RESPOND To CALL
FOR ARMY NURSES
Women Of All Glasses Register
at Vienna Hospitals.

Vienna, Aug. 1.-The tension in
Vienna is greater than at any time
since the start of the international
crisis. although nothing definite had
occurred to change the situation for
the worse.
The Neue Freie Presse insists that
Russia must cease to procrastinate
and must say distinctly and unreserv.
edly what she intends to do.
Popular enthusiasm in connection
with the war against Seryia shows no
sign of abatement. An appeal for Red
Cross nurses met with an immediate
response from 1000 women and girls
belonging to all classes of society,
who called at the hospitals and regis
tered their names.
Archduchess Maria Theresa applied
to Emperor Francis Joseph for per
mission to be enrolled as Red Cross
nurse.
Vienna is overfiowing with people
who have deserted the summer re
sorts and are Fastening to their
homes.

Berlin. Aug. 1.-The day passed
without a break in the heavy war
cloud over the European horizon and
there was no relief to the almost
despairing uncertainty existing in the
German capital Excitement contin-
ues TO increase. 1t had been general
ly expected that the day would bring
the decision for peace or war and
when a decree was promulgated pro-
claiming martial law and consequent
military government all began to
think that armed conflict could be the
only outcome.
Government officials. however. re-
frain from making any definite decla-
ration, saying they preferred to wait
till all the resources of diplomacy
had been exhausted. Ii was we'll un
derstood that the issue of an order
for the mobilization of the German
forces would be tantamount TO q
declaration Of war and ii was decid
ed TO postpone this action until the
last possible moment in which there
was a raw of hope for peace.
1t is admitted that the situation has
become worse during the last twenty
four hours. but the fact that botf
Germany and France issued officia
denials of their intention to mobilize
is regarded as a sign that everything
possible is being done to prevent ;
clash.

ST. Petersburg, Aug. 1.-THE popu-

awake throughout the night and the
streets resounded with the din of pa
triotic demonstrations. A quick sue
cession of special editions of the
newspapers kept the excitement at
boiling point and the vendors had a
hard time in supplying those anxious
to see the latest dispatches, which In
many cases were read aloud to the

Loud cheers were shouted for the EN-

London, Aug. 1.-Oficial announce

simism had taken possession of al
Europe. The hope that ii might lead
to a peaceable solution was grasped
with desperation, but the news was
Offset later by the proclamation OF
martial law in Germany, which was
regarded as a preliminary to the
mobilization of the German forces OF
war.
Everybody then seemed to settle
down TO await the news that the
great European powers had decided
to engage in a struggle for suprem-
acy. There was nothing to give the
public hope that a general war might
be averted.
The precautionary military and
naval measures taken by the British
government are almost completed.
The prevailing public opinion here
is determination that England must
observe her unwritten obligation to
assist France in her difficulties. with
Germany, but a small body of radicals
continues to utter objections to Eng
lands involving herself in the quar-
rels of the continental powers.
Encounters Are Reported.
Dispatches from Nish. in Servia, and
from Vienna told of encounters be
tween Austrian and Servian troops or
the frontiers, but authentic details o
the fighting were lacking. 1t seem!
certain that conflicts between the
frontier guards have occurred, bu
military men here point out that the
stories of fighting. with heavy los:
such as that said to have occurred a
Fotcha, are absurd, as it would b.
impossible for the Servians in thu
time at their disposal to cross tn
Drina and advance twenty mile
