Alleged Acts Of Hostility.

Events which then took place are
fresh in the memory of every one. On
the 31st of July there were acts of
hostility, clearly defined on our from
tier: the I'd of August saw the viola
ton OF the neutrality OF Luxembourg
and the entrance by, German troops
upon three points of our territory.
while our troops were holding them
selves at a distance of ten kilomeeters

same day Belgium was summoned to
against France. Finally, on the third
of August. the declaration Of war was

Behind the masses of suspicion and

Germans discovered from time to time
to keep the public in a state of I'M

mans have a base for submarines. a
supply station for aeroplanes and
wireless apparatus in remote parts of
the Scottish coast may be founded on
fact.
The activities of the German navy
far from its own coasts which have
enabled 1t to scatter mines OF the
north of Ireland and to sink the super
dreadnought Audacious by mine or
submarine furnish ground for that
theory. The government has given it
sufficient belief to circulate placards in
Scotland offering a reward of $500 for
the discovery of any base for hostile
supplies Of petrol or hostile wireless.

1T was then that the cabinet Of Vienna,
perhaps fearful Of the consequences Of
its irreconcilability, and feeling the
necessity Of taking a step backward. de-
clared for the first time that 1t was
ready to discuss with Europe the funda-
mental principle Of its difference with

work in the direction Of reciprocal con-
cessions seemed to warrant a last hope
Of peace, an irreparable movement on the
part Of Germany promised to endanger
definitely the results acquired with %
violent solution.
lat the beginning Of the conflict this
power, Germany. had commenced mill
tary preparations. and she continued
them with feverish haste. At the very
moment when her representatives in
foreign countries were protesting her
pacific intention. the a1st Of July In
Russian government an ultimatum CIV
ing Russia twelve hours in which to
demobtlize on her Austrian as well as
on her German frontiers. The alter
native was that Germany would mob
ilize. This was done at q time when
the Russian government had given evi.
at time when Austria Hungary was
showing herself disposed to discuss
with Europe the question OF her note
to Servia.
There could be no doubt as to tho
answer to such an ultimatum. From
that moment the cause of peace was
definitely lost. the reason being this
precipitate action on the part Of Ger
many. The obligations OF alliances
had to be observed. and the great pow
ers were drawn into the fatal conflict.
