VIENNA SURE WAR TO COME
Hostilities Regarded by Public Of
Capital as Almost Certain.
SERvIAN ARMY TO MOBILIZE
Denomination Held Throughout
Demonstrations Held Throughout
POpuIace with the Cow
eFnment.

VIENNA, July 26-Diplomatic relations
between Austria Hungary and Servia
were formally broken off last night. War
is regarded by the public as almost a
certainty.
The Servian government waited until
the last moment left 1t by the terms of
the note. and only ten minutes before the
hour Of 6, when the Austro-H Hungarian
ultimatum expired, did the Servian
premier appear at the legation and pre-
sent his governments reply to the
Austrian minister. Baron Giesl Won
Gieslingen.
No details of the tenor of the reply
have been revealed here, but the terse
statement was made that it was 'un-
satisfactory"
Leave the Capital.
Immediately upon receiving the note
the Austrian minister informed the for
eign office and diplomatic relations were
broken off Half AN hour later the min
lister and his staff with their families
had boarded a train for Austrian terri
tory. The train was in readiness to de-
part as an unfavorable reply to the Aus
trian demands had been expected.
According to messages received here,
the mobilization of the servian army was
ordered at 3 O'Clock in the afternoon.
King Peter, who had hurriedly returned
to Belgrade when the Austrian ultimatum
was announced, left the capital this aft
ernoon on a special train with the prin-
cipal members OF the government, in the
realization that the Austrians could cap
ture Belgrade without difficulty. The
temporary seat OF the government will
be established at Kraguyevatz.
Fight for Papers.
The portentious news OF Servias de-
termination was made known TO the pub
lie by extra editions of the evening pa
pers and at o'clock tonight half the
population OF the city seemed to be on
the streets. They fought eagerly for the
papers and professions were formed
which marched through all the thor
oughfares, singing national hymns and
cheering for Emperor Francis Joseph
/ Emperor Wilhelm and the army.
Everywhere throughout the country
similar demonstrations are being held

LONDON, July 26.-The darkest
war cloud which has appeared on
the European horizon since Germany
sent warships to Agadir, in 1911, has
arisen within forty-eight hours.
The Servian government has re-
fused to comply with Austria's de-
mands, the most humiliating ever
asked of an independent nation, for
the expiation of the Sarayevo muir
ders for which Austria holds anti
Austian conspiracies in Servia re-
sponsible and for guarantees OF flu
ture good behavior.
At $50 last night when the Austro- Hun
garian ultimatum expired. the Servian
premier handed to the Austrian minister
at Belgrade, Servia's reply. The min
lister Immediately severed diplomatic re-
lations and started for home.
All Or Nothing.
The contents of the note have not been
revealed, but the Servian legation In
London understands that it accepted
some OF Austrias conditions and rejected
others Apparently Austria was resolved
to have the whole bill paid or nothing
The vita, question to Europe is whether
Russia will come to the rescue OF It's
little slav brother, involving the other
powers and making of the war a dread
struggle of Slav against Teuton for
European supremacy.
Reports from ST. Petersburg say that
the Russian army is mobilizing, but 1t Is
TO be remembered that Russia mobilized
several corps when Austria annexed
Bosnia and the German emperor, stepping
TO the side of his ally, as was said, in
shining armor;" put a veto on Russian
Intervention.
Austria and Servia are both mobilizing
but the silence OF all the dispatches on
the subject of military preparation In
dicates clearly that an ironclad censor
ship has been established in both coun-
tres.
Won't Defend Belgrade.
The servians nave decided not to at
tempt to defend Belgrade. the garrison
having already been withdrawn. accord
ing TO Vienna reports, and the seat OF
the government removed from Belgrade

Servia's refusel to humiliate itself tc
the extent its neighbor has directed was
not unexpected. But Serbs have been
proud since their success in the late
Balkan war and the government which
yielded to such demands as Austria's
could not last; even the dynasty would
be imperiled. Servia's little ally Monte
negro, seems determined TO cast its lot
with its cousin in war.
servian partisans abroad advance the
theory that Austria has made up its
mind to dispose of its neighbor, which
has long been a thorn in its side, and
has chosen to strike a decisive blow al
