From these articles 1t would appear
that the request for his recall has
divided Austrian statesmen into two
camps. those Of Baron Burian. the
foreign minister, who apparently are
persuaded that Ambassador Dumba
acted under tho influence Of Won Bern
storff, the German ambassador to the
United States, without orders from the
home government, The Hungarian
party on the contrary believes DR..
Dumba did his duty, in order to pre-
vent arms and ammunition from reach
ing the armies Of the entente powers.
1t Is cleaned from the newspaper
articles that Emperor Francis Joseph
was displeased when he learned Of the
action taken by the United States, and
he considered the Austrian ambassador
was not guilty Of action attributed to
him by the United States.
It is said kilograms of somewhat
hitter tone were exchanged o;; the
subject between Foreign Minister
Won Bethmann- Holweg, the German
chancellor.
The German emperor is declared to
have been greatly interested in the de-
velopment, and to have recalled
