AMERICA ASKS PASSPORTS
FOR AUSTRIAN AMBASSADOR
VARHI-.flTO'. Dee. 1. The
5 'nited States lias pent two notes to
Hircnt IlrUain and Franco It became
nown today, requesting reconsiuora-
iou by those governiuents 01 tneir
;o-eiusai 10 issue a sine eouuuci
through their blockade lines to Count
Tarnowsky. the new Austro-HuiiRar-lan
ambassador to this country and
speaking of the unfortunate effect
that a continued refusal would have
on opinion here.
The notes point out that it is an
International right of sovereign na
tions to exchange ambassadors and
Insist that a third nation even in time
of war Is not Justified in denying that
right.
Great care is taken to base the
representations solely on the grounds
of international right as distinguish
ed from mere international courtesy,
making it clear that the United States
Is not asking a favor or assuming the
attitude of a pleader.
Care Is also takon not to put the
government In the position of having
changed its attitude since the last
communication on the subject, which
was merely the transmission of the
Austrian government's request for a
safo conduct. It was planned kt first
when the rebuff was received to drop
the position of being a messenger of
Austria, and make a formal demand
In tho name of the United States.

NEW YORK, Dec. 1 An unldenti.
fled vessel riding low In the water
without the usual green and red side
lights and believed to bo 'a subma
rine, was sighted 40 mllos east of
Diamond Shoals, Cape Hattcras, at
10:30 p. m., November 29, from the
bridge of the American steamship
Crofton Hall, according to officers of
the ship on her arrival here todny
from South American ports.
The unknown craft, tho officers
said, was moving In a southerly di
rection, following a Spanish sailing
ship.
The belief that it might have boen
a submarine was strengthened, tho
officers asserted, by tho fact that
they had picked up several wireless
messages from naval stations in Ber
muda and from British warships
warning British ships to look our for
submarines.
YANKE U-BOAT STAND
CALLED BLUFF BY GERMANS
BERLIN', Dec. 1. The Uorlin
papers print prominently a summary
of tho Associated Pross' Washington,
dispatch of November 19, which was
greatly delayed in reaching them.
Where comments are made, It Is ovi
dent that the attitude of tho Amer
ican government has created a bad
impression. The papers fail to see
the grounds at this moment for sud
denly alleging that the Lusitania
question remains unsettled.
Both conservative and liberal or
gans agree in condemning the atti
tude ascribed to the American gov
ernment respecting German submar
ine activities on the American coaBt.
They point out that Germany is fully
complying with the American demand
that submarine operations follow the
cruiser provisions of The Hague con
vention, oven refraining from firing
torpedoes whllo under water. Tho
papers also Ircject tho assumption
that tho cruise of the U-D3 had the
character of a blockade of American
harbors and fall to see justification
for regarding It as "offensive.'1
The Post pronounces this charac
terization as "far fetched and rather
clu.nsy."
Count von Keventlow regards tho
dispatch as "a big bluff of threats
nnd warnings."
Tho Morgen Post says that If Presi
dent Wilson takes the stand indicuted
by the dispatch "he can never bo a
suitable mediator for peace and tliut
his intervention could only make tho
situation more dangorous and placo
now costacles in the wny of peace.''
