EUROPEAN CRISIS EVOKED Amazing Thunderbolt From Vienna Caused Con- sternation in Diplomatic Circles A despatch from Belgrade, Servia, ays: Austria has sent a sharp ulti- matum to Servia in regard to cer- tain events leading up to the ass- ssimUion of Archduke Francis Fer- dinand, and his wife, the Duchess of Hohe-nberp. The note, which wag presented by the Austrian Minister declared that events of recent years particularly the assassination at Sarajevo on June 28, have shown & subxcisive movement in Servia for the purpose of detaching part of Austria-Hungary. Tho note says that the movement originated un- der the <-\es of the Servian Gov- ernment, and led t<> various acts of terroristi.. Serviu did not at- tempt to repress the movement. It allowed the criminal machinations of varioif. societies, tolerated un- restrained language in the news- papers, allowed officials to share in the sul>\ ersive agitation and other- wisp permitted the incitement of the Servian population against Austria The note declared that "this culpable conduct of the Ser- vian Government had not ceased at the moment when the events of J'ine :.'> proved its fatal cmise q lie nee* to the whole world. The note asserted that the depositions and oonfeatiooni of the perpetra- tors of the crime of Sarajevo show that the assassinations were hatch- ed at Belgrade, the arms and explo- sives with which they were .provided were given to them by Servian offi- cers and functionaries, and the pas- sage of the assassins into Bosnia was organized and effected by the frontier service. A despatch from London, says : Austria's ultimatum to Bervia in which she demands that there nhall bo a cessation of the acts which led to the Assassination of Arch- duke Ferdinand and the Duchess .of Hohenberg at Sarajevo on June 2tt has fallen like a bombshell in diplo- matic and all other quarters here. It goes without saying that it is re- garded as having evoked a most grave European crisis. There is some defence of Austria's action in view of the evidence of cumulative provocation on the part of Servia, but the bulk of opinion is that the unexampled acerbity of the language and the drastic, hu- miliating nature of the monarchy's demands is such that neither Servia nor any other independent country, even if insignificantly small and im- potent from a military standpoint, could possibly bow without surrend- ering its independence and aband- oning sovereignty. If Servia takes this view (and there is nothing as vet to indicate what her attitude will be), the Aus- trian Minister at Belgrade will leave, his jxjst on Saturday evening, and Austria will forthwith prepare to enforce her demands. If this were to be the onJy outcome, Eu- rope might watch the struggle with comparative calm, but it is felt that an Austrian attack on Servia would entail the gravest risk of a clash between Austria and Russia, with consequences to the peace of the Continent which it is impossible to foresee.
