HKHL1N. Julv 24. The crave noaalblll-
' ties connected with the strong Austrian
noto to Sen In, which virtually took the
form of an ultimatum demanding the
suppression nf the pan-Servian movement
and tho pun'shment of those concerned
In the assassination of the late Arrhduhe
Francis Ferdinand, are recognized In of
ficial circles here. It ts teallzed that fur
ther serious developments In Austro-Ser-vlan
relation! are Inevitable unless Ser
via complies with the Austrian demands.
It is believed in authoritative quarters
that the Servians will yield unless as
sured of BUpport from outside, and for
this reason official' eyes here are today
turned less toward Belgrade than to St.
Petersburg, where the council of minis
ters Is expected to settle tho question of
peace or war.
Germany Approves Action.
It was stated tliat Germany had not
been consulted regarding tho Austrian
note to Servia before its delivery, but that
it thoroughly approved the step taken
And was prepared for all the consequences
that might ensue from It.
It was pointed out that should Russia
tuka part against Austria, Germany was
fully prepared to draw the aword on be
half of Its oily in accordance with the
terms of the triple alliance of Germany,
Austria and Italy. Comment In h rsr.

sentative Humphrey, republican, of
Washington today attacked the proposed

and declared there was nothing in the)
transaction which demanded an apology
to Colombia.

railroads, that practically caused this
great nation to declare war on an Indi

vacillating blundering policy in Mexico,

of having this nation apologize for de
