Austria Declares War
 On Japan to Aid Ally

Vienna, Aug Austria de- clared war against Japan yester- day. Formal declaration was served on the Japanese Ambassa- dor and he received his passports and will leave for Rome as, soon as possible.
 The declaration of war was de cided on at a council of the Min istry at which the action of Japan in declaring war on Germany was discussed. Under the terms of the treaty of alliance with Germany it was agreed that there was nothing for Austria to do but formally to declare war, inasrnuch as in this instance Japan was the aggressor and had raised the issue. The Emperor has sent orders to the Austrian cruiser Kaiserin Eliz- abeth, now in Chinese waters, to join the German fleet and aid them in their light against the Japanese. The cruiser will start for Kiao-, chow at once. 7
