events a Austr x ination of Archduke Francis Fer-| he | dinand, and his wife, the Duchess | led of Hohenberg, The note, 'which was «presented by the Austrian Minister declared that events of recent years particularly the assassination at Sarajevo on June 28, have shown 8 subversive movement in Servia for the purpose of detaching part of Austria-Hungary. The note says that the movement originated un- der the eyes of the Servian Gov- ernment, and led to various acts of terrorism. Servia did not at- tempt to repress the movement. It allowed the criminal machinations "of various societies, tolerated un- restrained language in the news- papers, allowed officials to share in the subversive agitation and other- wise 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 June '28 proved its fatal conse- quences to the whole world. The note asserted that the depositions and confessioons 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 Sopa of the acts which po By Ferdinand and the Duchess. of Hohenberg at Sarajevo on June 98] - has fallen like a bombshell in diplo- |: matic and all other quarters here} It goes without saying that At 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' 8 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 post on Saturday evening, | do, and Austria will forthwith prepare to enforce her demands. were to be the only 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 oonsequences to the peace of the Continent which it is impossible to foresee. PICTURE OF THE DOMINION. Advertisement of Water Power of Canada at Panama Fair. A despatch from Ottawa says: Canada's water power resources will be advertised at the Panama Exposition in Ban Francisco by a series of models, typical of power plants from the Atlantic to the Pa- cific. - These will be arranged in a semi-circle in the Canadian build- ing, in front of a great Canadian painting.
