Great Powers Expect to Be Unable to Remain Out of
 Conflict.
A R MI ES MARCHING
EMgiaE l, Germany and Italy Continue Efforts to LOcaIiZe War, But Action of Russia Thought to Presage
 General Conflict.

London, July 29.-While Ausrtia- Hungary was today preparing to strike at Servia, against whom she yesterday declared war, the rest of the European nations. although still hoping that the conflict would be To- calized, were getting ready for the greater war that must ensue in case Russia should intervene on behalf of the small Slav state.
 The state of the stock market in London today showed that the situa- ton was considered grave and the anxiety was added to by the issue of orders to the British fleet at Portland to sail for destination which was not revealed to the public.
 In the meantime dispatches from Vienna showed that the movement of the Austrian forces toward the Ser vian frontier were proceeding stead fly, but a strict censorship concerning the military movement prevented the exact destination of troops from reaching the outside world. All the Austrian and Hungarian railways were surrounded by police guards.

AT HOPE
 ID WRECK TRAIN
iron r Mountain Passenger Is Sent Into Open Switch by
 Unidentified Persons.

TeXarkana, July 29.-lron Mountain
 passenger train No, 223 was wrecked
 last night just as it was pulling out
 of the Hope station, and did not ar rive in Texarkana until about 7:3O this morning.
 messengers who came in on the train stated there were unmstakable
 evidence of a deliberate attempt to wreck it. The accident occurred just as the train was pulling out Of the yards, and had gain speed of some fifteen miles per hour. In pass ing over switch the tender split the frog and left the main line, derailing all tne coaclles following it, with the exception of the last Pullman.
 Examination revealed the fact some one had unlocked the switch, done away with the lock and placed a large bolt between the frog and the main line rail- The fact that the engine passed safely over the bolt and drove it down between the rails, thus remaining on the main line, is perhaps the only reason the entire rain was not totally destroyed, as the accident occurred on a hill ap- 20 feet high.
 It was state u niofnl1g by some of the passengers if the engine had eft tho main track it would have led he entire train into the ditch, and thus produced one of the most hor- rible wrecks ever occurring in this section of the country.
 As it was, no one was seriously lurt, though a couple of negroes and l white man claim to have received internal injuries, but parties examin- ng them claimed they found no evil fences of Such. However, every one 'n the day coaches received a severe haking up, which, together with the houghts of what might have been" will not soon be forgotten.
 Special agents have been hurried o the scene of the wreck and every ,ffort is being made to locate the ,arty or parties concerned in it's preparation.

Asuuith Talks War.

London, July 29.-Reports of the massing of armies in strategic posi- tions came from alll pionts of Europe today, but no actual clash of opposing forces was reported.
 Diplomats concentrated their atten- tion on efforts to confine the war to AusrtiaHungary and Servia, the two nations immediately concerned in the quarrel, and the attitude of the Ger man and Russian emperors was close ly watched, owing to their near re- lations to the countries engaged.
 Premier Asquith referred to the in ternational situation in the house of commons, but all the information that he was able to impart was contained in a few words.
 "The situation at this moment" he said, lis one of extreme gravity and I can only truthfully say that the Brit ish government is not relaxing it's ,ef- forts to do everything in it's power to circumscribe the area of conflict.
 "The' British government has re- ceived no information as to an alleged revolutionary outbreak in Russian Po- land"

Hope to LOcalize War.

Vienna, July 29.-Germany and Italy today continued their efforts ot To- calize the war declared by their ally Austria Hungary, against Servia and the efforts of all the European dis lomats are being directed toward the same object.
 No further declaration had been re- ceived up to this morning from Rus sia and that country also had made no fresh attempt to intervene in the controversy. The Russian ambassa- der to Ausrtia- Hungary, however, con- ferred with Count Leopold Won Berch- told, Austro-Hungarian foreign min ister, but it is understood the inter view was only for the purpose of ob- taining information.
 Nothing whatever is known here of the reported intention of Russia to make a declaration of neutrality in case AustriaHungary should re- nounce the idea of territorial eXpan- sion at the expense of the Balkan states.
 When the British ambassador here called on Count Von Berchtold yester- day to submit the mediation proposal put forward by Sir Edward Grey, the British foreign secretary, he was in- formed that the good intentions of Great Britain were appreciated, but that war had been declared already.

 "ln reply to your telegram, also letters of invitation for Little Rock labor unions to unite with Pine Bluff celebrating Labor Day in your city, beg to say that while there is a strong sentiment in this city for ac- cepting your invitation, it was fin- ally decided that it would be best to hold our usual parade and picnic i1l Little Rock. It was suggested that We hire steamboat and go by water to Pine Bluff, but low water in the river makes this impossible. We could hire special train, but would be compelled to pay regular round trip fare.

New York, July 29.-The consulates of ustro-Hungary and Servia in this city were busy places again today, and at an early hour crowds of men capable of bearing arms filed their names with consuls and secretaries in charge and were told to hold them selves in readiness to return to their native countries for active military service.
 A possible feature of the war. It was pointed out today, was the re- cruiting in this country of Macedon- ian reserves. who since the war with Turkey have come under ,Servlan rule. It was asserted at the Servian consulate that the Macedonians would respond eagerly to the call of the Servian king.
