a never ending sleep.

London, April S0.--Austria-Hu Hungary
today delivered an ultimatum TO Mon

surrender and evacuate Ecutan by
Thursday.
II this Is not compiled with Aus
tria will Immediately declare war
against Montenegro and begin the
movement of troops across the Alban-
Ian and Montengrin frontiers. This
decision was semi-officially announced
In Vienna by Count Won Berchtold,
foreign minister, following his two
hour conference with Emperor
Francis Joseph.
scutari Must Be Evacuated.
Austria's decision to take imme-
date independent action was an
nonuecd in the following official dis
patch received in London: Sc
''Austria.Hungary, finding that the
ambassadors conference Of Monday
produced no results, has decided to
take matters in her own hands and
carry out the decision of the powers
that Scutari must be evacuated" .'
Upon receipt of this message, Sir
Edward Grey, British secretay OF
state. called a hurried meeting Of the
foreign ambassadors, who had ad-
journed until Thursday, to consider
Austria's action. .. @.
1t was learned also that Italy has
made strong protest in Vienna
against Austria acting alone against
King Nicholas, and has brought much
pressure to bear upon Montenegro to
induce King Nicholas to surrender
Scutari at once.
Situation 10 Serious.
Dispatches from Vienna show that
no effort has been made to disguise
the seriousness OF the situation in
Vienna. The aged emperor, Francis
Joseph, has declared that Europe has
forced him to go to war. The gov
eminent is known to be making pre-
parations for real war Everywhere
throughout the empire troops are on
the move. Within another day more
than 10000 Austrian troops will be
modified along the Montenegpin from
tier, ready to cross the border on
short notice. IT,
In diplomatic circles here II is felt
that Austria is Arm in her demand
! that Scutari must be evacuated by
Thursday. and it is not denied that
this unexpected move has given seri
GUS turn to the Balkan situation.
May involve Other Powers .,
While there is no doubt that Aus
tria will be able to enforce her de-
mands against the tiny kingdom, il
is felt that other powers will be drawn
into the conflict. Russia, the great
Slavic power, has taken no part in
the diplomatic conferences concern
ing the evacuation OF Scutari, and
from the popular feeling now at g
high pitch in that country, it Ii
thought that Russia might go to tht
aid of Montenegro. so.
Should Russia assist Montenegro
against another power, Germany
would be almost certain to take 9
hand, as the policy OF that nation fol-
years has been against Russia's OBJ
tanning a foothold on the Adriatic.
