Nicholas issued TODAY a nanifas+o

feiated hs faith and blood to the Slav
peoples and faithful to her historical
TRADITIONS, has ever regarded her fate
With indifference.
Austria Knew That Her Terms
Would Be Rejected by Servians
But the ffaternal sentiments of
the Russian people for the Slavs have
been awakened with perfect unanm-
lty and extraordinary force in these
last few days when Austria Hungary
knowingly addressed to Servia claims
unacceptable for an independent
Ststte.-
Having paid no attention to the
pacific and conciliatory reply of the
Servlan government and having re-
jected the benevolent intervention of
Russia. Austria Hungary made haste
to proceed to an armed attack and
began to lombard Belgrade, an open
place..
Russia Was Forced to Take
Hand in War Austria Began
Forced by the situation thus Gre
ated to take necessary measures of
precaution, we ordered the army and
navy put on war footing, at the
same time using every endeavor to
obtain a peaceful solution.
Pour parlers were begun amid
friendly relations with Germany and
her ally Austria, for the blood and
the property of our subjects were
dear to us.
Contrary to our hopes in our good
neighborly relations of long date and
disregarding our assurances that the
mobilization measures taken were in
pursuance of no object hostile to her,
Germany demanded theirN immediate
cessation. Being rebuffed in this
demand, Germany suddenly declared
war on Russia.
To-day it is not only the protec-
ton of country related to us and
unjustly attacked that must be ac-
corded but we must safeguard the
honor. the dignity and the integrity
of Russia and her position among
the great powers.
All Faithful Subjects Will Rise
And Defend Their Beloved Czar
I'VE believe unshakably that our
faithful subjects will rise with unan-
unity and devotion for the defense of
Russian sovereignty. that internal
discord will be forgotten in this
threatening horr, that the unity of
the emperor with his people will be-
come still more close and that Rus
sa, rising like one man, will repulse
the insolent attack of the enemy.
with a profound faith in the JUS
tice of our work and with a humble
hope in omnipotent Providence, in
prayer we call Gods blessing on holy
Russia and her valiant troops.
