Germans Strikt This Tim Find Men to Deliver Blow Agt of Hacking Way Through t ria Reported Bound to ' Claims Advances / The Germans have opened hostilities, 1 on another front?thi* time against the Servians in the region of Semendria, Southeast of Belgrade. This move ? seemingly has as its object the win- ? ning of the strip of territory west of * the Danube to the Budapest-Belgrade- c Sofia-Adrianople-Constantinople rail- * way, which would give a direct route f from Hungary through Servia and * Bulgaria to the Turks on the Gallipoli 1 peninsula. Should the German allies endeavor j ( to force their way through Servia to j Bulgaria, they will find the Servians : not alone in barring their progress. ( The French already have been assist- * ing the Servians in the field and it r wa6 announced in July that a large c British force had been sent to Servia. [ t 17 Bulgaria's position has not been * officially stated, but it is believed th?t s concessions made to her recently by t Turkey bind her in some measure to < Turkey and Turkey's allies, although c as late as Friday last, King Ferdinand s fold the opposition leaders in Sofiia that Bulgaria was under no obligation! to either of the belligerent groups.

Correspondent Declares He ,Has Nol Connived to Break Neutrality Laws of United States. New York, Sept. 20.?James F. J Archibald, the American correspondent, who carried a message from Dr Constantin T. Dumba, Austro-Hungarian ambassador at Washington, addressed to the Austrian foreign minister, which led to a request from United States for the ambassador's recall, issued a statement here today denying that he had connived to breal the neutrality laws of* the Unitec States or was an official dispatcl bearer. The letter was seized by British authorities when Archibald was inter cepted at Falmouth. On his return here today aboard th< steamship Rotterdam, Archibald de clined to discuss the affair until h< had consulted his lawyer ana had ac quainted himself as he explained "witl what had been said in this country." "Dr. Dumba's letter,'' said Archi bald's statement, "was given to m< most openly at the steamer's gang plank just before sailing Hundreds o persons were about and there was no the slightest suggestion o? .secrecy Of its contents I had absolutely n< knowledge. 1 supposed, of course, tna it simply referred to my work. I fee that the very open manner in whici the letter was gi-ven me shows that Di Dumba had no intention of using m or my passport as a shield for th transportation of any improper let ters.

Of course, in doing this for Am bassador and Mrs. Gerard I did i simply as a matter of friendship, pre cisely as I carried the letters in t'ai case. Archibald stated that before Ifeavin; for belligerent territory "to do fiel work"' with armies in the war h "sought letters of introduction and rec ommendation." These letters, most c which were written in German, he saic lica, where Austrian troop movements lad been reported. xRACE WASHBUBN IN "WHEN IT STKIKES HOME* Cast.
