Berlin, July 28.--A. special dispatch from Vienna to the Lokal Anzelger says the Austrian army has invaded Servla, according to the plan of cam­ paign, . at Mitrovicxa, driving th® Servian troops before them. Mitrovicra Is 50 miles northwest of Belgrade in a direct line. Another report Is that the Austrian Danube flotilla of gunboats has cap­ tured two Servian steamers. AH the Swiss reservists here have been ordered home, according to the National Zeitung, as a precaution to maintain Swiss neutrality if a general European war develops. Wreck Belgrade Bridge. Vienna, July 28.--The Militaerische Rundschau repeats the report that the Servians have blown up the great bridge across the Danube between Belgrade and Semlin. It is stated ex­ plosives in the bridge were dis­ charged by pressing an electric but­ ton in Belgrade. It is also said Servla has withdrawn her troops on the Albanian frontier. Montenegro is reported to have mobilized its army. Great activity is being displayed In Loucen, the Mon­ tenegrin fortress, overlooking the Austrian town of Cattaro. King Nicholas and his government have gone to Podgoritza. Russia is declared to be taking special military measures at Vilna, Warsaw and Kieff. Fighting on the Danube. Reports from Hungary state that Servian troops on board a steamer on Shots were fired by a Cossack patrol across* the German frontier on the al­ leged ground that an attempt was be­ ing made to cross the border at a wrong place. Germans say that the group fired upon by the Russians were army of­ ficers. Much feeling has been caused by the incident. The local newspaper, - Grenswacht, reports that all the Russian freight cars have been withdrawn from Wlr- ballen, Russian Poland, and that in the interior of Russia freight traffic to entirely stagnated. Greece to Aid Servla. Constantinople, July 28.--The Greek minister here declared that in the event of war between Austria-Hungary and Servia, Greece would be compelled to dispatch 100,000 troops to the as­ sistance of Servla. Czar's Harbors Mined. London, July 28.--A special per dispatch from Copenhagen says several of the Russian harbors on the Baltic sea have been mined. \ -.. Czar 8aid to Be Arounwd.** London, July 28.--The Times' St. Pe­ tersburg correspondent telegraphs: "The cfiar has left St. Petersburg on a trip to Finland. "Now that matters appear to have become calmer, it may not be amies to quote a sentence used by the czar at the close of the grand council Sat­ urday: " 'We have stood this son of thing,' he said, 'for seven and a half years. It is enough.' Bids Germany Defiance. "Thereupon his majesty authorized the issue of orders for a part mobili­ zation, confined to the Fourteenth army corps, on the Austrian frontier. "At the same time the intimation was given to Germany that orders for the mobilization of the remainder of the Russian army would follow imme­ diately upon mobilization by Germany. Causes Change in Situation. "These wordB and acts are believed to have been largely responsible for the sudden change in the international situation. "The general impression in diplo­ matic circles Is that Austria gained so much by Servia's almost complete ac­ ceptance of the terms of the ulti­ matum that it is difficult to believe she would risk war with Russia and a European conflagration by driving Servia to the wall." England Calls Fleet. Portland, England, July 28.--The first fleet of the British navy has been recalled here by wireless telegraph, and is now coaling. The first, which comprises 28 first-class battleships and mobilisation of its principal army corps on the Austro-German frontier. The soldiers ordered to the front, pre­ pared for an immediate Invasion Of Austria, include the famous Seventh and Eighth corps of Odessa, the Sixth, Fourteenth, Fifteenth, Nineteenth and Twenty-third at Warsaw, and tentative orders have been issued for the gath­ ering of four other corps at Wilna, on the Prussian frontier. Paris, July 27.--The French cabinet held a 36-hour session considering what action it would take in the Aus- tro-Servian war. Orders have been given, however, which apparently in* dicate the mobilization of the army. PariB was wildly excited, and the cry of "On to Berlin! Recover Alsace- Lorraine!" was heard on all sides. Crown Prince to Command. Berlin, July 27.--The Tageblatt's Belgrade correspondent telegraphs that upon the order for a general mob­ ilization of all Servian troops the crown prince of Servia will assume the command of the troops and will attempt to hold Belgrade against the invaders. In the streets of Berlin the populace cheered the kaiser and demanded war. The kaiser left Bergen, Norway, on board a German destroyer for Berlin, where he consulted with his chief of the army, Count von Moltke, who hur­ ried to the capital from a cure resort, to direct the mobilization of the, Ger­ man troops. --/ Officially at Ws#. 1 . ^ Vienna, July 27--Austria isdfBeiktty at war with Servia, although there has been no formal declaration of war and will be none. Austrian officials explained that a formal declaration is unnecessary/for the reason that Servia never sub­ scribed to The Hague convention. The virtual declaration of war, how­ ever, was made when the Austrian for­ eign office sent his passports to M. Jovanovitch, the Servian minister, who was reported-^o have left Vienna Sat­ urday. M. Jovanovitch upon receipt of his passports made preparations for a speedy departure. Servians Blow Up Danube Bridge. It was announced here that the Servians, when they evacuated Bel­ grade to set up the seat of govern­ ment at Kraguyevatz In the interior, blew up the bridge across the Danube which connected Semlin and Belgrade. Russian Armies to Frontiers. St. Petersburg, July 27.--The Rus­ sian ministry of war has ordered the mobilization of its principal army corps on the Austro-German frontier.

M. Jovanovitch, Servian minister to Austria-Hungary, left for Belgrade, important Move Near. Paris, July 28.--A Vienna dispatch very important preparations are on the point of completion with a view to military action which will be ap­ plied against Servla at once. ^Sydtkuhnen, Germany, July 28.-- a large number of cruisers and tor­ pedo boat destroyera, had left here after the annual exercises and before the receipt of the admiralty's order not to disperse.

Actual War May Yet Be Averted. London, July 27.--While the armies of the great powers are either mobiliz­ ing or awaiting orders to mobilize, there is still time to keep the general peace of Europe, which has remained unbroken since the Napoleonic biu. Austria, although dissatisfied with Servia's reply, has not yet declared war and this leaves Servia a loophole. The Austrian preparations, it is im­ plied, are inten led to give Servia time to reconsider her reply. Meanwhile Russia is apparently willing to help se­ cure peace if Austria disclaims the in­ tention of ^dangerously weakening Ser­ via to celebrate the thirty-first anniver­ sary of the allied societies of Brook­ lyn a cable dispatch was ordered sent to the emperor congratulating him on the stand Germany had taken fn the present crisis. The dispatch expressed the hope that a happy solution of the questions involved would be found without resort to war. - SERVIANS IN DESIRE FOR NATIONAL UNITY Diplomat* of World Have Long foreseen That Struggle Wat Bound to Come.

Ttwt' Port and Fr^ '< tl.r .f Bo.nl.. While the immediate cause of Aus­ tria-Hungary's attack on Servia is the demand for reparation for the murder of the Archduke Francis Ferdinand and his wife, the duchess of Hohen- berg, the ultimate causes are the movement of the. Hapsburg empire toward the south and the desperate efforts of the entire Serb race to re­ gain complete national existence, Ever since the repulse of the Turk­ ish army from Vienna in 1683»the Aus- trlane have steadily fought their way southward, expecting ultimately to make their way to the Aegean over the ruins of the Turkish empire. Aus­ tria, like Russia, was not unwilling to see small buffer states set up to oc­ cupy the middle ground^during the In­ tervals of rest in her forward move­ ment,^and so most of the Balkan states of today came into being. Of the Servian race, which in the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries ruled a vast empire, extending over the western half of the Balkan penin­ sula and the eastern coast of the Ad­ riatic, practically all had come under Turkish domination In the sixteenth century. The Serbs of the hinterland of Istria and Dalmatia were soon tak­ en from Turkey by Austria, and Mon­ tenegro won its Independence. This left the ̂ Serbs of Bosnia, the Herzego­ vina and Servia proper, as well as of the Sanjak of Nov! Bazar and North­ ern Macedonia, still under l^urklsh rale. The Serbs of the present kingdom became autonomous In 1880, but re- Hungarian Army Mobilized.

But the Servian victories in Mace-f donia, and the Greek capture of Sa­ lonika put an unexpected obstacle in the way of Austria's march to the south. No more could the dual mon­ archy hope to inherit Salonika and the land between that port and the frontier of Bosnia on the flnaj down­ fall of Turkey; Servia was now squarely across her path. ; So the Balkan wars left the Servi­ ans confident of their military ability, elated by victory, determined on com­ plete national unity, and angered by Austria's continued hold on the north­ ern part of the nation and by her ac­ tion In depriving the nation of an out­ let to the sea. These wars left Austria Hungary with Increased difficulties in dealing with the Slav tribea, particu­ larly the Servians, now in her domin­ ions, and convinced Chat the march to the southward must be given up alto­ gether unless Servia could be put out of the way. To this were added minor irrita­ tions, such as the railroad question in Macedonia. The Servians wanted to add the railroads in the teritory con­ quered from Turkey to the state sys­ tem, but the stockholders, most of whom were Austrians or Hungarians, objected. Moreover, ,there was con­ stant friction in Bosnia, and the party in Servia which regretted the break- up of the Balkan league was inclined to attribute the discord between Bul­ garia and her former allies to the op­ erations of Austrian diplomacy. Thirty years ago Servia was a cats- paw for Austria in Balkan schemes, with Russia backing Bulgaria, but now the Servians can count on Russian sympathy, for their cause is indirectly the cause of the entire Slavic race In Its double struggle to be free from German rule and to fight with the Ger­ mans for the heritage of Constanti­ nople.

The consequence of this was a four- year insurrection against the Austri­ ans, the effects of which have never disappeared. The AuBtrians • have spent large amounts of money on the country, but never allowed it auton­ omy; and in 1908-9, using as an ex­ cuse the constitutional revolution in Turkey, which would require dele­ gates to the Turkish parliament to come from these two states, which were actually In Austrian hands, the Hapsburg monarchy formally annexed Bosnia and Herzegovina. Germany backed up her ally, and the protests of the Slav powers did not go to the extent of war. Meanwhile the Slavs of Dalmatia are under Hungarian rule; and here, as In Bosnia and Her­ zegovina, promises of local self-gov­ ernment have never come to anything more than words. Thus the northern half of the Servian race la still under the Austrian empire. Meanwhile the southern half was finally united by the victories over Turkey in the war of 1912. Not only did this reconquest by the Servians of the core of their old empire in Western Macedonia give a tremendous impulse to the longing for complete national unity; It showed the Servian nation that its military organization could be relied on for hard work. In the fall of 1912 the Servians mob­ ilized 260,000 men in the first three weeks, and later adJcu HZ,OCG to the number; and while tyeir losses in this war and in the struggle with Bulgaria In the summer*of 1813 were heavy, the Servian troops fought bril­ liantly and proved themselves efficient and enduring.

The dying coals of yes­ teryear, the soft flare of the embers our mothers used to have, where are they now when young love dreams its dreams? What castles may we hope a young generation to erect when its 10, 1903, forty army officers entered the palace, burst into the apartments of the king and queen and killed them. Details of the tragedy vary, but the best authenticated is that the couple died in each other's arms. The same night several ministers were slain by the plotters. The total number of vic­ tims of the conspiracy is said to have been fifty-four. At the time of the tragedy King Pe­ ter was in Geneva, living a secluded life, and, apparently, taking little in­ terest in the politics of his native land. Ever since (the terrible night of the assassinations he has denied that he had any foreknowledge of them. Nevertheless, suspicion has con­ tinued, justly or unjustly, to rest upon him, and it was some years after his accession to the throne before Great Britain and other powers recognised him formally as king of Servla. King Peter as a young man led an adventurous life. He studied In Switie erland ^and then went to the French Military academy at St. Cyr. He took part in the Franco-German war as an officer of the Foreign legion. For many years he Is said lo have engaged in conspiracies against King Milan of Servia, but for forty-five years he never set foot on Servian soil until he was elected king by the Serv­ ian /parliament. New Capital Easlsr to Defend. Kraguyevatz, to which King Peter has moved his court from Belgrade, is about fifty miles due south of Semen­ dria, on the Danube, and about sixty- five miles south-southeast of Belgrade. It lies on a branch spur of railroad about fifteen miles from the main line to Salonika and Constantinople, and is well adapted to defense. It is the third town In size in the old kingdom of Servia, with about 20,000 people. Its Oiily Eiipciiui B ai« Belgrade and Nisch. The town was the first capital of the principality of Servia, after its partial liberation from the Turks, serving as the seat of the Obrenovitch princes from 1815 to 1842.

Two women are known to fyave been drowned, and 15 children were res­ cued after a wall ofnwater from eight to twenty feet high had hit the city. That the loss of life was not heavier is considered almost miraculous. Cor- net canyon runs a precipitous course directly into the city of Telluride The town has a population of 4,000. A majority of the inhabitants aro miners and their families. Gregory Sanchez, , a miner who lives at the mouth of the canyon, has been ill and was not working. Sitting upon his humble porch he heard the roar of the torrent. He ran half clad into the town, warning everyone he passed. He was the means of saving scores of lives; for, soon after he had given the warning, hundreds of families were fleeing to the hillsides. All Telluride's 4,000 inhabitants are huddled in upper stories of bouses on the sides of the hills. Many of them know that their little homes have been wreeked beyond repair; but, with the stern heroism of the miner and his own, they do not complain. The physical loss Is greater than any In Telluride yet realize. Experts declare that the property damage can­ not be under $275,000. Not a residence or a business house in the little city, except a few cottages scattered along the sides of the hills, remains whole. The dead are Mrs. John Johnson, wife of a miner, and Mrs. E. E. Blake- ly, a jeweler's wife. Thomas Welsh, mine owner, is missing. When the flood hit the city proper there was no dearth of heroes. John Sands, teamster, and Harry Lyle, a miner, rescued 20 children who bad been literally washed out of their homes.
