If the Austro-Hungar1an ambassa- dor goes, Captain von Papen of the German army, the military attache of the German mbassy in Washington, may go also. Captain von Papen was quoted by Dr. Dumba in the captured letter as expressing the opinion that the Dumba plan to tie up munitions plants in this country Ifs. of great importance and amply outweighs the expenditure of money involved" Fur thermore, Captain von Papen is rep resented as saying in a newspaper in- terview that he talked with Dr. Dum- ba about obtaining money from Vienna. for the support of Austrian and Hun garian subjects who might refuse to work in the factories that were mak- ing munitions for tour enemies" Whether or not the1r concoction of the scheme to disorganize an Ameri- can industry constituted a conspiracy in restraint of trade within the mean ing of the domestic laws Is not regard ed as of as much consequence as the fact that seems to stand out that dip lomatic representatives of foreign na- tions arranged program of interfer- ing with a matter of domestic con- cern and thereby, apparently, violated the hospitality extended to them by this government.

Commits l sioner Lord said today that there were 1 many minor discrepancies in their ac- 1 counts. Significance was placed by the police in a statement attributed to the cook, Leona Tiovonen, that she had met, on leaving the house, an hour before the crime was committed, former employe of Mrs. Nichols. who after leaving her employ had fre- quently called at the house and bor- rowed money from other servants there.

 Success in Galicia.
 'In Galicia, near Tarnopol, yes-' ,terday, we achieved a great success against the Germans. The German third guards division and the 18th Reserve division, reinforced by an Austrian brigade with great quanti- ties of heavy and light artillery, ac- cording to statements made by prisoners, had been preparing for several days for a decisive attack. This was fixed for the night of Tues day, Wednesday. Forestalling the enemy, our troops took the offensive and, after a stubborn fight on the river Dolynka the Germans were com pletely defeated Tuesday evening.
 a'At the end of the engagement the enemy developed an artillery fire of most extraordinary intensity. Only the impossibility of replying with the same weight of metal prevented us from further developing the success we had obtained. E''The Germans, besides suffering enormous losses in killed and wounded, left prisoners in our hands more than 200 officers and 5000 men. We captured thirty guns, fourteen of which were Of heavy calibre, many machine guns, gun limbers and other booty.
 After brief pursuit our troops occupied their former positions on the F River Sereth.
