FRANCE APPEARS TO BE PREPARING FOR WAR

Paris, July 2S-The French government and people appear to be quietly prepar- ing for war, while awaiting Russa s de- cision.
 Troop trains are ready and army rep resentatives are on duty in telegraph. telephone and postoffices. The aNeras citizen has read in the newspapers ms general instructions concerning mopiiiza- ton; he long has had his orders instruct ing him precisely when and where to re- port for service.
 The cabinet met late today and re- ceived reports of the ministers. Any decisions were kept closely guarded. Abe Ferry, under secretary for foreign al fairs, is en route to Dunkirk tonight to meet President Poincare and Premier viviani, who will arrive there at dawn. According to what is believed to be responsible opinion there remains the pos. sbility that when Austria has occupied some Servian territory she will announce her intention not to proceed further, pu' to hold what she has taken until Servia gives competent guarantee that she VII observe Austria's wishes. Russia would not then be likely to intervene. It IS argued, except Automatically and negotia tions appear to be going on at present between Austria and Russia.
 On the announcement of war tonfgn' Paris became animated. There were patriotic demonstrations in the capita and many other cities throughout the re public. but there also were demonstra- tions against the war.

RUMOR OF ASSASSINATION PROVES TO BE UNFOUNDED

London, July 29.-A rumor Twas cur rent in Paris last night that the German minister in Belgrade had been assassi- nated Inquiry, however. disclosed that the minister had merely left, Belgrade for Nish.
 The correspondent of the Daily Chron- icle at Senllin telegraphed Tuesday that there had been no active hostiIities be- tween Austria and Servia beyond the exchange of shots between frontier and river patrols.
 The London morning newspapers fully realize the gravity of the menace threat ening Europe. Editoria.ly they admit that Austria is justified in chastisins Servia, but they argue that any attempt to destroy Servias s sovereign rights would plunge all of Europe into war.
 The Daily Mail thinks unless the war is localized, Europe is faced with the greatest catastrophe in It's historyi The Daily Telegraph considers the German Emperor holds the fate of Europe In the hollow of his hand.
