est phase of the international scandal
through the medium of the state de
partment and that the whole affair is
to be SIZED to the bottom.
Both Ambassador Benrsorff and
Consul General Won Lumber, of Aus
tria, are alleged to be involved in the
despatch of the Dumba note by
Archibald, though to what extent it is
impossible to state at this time Mil
tary Attache Won Papen's connection
with the transaction, it is said, was
confined TO the sending of a private
message to his wife, this being alleg-
ed to contain uncomplimentary re
marks concerning American officials
and the Washington government. The
fact that such language was used in a
private communication by a diplomat
accredited to the United States gov.
ernment would make no difference.
however, since the statements contain
ed therein have been publicly known,
and would likely be taken cognizancs
of by President Wilson and his ad.
yisers as quickly as If used in ar
ordinary communication.
Count Dumba's letter, which is now
in The hands of the Dutch governmen;
authorities at Rotterdam, is alleged tc

MAN KILLED BY SWITCH ENGINE

Early Saturday morning Joseph Mac
Donald, boat hand, was killed by a
switch engine on the tracks of the G..
q N. w. Ry. Co. on the lake front.
He had been making the rounds of the
saloons here for day or two and was
evidently on his way back to the slip
to board the next ferry boat that came
in when he fell or lay down on the
tracks and went to sleep. His body
was seen by the train crew but too late
to stop the engine from running over
Lin. A coroners inquest was held
Monday morning at which evidence of
the train crew and others was taken
and the verdict of the jury exonerated
the crew from blame. Macdonald has
been coming to the city for several
years past as workman OF the ferry
beats which ply hSAw@5n hsre and
Michigan ports, and has on previous
occasions stopped here for a day or
two. He has no relatives so far as can
be learned. Arrangements have been
made to bury the body at the expense
of the county.
