GERMANY MAKES
DEMAND ON RUSSIA
Gear Given Twenty-four Hours
to Answer What Is Looked
Upon as Ultimatum. 3

BERLIN, July 3l--( Associated Press
by Federal Wireless What was prac.
tieally an ultimatum was yesterday de.
livered by Germany to Russia and 1t is
taken for granted that st. Petersburg
viii either ignore the demands made
upon her or return belligerent reply,
thus preeipitating actual hOstilities.
The German demands are that Russia
answer within twenty, four hours the
following questions: ..'.
"What is Russia s purpose is mobilz,
ing her troops on the German and Aus.
trian froltiers9
is this warlike movement directed
against Austriai ..,ra
" Is Russia willing to order stop.
page Of the mobilization" ., .
Such peremptory interogations, ac-
cOmpanied by time limit for reply Of
only one day are generally regarded as
tantamount to an ultimatum and il Is
not expected that Russia will regard
the note otherwise.
At any rate there was no cessation
of the military activity throughout Rus.
sia yesterday, according to the advices
received, while the evident intentions of
Germany are being made plain by the
rush with which the mobilization of the
German troops Is being carried on. The
regular army is prepared to move, down
to the last shoelace, and troop trains
are being loaded with men and muni.
tions of war at all the interior garrison
points. The garrisons along the French
border are being heavily reinforced, and
the same is true of the posts facing
Russian territory. The various naval
arsenals and supply depots are swarm
ing with activity.
Nothing is known to the general pub
lie of the whereabouts of the German
battleship feet, but it is generally sup
posed that il is being concentrated III
