Servia Far Fresn Weak.
The prospect of war Is not regarded
here as childs play. The Servians put
100000 men into the field during the
Balkan wars. Both officers and men are
passionately patriotic.
1t is expected that Servia will at
tempt to hold the front along the Dan
ube and the Drina with only weak
force. while the greater part of the
army will be concentrated in the CEN
trail district, probably near Nish or
Kraguyevatz. and another strong force
in Novipazar, which will be destined
for offensive operations against Bosnia.

war has been issued. and 1t is believed
that none will be since Servia never
subscribed to The Hague convention.

deemed equivalent to declaration of
war. This action was taken Sunday,
the report that the Servian minister
had left Vienna Saturday having been
incorrect.
NJ. Jovanovitch will leave immedl-
ately. In his absence the Russion aNn-
bassador will take charge of ServinM
