Ambassador Penfleld at Vienna has been Instructed by cable to in form the Austro-Hungarian gov ernment that Dr. Constantin Dum- ba no longer to acceptable as an envoy to the United States and to ask for his recall. ■ <* * . Secretary Lansing formally an nounced the action Thursday night. It was the answer of the. American government to Dr. Dumba's explana tion of his intercepted letter to Vien na outlining plans for handicapping American plants making war supplies for the AUles. Ambassador Penfleld was instruct ed by cable to deliver the following note to the foreign office: •|Mr. Constantin ibumba, the Aus tro-Hungarian ambassador at Wash ington, has admitted that he propos ed to his government plans to Insti gate strikes in American manufactur ing plants engaged in the production of munitions of war. The informa tion reached this government through a copy of a letter of the am bassador to his government. The bearer was an American citizen nam ed Archibald, who was travelling under an American passport. The ibassador has admitted that he em ployed Archibald to bear official dis patches from him to his government. 'By reason of the r.dmitted pur pose and intention of Mr. Dumba to conspire to cripple legitimate indus tries of the people of the United States and to interrqpt their legiti mate trade, anU by reason of the fla grant violation of diplomatic pro priety In employing an American cit izen protected by an American pass port as a secret bearer of official dis patches through the lines of the enemy of Austria-Hungary, the presi dent directs me to inform your ex eellency that Mr. Dnmba is no longer acceptable to the government of the United States as the ambassador of his imperial majesty at Washington. “Believing that the imperial and royal government will re: Use that the government of the United States has no alternative but to request the recall of Mr. Dumba on account of his improper conduct the government of the United States expresses its deep regret thr.t this course has be come necessary and assures the 1m pertal and royal government that it sincerely desires to continue the cor dial and friendly relations which ex ist between the United States and Austria-Hungary. ’’ In making his announcement Sec retary Lansing explained that it had been delayed that the note might reach Vienna before Its publication in this country. Ambassador Pen fleld had not been heard from, but it was assumed that he received the communication. News that Dr. Dumba's recall had been requested created a sensation in the capital. It had been known in official and diplomatic circles that • President Wilson and Secretary Lan sing regarded the conduct of the am bassador as a grave breach of pro priety but there had been a well de fined Impression that the only imme dlate step would ho the cancellation, announced Thursday, of the passport of James F. J. Archibald, the Ameri can who carried the Intercepted dis patches. Dr. Dumba left the capital for the -^tymmer embassy at Lenox. Miss., to J^^«<ait word as to whether the admin- fl^Btration was not satisfied with his ^^fplanation to Mr. I-ansing Tuesday, tie had come to Washington on his own Initiative after news of Archi bald’s detention and extracts of his dispatch to Vienna had been publish ed in this country. No statement was made either by the ambassador or Secretary Lansing concerning their conference, though it was learned later that Dr. Dumba frankly admitted having employed Archibald as a messenger and his plans to withdraw Austro-Hungarian labor and handicap American plants making war munitions for the Allies. It was stated at the embassy that the ambassador had been Instructed - by the foreign office to give the wid est publicity possible to a degree against the aiding by Austro-Hun- » garians in the mppufacture of muni tlons for enemies of their country and that this was the only step con templated in orders so far received The plans proposed for embarrass ing plants and calling out laborers in bodies originated with the ambassa dor, who was said to be taking not action toward patting his ideas into effect pending further instructions from Vienna. The choice of Archi bald as a dispatch bearer both fot; the German and Austro-Hungcxian gov ernments, It was declared, was with out orders or sanction from abroad. While everywhere it was admitted that the situation created by the American note might prove a serious one in its effect on the relations be tween the two governments, it was pointed out that the language of the communication indicated clearly a desire to have Dr. Dumba recalled without making a diplomatic issue of his case. No mention was made of the order given the ambassador to ^■Aplalm his government’s decree to I^Ktro-Hungarians working in this ^Wintry to which he is accredited find a request for his recall does not necessarily mean more than that he to personally objectionable: If Vienna aljonld take tl*U view of the case and withdraw Dr. Dumba without entering into the question as ' to the propriety of his conduct of its right to control the action of Austro- Hungarians la this country, it to 4a- tnation tor tlM presan On the other hand, parse la diplomacy say that a decision at Vienna to uphold tha ambassador would be followed by a severance of diplomatic relations between the two governments. This would be a seri ous development even if no declara tions of war followed, not only on account of the position in which It would leave A-ustro-Huag^rlans here, but because of its effect on the part the United States Is playing as diplo matic representative of Austria-Hun gary and other belligerents of Eu rope. Diplomats In dose touch with the Austro-Hungarian embassy declare, however, that there Is little room for doubt that Dr. Dumba will be recall ed immediately on receipt of Secre tary Lansing’s request. Baron von Zwiedenek; counsellor, probably will be made charge d'affaires to remain as head of the embassy until the end of the war. While ordinarily, it was explained, the failure to send a suc cessor to an ambassador would Indi cate the displeasure of his govern ment over the request for his recall, the difficulties which would attend the coming of a new ambassador made a distinct difference in this case. It is understood that Ambassador Dumba will not be handed his pass ports, but will be permitted to fol low his own course and wait word from Vienna. If he. should desire to return home it would he necessary for the American government to se cure a safe conduct for him from the Allies. 'Constantin Theodor Dumba pre sented his credentials immediately after the inauguration of President Wilson, succeeding Baron Hengel- mueiler, then dean of the diplomatic corps. It is significant that, in an in terview given out shortly after his arrival in America, Dr. Dumba sounded the keynote of his whole ac tivity in the country—improvement in conditions among Austro-Hunga rian laborers in America. He has been one of the most popu lar members Of the diplomatic corps, and, although In hla term of nearly three years in Washington there had until recently been no momentous matter that has brought ^lm into of ficial relations with the’ American government, his personality and his frank manner made him a welcome visitor at the state department. Thirty-four years In the diplomatic service, including posts in London St. Petersburg, at the quirlnal, Buch arest, Paris, Serbia and Sweden, rounded out his career, which, if it bad not been for the present diffi culty, probably would have closed here with retirement at the end of the war. The ambassador has spent many years of his life in English-speaking society, and even the war did not af feet his warm sympathy for things and people British. Only diplomatic propriety forced a severance of his intimate friendship with Sir Cecil Spring-Rice, the British ambassador Ambassador Dumba will leave his signature on no important treaties or memorials, but he will be remember ed as a prominent factor in helping to smooth over the rough places when the German situation was at its worst. His ardent activity in the interests of his nationals, which, his friends say, was what led hlm.to take the un fortunate step resulting In his re quest for his recall, was his chief In terest. tSKS DUNS HOT BimSH 5 Par a tow if Um hill wae ’ all RUSSIANS REPORT VICTORY OVER AUSTRIANS ON FRIDAY Berlin Jastlflee Sinking Vpom down Approach f Blf ] Offers to Arbitrate. Germany’* note to the United States’bearing on tho clnklnr of. the White Star Line steamer "Arabic on August 19, which waa communicated to the American ambassador, James W. Gerard, for > transmission to Washington, -is in the forth of a memorandum under date of Septem ber 7, the text of which is sent from Berlin and Is as follows: “On August 19 a Gorman subma rine stopped <he English steamer Dunsley about sixteen nautical miles south of Klnsale and was on the point of sinking the prise by gunfire after tho crew had loft tho vessel. At this mpmont the commander saw a large steamer making directly to ward him. This steamor, as develop ed later, was the Arabic. She was recognized as an enemy vessel, no she did not fly any flag and bore no neutral markings. “When she approached she altered her original course, but then again pointed directly toward the subma rine. From this tho commander be came convinced that the steamer had the intention of attacking md ram ming him. t ' "In order to. anticipate this attack he gave orders for the,submarine to dive and fired a torpedo at the steam er. After firing he convinced himself that the people on board were being rescued in fifteen boata. "According to his instruction the commander was not allowed to at tack the ’Arabic without warning and without saving the lives unless the ship attempted to escape or offered resistance. He was forced, however, to conclude from the attendaht cir cumstances that the Arabic planned a violent attack on the submarine. “This conclusion la all the more obvious as he had been fired upon at & great distance in the Irish sea on August 14—that is a few days be fore—by a large passcngcu- steamer apparently belonging to the British Royal Mall S’eam Packet company whiCh he bad neither attacked nor stopped. "The German government most deeply regrets that lives were lost through the action of the command er. It particularly expresses this re gret to the government of the United States on account of the death of American citlsens. “Tho German government is un able, however, to acknowledge any obligation to grant Indemnity in the matter, even if the commander should hnve been mlstr.kcn as to the aggressive Intentions of t|)e Arabic. “If It should prove to be the that it Is impossible for the German and American governments to reach a harmonious opinion on tl Is point, the German government would be prepared to submit the difference of opinion, as being r. question of Inter national law, to the Hague tribunal for arbitration, pursuant to article 38 ‘of the Hague convention for the pacific settlement of intcrnatlobal disputes. * “In so doing it assumes that as matter of course the arbited decision shall not be admitted to have the im portance of a general decision on the permissibility or the converse under International law of German subma rine warfare.’’ CRANE UP MUIPOU BROKEN - BY STONEWALL DEFENCE KILLS WIFE ON STREET CAR Make Total Captives of Fifteen Thou sand—French and German Claims are Conflicting. London. Friday: The Russian vic tory at Tarnopol, Eastern Galicia, has been followed by another effective blow at the Austrians at Trembowla, twenty miles farther south. In the combined actions more than fifteen thousand prisoners have been taken, according to Pet rograd's reports. The Russians were unable to follow up the advantage gained at Trembowla owing to their inferiority In artil lery. and the Austrians were not pushed beyond the River Sereth. Baring Its Judgment on reports that the Germans are fortifying themselves strongly in the vicinity of Vilna, together with the trend of events on the southern wing of the eastern front and the slow progress of the Teutonic center, the British feeling Is that cessation of the Aus- tro-German offensive in the east may be at hand. Such a development wi^uld spell victory for that faction of the German general staff which has argued that the lengthening of communications was involving too much risk to warrant a further ad vance. French and German claims are so contradictory that it is Ampossible to obtain a clear view of the situation in the Argonne, where the German crown prince is reported to have made considerable progress. The French are attempting to recover the lost ground, which the Germans as sert includes the fortified position at Marie Therese. It is likely there will be -some bitter fighting in the next few days in this region. Airships Over Holland.

They were traveling in the direction of the English coast. An other airship passed over a suburb of Amsterdam. .VafthTtlle Man Then Goes Home and Comm it* Htairide.

Falling to take the Turkish posi tions at Sari Bair by surprise, as was recorded by Ellis Ashmead-Bart- lett, in a dispatch to the London Post, the/British attackers rested for ten days in preparation for the des perate expediency of attacking tho trenches in a frontal attack. The British correspondent describes tho action as follows: If we have failed in the great strategic scheme of getting astride of the. peninsula north of Anzao. by seizing the hills around Anafarth and forcing, the enemy to abandon his positions before Achi Baba and on the Kllid Bahr salient, it certainly has not been through want of try ing. The original plan just failed, as the most carefully laid plans will go wrong in war, because a corps failed to carry out the task assigned it, namely, to push through with a rush when the enemy was completely sur prised and had only a few battalions to oppose our divisions. The first attempt to seize the hills around Anafarta having definitely broken down by the morning of Au gust 19, it required time to sort and reorganize the units, collect the wounded and land stores, ammuni tion, and artillery before any fresh attempt could be made against the position, and it was not until August Si that the army was in position to make a frontal attack on the Turks hi this quarter. This ten days’ Jnterval was made full use of by the enemy, who now, knowing definitely where our main blow would fall, was able to release bis divisions in the north, stationed around Bulalr, and bring some of them to the threatened point. All hope of effecting a surprise had now vanished, and it was obvious that the position comprised within the sect stretching from Hill 70 to Hill 11*— the line chosen tor our assault could only be taken by a frontal at tack aad sheer bard fighting. Mean while, the Turks had made fall ase of the time afforded them, aad, ac cording to their invariable practice, dug themselvesrln up to their nefks Our Immediate objective on Um left was the rapt are of Hill TO, which Ilea la front of the main position, a has caused us so much trouble ever since tbe landing. Our center and right were to advance from the ridge la front of Chocolate Hill to Yilghln Burnu. as it is marked on the map and from the trenchA In the plain south of It. and. aftor capturing the Turkish trenches In the low ground in the immediate front, were to con verge and assault the main objoc tlve. Hill 112. For the bombardment which waa to precede the attack the battleships moved in closer to shore, being sup ported by cruisers and several moni tors. At exactly three p. m., A agent 21, the first gun waa fired, and for a half hour we witnessed another of those terrible bombardment* which become a commonplace on this bloody soil. Once again the enemy's trenches appeared to be swallowed up in clouds of earth and smoke; but the Turks showed no sign, and not a man left his position. While this bombardment lasted tbe enemy's guns replied furiously, con centrating their Are chiefly on and behind Chocolate Hill, which w wreathed in bursting shrapnel. Very soon the shells set fire to the bush and scrub, and the fire, fanned by ths breeze, burned iurlously, spread ing with amazing r pidity and at times blotting out the position in clouds of rolling smoke and flames. At three-thirty a regiment crept for ward from tbe trenches and endeav ored to form a firing line at the foot of Hill 70. This was the signal for a terrific outbreak of rifle fire from the whole length of the Turkish line. At the same time another regiment advanced against tho south side of Hill 70 and established themselves in the burnt scrub at its foot. The guns still thundered. away at the trenches at the top, but the Turk ish infantry did not seem to care, many standtag boldly up from their cover in order to get a better view of the advancing lines of khaki figures. The rifle fire was deafening, and I do not think I ever heard such a din as that produced by the ships’ guns and the field pieces, >the bursting shells’and thousands of rifles on any battlefleld before. At three-fifty two regiments made a final rush up the hill—-one bat talion from the west and another from the south. A great solid mass of khaki with bayonets glistening amid the smoke and dust seemed to emerge from the burned scrub aad surge toward the trenches on top. For a few minutes the artillery lengthened their fuses and shelled the reverse slopes, leaving the trench line dear. Hie Turks came out on top and fired furiously into the ad vancing lines. Some of them seem ed to waver for a moment and aban doned the crest, running down be hind; but the majority stuck to their trenches, determined to die where they stood. Our men got high up on tbe hill, but on the north side the battalion waa brought to a standstill ’by ma ss guns and a cross fire on tbe th. Some of oar men reached the top and . jampad Into the trenches, where they died fighting among the Turks at th* point of the bayonet. hind Hih 11* fired salvoee of tort at a range of only twelve! yards, which simply sureg lines away aad forced tha m to retire farther down the slopes to *•*7 or Havdl Puipssea feeble cover. Here they hung on a few mlnutee, but tho attack had spent Us force, and they came back to the trenches so recently left. The attack had failed once more. Hill 70 left to the Turks, with wounded and dead. Meanwhile the fighting ’..ad bean Just »s severe on the right, for at half-past three the troops of a certain division rushed from the trenches and stormed , the first Turkish line under a fearful flro, over ground without a particle of cover.

The intending porch&eers, through - . storm the second Turkish Uno in tho flat, which was established in a dead ly hoopholel trench, with overhead covering. j Unable to clear the Turks from the open, our infantry wheeled to the north, according to a previous plan, to form an asa'.ult on Hill 112, while a brigade advanced from the ridge in front of Yilghln Burnt:—or rather, they were driven off it to the south side by the terrible fire which had broken out, this having been started by the bursting shells. The flames swept in a solid bank, Nurrounded by rolling clouds of black smoke, right acroes the hill, and the heat was terrific. Many of the wound ed, who had been placed or. had crawled there for safety, had to be hastily carried out and laid out in the open. ■All this delayed and stopped the further development of the attack on Hill 112. A division wheeling to ward the same objective was caught at short range by tbe eneny’s second trench on its flank in tbo cp -n plain. It became obvious that It would be impossible to proceed with the ad vance on Hill 112 unlew this trewh line were taken. Throughout the af ternoon the fighting la this quarter ww intense, and the rifle fire tre mendous, but we could not gain an other yard of ground. Meanwhile, orders were laaned for another attack on Hill 70 by a bat talion which had hitherto been held In reserve and a mounted division in reserve behind Lain Baba. This spies did body of troops, in action for the first time and led by men bearing some of tbe boat known nt mea In England, moved out from under cover and proceeded to cro.'S tbo Salt Lake in open order. No sooner dM'th^r the Turk! hind the infantry brigade la front of Hill TO. It waa now rtx o’clock, more tho crest was hardrd by every available gua, while fcuh bnUerii TVm tie, but awful, and waa almost Mot ted out with ■nous clouds of awoke aad flea trees, scrub, homesteads and the very graaa burned furiously at points, while the noise of sands of rifles rendered the scene s perfect inferno. A little after six, the battalions went forward, seized the southern slope* of the hill and began to dig themselves in, preparatory to a fur ther advance against the top. At this point the siteil fire seemed to be gin to tell on the Turks, for maay of them could be seen streaming from the northern knoll of the hill, down to the trench line, either because It had become untenable or they were preparing to meet the advance of our men.. For an hour ther was no change in tho situatkn, and then the yeomanry again moved forward in a solid mass, forming up undor the lower western and northern slopes. It was now almost beginning to be dark, and the attack seemed to hang fire, when suddenly the yeomanry leaped to their^feet and as a single man charged right up the bill. They were met by a withering fire, which roee in crescendo as they neared the northern crest; but nothing- could stop them. They charged at amazing speed, without a single halt from the bottom to the top, losing many men and many of their chosen leaders, including gallant Sir John Mllbanks. It was a stirring sight, watched by thousands in tho now evor-gatlnring gloom. One moment they were be low the crest, the next on top. A moment after many had disappeared inside the Turkish trenches, bayonet- ting all the defenders who had not fled in time, while others never stop ped at the trenches line, but Hashed in pursuit down the reverse slopes. From thousands of Ups the shout went up that Hill 70 was won. But the night' was now rapidly falling. The figures became blurred, then lost all shape and finally disappeared from view, and as one left Chocolate Hill ho looked back on a vista of rolling clouds of smoko and huge fires, from tho midst of which tho roar of the rifle lire never ceased. \ AH through the night the battle raged Incessantly, and when morning broke HIH 70 was no longer in our possession. Apparently the Turks driven off the knoU on the northern crest, from which they enfiladed us with machine guns and artillwy fire, while those of the yeo manry who dashed down the reverse slopes in pursuit were counter-attack ed aad lost heavily, being obliged to retire. In the night it waa derided that It would be Impossible to hold the hiD in daylight, and the order was given for the troops to withdraw to their original posltioaa. Nothing, however, ill leasen tbs glory of that final ebarga of England's yeoman. Thus ended this great fight.
