KAISER HAD A HAND
IN DEMANDS ON SERBIA
New Light Is Shed Upon Origin Of
Great Struggle in
Europe.
BY the Associated Press,

LONDON. July 2a.-An article charac-
terized as difficult if not impossible to
doubt. regarding the origin of the war
ls published by the Times. The writer
recalls a reference in the speech In the
refchstag last week of Hugo Haase,
leader of the socialist minority, as re-
ported in the Leipsiger Volks Zeitung
to the meeting July 5, 1914, as one Of
the things which must be explained be-
fore the origin Of the war is fully un-
derstood.
According to the Times informant,
this probably will become the most
famous date Of that fateful month. He
says a meeting was held at Potsdam,
those attending being the emperor, DIR.
Won Bethmann Hollweg, Admiral Won
Tirpftz. Gen. Won Falkenhayn. Dr. Will
liam Won Stumm, under secretary for
foreign affairs; Archduke Frederick of
Austria, Count Won Berchtold, Austrian
foreign minister: Count Tisza, premier
of Hungary. and Cen. Hoetzendorf
They decided all the principal points of
the Austrian ultimatum to be dispatch
ed to Serbia
Eighteen days later 1t was recognize
ed that Russia probably would refuse
to subbit thereto and that war would
result, but the meeting definitely de-
cided to accept that consequences.
The emperor then went to Norway
with the object, says the writer, Of
throwing dust into the eyes OF the
French and Russian governments Later,
when 1t became known that England
would not remain neutral, DIR. Won

SEVEN BILLION lob
IS UP TO congress
Must Find That Sum for War
in Excess of Years
Revenues.
BONDS APPEAR ONLY WAY

The administration. represented by
informed the Senate finance committee
| and the House ways and means COM
mittee that $1,000, 100000 in excess of
the estimated revenues of the govern
ment under existing law will be needed
for war purposes during the present
fiscal year. This huge sum must be
raised either through additional tax
alton or through the issue of bonds.
There is a strong sentiment among
members of Congress that nearly all of
the additional money needed should be
raised through the issue of bonds and
today that not more than ss.o6o, ooo. 900
will be raised by the war revenue bill
which is now pending before the Senate
finance committee.
The figures submitted by Secretary
McAdoo bear out the estimates of ex-
penditures for the present fiscal year
made by Senator Smoot of Utah during
Senate debate, which startled the SEN
ate and the country.
Over Fifteen-Billion Mark.
The estimates for the cost of the
war during the fiscal year ending June
80, 1913, exclusive Of loans to the al
lies. amount to s1o.755.so7, 900. The
loans to the allies will be considerably
increased during the year. 1t is pre-
dicted, and the total of war expendi-
lures will pass the fiftesn-billion-do dollar
mark.
Equipment and stores for the national
army. particularly artillery. will require
the lions share of appropriations under
the administrations estimates. OF the
years total of s10,735. s07, 900. the War
Department alone expects to spend 1864
10000, or $5,319. zoe, coo more than has
been appropriated thus far for its ex-
penses during the year.
The navy expects to spend 81, zoo, 000, 600,
of which $ess 600 remains to be ap-
propriated. The shipping board, whose
shipbuilding projects place it third on the
list. expects to spend s799, DOC, 900, of which
s350,00o, 900 remains to be appropriated
These figures cover the cost of the war
from July 1 last to June 80 next. They
do not include the money spent prior to
the first Of this month.

HOSPITAL SHIP FOR NAVY.
Ward Line Steamer Havana Taken
Over by the Government.

The Ward liner Havana. 6.3S1-ton
vessel, is to be converted into a navy
hospital ship and will be the first of a
fleet of three similar vessels and a
number of smaller ambulance ships to
be added to the naval establishment.
When the new vessels are available,
which means after they have been re-
fitted. the Solace. now the navy's only
hospital ship, will be transferred to
the group of ambulance ships. She is
too small for modern hospital purposes.
