Washington, July 2.-Issuance of a formal proclamation of neutrality in the war between Austria and Servia will be delayed by the United States

 Eventually the proclamation will be framed upon the document issued when Italy and Turkey were at war in 1911 over Tripoli. It will prescribe strict neutrality and warn American citizens they cannot expect protection from the
 United States government if they vio-

EXPECT MANIFESTO FROM
 RUSSIAN EMPEROR HOURLY

A manifesto by the Russian Emperor making his policy clear Is expected hour ly The diplomatic representatives have not yet despaired. All say there yet is hope and base their belief on the fact that Germany, France, Great Britain and ltaly-the last two named most of all--do not want war and do not think the Aus tro-Servian quarrel important enough to justify it.
 St Petersburg messages say Russia asked Austria for direct exchange of views and that Austria refused this of- fer? The refusal appears to have been to extend the much discussed negotiations, which yesterday were considered in chan cellories as the principal known basis for optimism
 Sir Edward Grey, British secretary of state for foreign affairs, to whom all look as the foremost conciliator of Europe is attempting, 1t is believed, to frame fresh proposals for a settlement. The diplo- matte world of London clings to the be- lief that means can be found whereby Austria may satisfy Russia that she can attain her ends without recourse to meas ures which the Russian government and Russian public opinion cannot accept
 There is the greatest anxiety as to whether Russian mobilization will be con- fined to the Austrian boundary or is pro- ceeding secretly against Germany.
 Councils of state were held today at St. Petersburg, Berlin and Paris. The British government continues the attitude that the crisis does not yet concern Great Britain save as a spectator and peace maker. An official statement issued to- night says: No mea asures have been taken by the military authorities which are of the nature of mobilization. The only orders which have been given are of purely precautionary and defensive character. The naval measures also are precautionary. No mobilization has been ordered
 In the face of what so calm minded a statement as Viscount Morley called in the House of Lords tonight, "the possi- bility of vast catastropne," the poltic- ians and the press have become sobered to an extent this country has never be- fore known Not a word melting to in ternational or domestic hostlites comes from any quarter. The most bitter anti Germany papers speak of Germany in terms, of respect and friendship.
 c. F. c. Masterman, appointed chan cellor of the Duchy of I.ancaste some months ago. speaking at Ipswich tonight, said: A
 Should international war come it would mean new story in the history Of civilization-a kind of death grapple in the darkness. a cosmic catastrophe"
 The Right Hon. James Henry Dalzield presiding at great liberal meeting here tonight, in which the Irish laborites par ticipated, and which was originally called to stiffen the back of the government on home rule, said
 ''The threat of civil war in Ireland has been greatly magnified It has a greater bearing on the present foreign situation than the British public has any conception of.''

a@4oa II, A bow sef black moire worn at the base of the throat completes the stun ming effect of this model.
 Other smart collars and chemisettes are fashioned of striped white-and- black taffeta and will be all attractive addition to the coat suit.
 The revival of ostrich tips ana plumes has ertended to the boa, and in the smartest shops are seen these lovely fluffy boas that seem not one whit different than those worn sev- eral years ago. Many of these boas are quite long, extending well below the waist line, and are without orna- mentation of any kind other than the plumage itself. Queer little ruffs that encircle the throat only are to be found in monkey fur. The fur is us ually found only on the lower edge or the neck ruff, the top being made or crushed ban d or pleated ribbon This ribbon fastens closely about the neck and ends in an irregular little bow under the ear.
