 For this reason the terms of Aus tria's ultimatum to Serbia were made so drastic that hostilities were bound to follow.
 The delivery of the ultimatum to Serbia was delayed until after Pre- sident Poincaire and former Premier Viviana, of France, had gone to St. Petersburg, which would make it diff ficult for the Allies to arrive at an understanding to take counter meas ures.
