RUMORS OF BATTLES SPREAD.

From Milan, Florence, Naples. Genoa
and Venice come reports of similar
demonstrations. The interior towns
heard rumors all day Of frontier
clashes and naval battles in the Adri-
attic and poured telegraphio inquiries
into Rome.
When the cabinet adjourned an all
night session early today, IT was re-
ported that tentative draft Of either
an ultimatum or a formal declara-
tion of war had been drawn up. The
ministers reconvened shortly before
noon. At that hour 1t was reported in
government circles that no ultimatum
would be sent. but that Italy would
issue a declaration of war. The cah-
met, 1t is said. has completed the
final draft, which has been carried to
the King.
Issuance Of the mobilization order
was interpreted as a virtual act Of
war. 1t was pointed out in diplomatic
circles that formal declarations Of
hostilities came from Paris and Ber-
lin last August within less than three
hours after mobilization orders were
published.
100000 Called Out.
An army roughly estimated at be-
tween 100000 and 10000 is called to
the colors. To these forces will be
added 10000 carbiners. members of the
regular army, and a number Of Alpine
regiments not especially mentioned In
the governments proclamation. The
total numerical strength of the forces
thus thrown into the field will approach
100000.
According to best information avail
able here, Austria has an army of near
ly 400, 900 men already massed along the
Trentino and the Isonzo river. inelud-
ing two German corps. The bulk Of her
army, as at present distributed. Is along
the eastern frontier, where Italy is ex-
pected to strike the first blow. Com
paratively small bodies of Austrian
troops are blocking the two princial
routes leading through the Alps into
the Tyrol, the country itself affording
a natural barrier to an offensive from
northern Italy.
The Alpine troops undoubtedly will be
assigned to the task of guarding Italy &
