Vienna. Austria, July 27 A com munication issued by the Austro-Hun garian foreign office today sets forth ihe Austrian view of tho Servian re ply to Austria's note demanding the cessation of the Pan-Servian agitation and the punishment of those con oerued in the assassination at Sarnyp vo of Archduke Francis Ferdinand and his consort. The communication alRO gives the reasons for Austria's dissatisfaction with Servia's repiy It follow "The object of the Servian note Is to create the false impression that th Servian government is prepared in creat measure to comply with our dema nds. Note Filled With Dishonesty. "As a matter of fact, however Ser via s note is filled with the spirit of dishonesty which clearly lets It be seen that thp Servian government is not seriously determined to put an end to the culpable tolerance it hith erto has extended to Intrigues against Hip Austro-Hungarian monarchy. 1 "The Servian not contains such i far-reaching reservations and limita tions not only regarding tne general I principles of our action, but also in I regard to the individual claims we I have put forward that the conces sions actually made by Servla be come insignificant. 1 "In particular our demand for the participation of the Austro-Hungarl-! J an authorities in investigation to de-1 led accomplices in the conspiracy on Servian territory' has been rejected. I while our request that measures be taken against that section of the Ser vian press hostile to Austria-Hungary ha6 bpen declined and our wish that I the Servian government take the I necessary measures to prevent the dissolved Autrophobe associations (onlinuing their activity under an other name and under another form, has not even been considered Since the claims iu the Austro Hungarian note of July 23 regarding 'r Hie attitude hitherto adopted by Ser- la. represent the minimum nf what is necessary for the establishment of permanent peace with the southeast ern monarchy, the Servian answer must be regarded as unsatisfactory Premature War Movements. "That the Servian government it self is conscious that Its note is not sere ptable to us. is proved by the 2 circumstances that it proposes at the end of the note to submit the dispute i0 arbitration an invitation which is thrown Into its proper light by the fact that three hours before handing , in the note a few minutes before the L expiration of the time limit the mo- - billzation of the Servians took place" It was pointed out here today that Austria-Hungary being a signatory to 0. the Becond Hague convention would be obliged formally to declare war, f but as Servla did not sign that con- ,n vention, such a declaration might per M haps be regarded as unnecessary in IB this Instance. St. Petersburg. July 27 In spite 'u of the general unfavorable symptoms in the situation between Austria-Hun-tt gary and Servia and of the effect pro- duced by the arrest in Hungary of la General Radomir Pugik. chief of the rf Servian general staff, a better fee! jfi ing was noticeable here today ns the at rpsult of yesterday's diplomatic con ft versations. It 1b understood that the long intei view between Scrgius Sazonoff. the RusElan foreign minister and the Aus- nt trian ambassador especially was re- ei sponsible for this improvement of ert sentiment. fof The fact that Vienna does not re fuse to discuss the points at issue Is (Of interpreted as a happy symptom, al- M though Russia' attitude has been very $ firm since the beginning of the cri sis. The Russian government is anxious to negotiate with Vienna in order by such a discussion to allay id any act which might prove irrepar- able It is still hoped here that the voice of Berlin may be heard at the oppor tune moment In the interest of peace Belgium Army Mobilizing.
