Servia's Principal Objection.
London, July 2S.-An official sum-
mary Of Servia's reply to the Austrian
| ultimatum shows that Servia express
ed the Willingness TO grant most of the
! points demanded by Austria in con-
demnation of the subversive anti-Aus-
trian propaganda.
The only condition imposed by Aus
tria which Servia was unwilling to
grant. was that Austrian officers
| should play large part in the inquiry
into the Saray evo report which cost
the lives Of the Archduke Franz Fer
dinand and his consurt.
Limits Representation.
| Apparently, Austria had demanded
that this inquiry be directed almost
entirely by it's own military men and
in declining To submit to this pro-
pram Scrvia said:
"Servia can only admit such partici-
patton by Austrian officials in this
| inquiry as would be i'm accordance
with international law and good,
neighborly relations"
1t appears further that Austria had
demanded the publication on the first
page Cf the Servian official journal of
"a formal declaration drawn up in
Vienna condemning and deploring the
| fatal consequences of the anti-Aus
trian propaganda, ana regretting the
participation in this propaganda of
officers in the Servian army; repudi-
ating any further interference with
Austria Hungarian interests. and Civ
| ing warning to all Scrvans that Sc
we're prosecution would he the por-
tion i'm the future Of any and all per-
sons taking part in such conspiracies.
- In addition to publishing this dec
laration in it's official journal, Servia
| further agreed To communicate it to
the army in the form of an order of
the day Scrvia also promised to dis
solve all societies which might be con
sidered capable Of intriguing in any
way against Austria,
Would Dismiss Officers.
| Another Austrian demand, To which
agreement was given, was for the
dismissal from the army and navy Of
officers who might be proved To be par
ticipants In any anti-Austrian move
ment and for the removal of civilian
officials similarly involved.
Summing up what Servia agreed to
and what it submitted for further dis
cussion, the reply set forth that the
lOnly reservation was i'm regard to the
participation of Austrian officers in
the Sarayevo inquiry, and even here
did not present a formal refusal but
merely asked further explanation.
Finally, in the event that the reply
was considered inadequate by Austria,
Servia declared that IT would take an
lappeal to The Hague tribunal and to
the powers which signed the decara-
tion OF 1909 relative to Bosnia and
Herzegovina.
