Servia was slow to act and Austria deliverea an ultima- tum, giving the Servian gov- ernment until 6 o’clock last Saturday evening in which to reply and accept the terms laid down by Emperor Franz- Joseph's government. The gist of the ultimatum was that Servia should dis- claim all responsibility for the plot; that Servia should promise to do her best to cap- ture and punish the conspira- tors and suppress the pan- Slavic activities of her sub- jects in Austria. Servia’s reply was unsatis- factory, the Austrian foreign office announcing that Servia so hedged its acceptance of the terms as to nullify the ef- fect of the demand. Following was the answer made by Servia, to which the dual monarchy took excep- tions and began preparations for war: ‘““Servia desires sincere and correct neighborly relations with the dual monarchy. “Convinced of the neces- sity of maintaining such re- lations? the Servian govern- ment will readily comply with all the demands of Austria-Hungary which will serve to suppress all criminal acts, manifestations and dis- order8 in neighboring coun- tries. ‘“Because the Servia gov- ernment considers it is there- by fulfilling the obvious duty of a civilized state the gov- ernment will in all sincerity do everything possible to prove its desire for friendly the dual intense relations with monarchy.” TRAIN NO. 80 KILLED MAN NEAR ORLANDO THURSDAY 80, alter Scott near Orlando.
