The sinking In this manner of the

of more thtyii 100 American lives pre
cipitated a request upon the part of
the United States that such practices
insofar as the might menace Ameri
cans, be stopped.
War Mann s Up
rrinzip's crime was committed on
June 28. An Investigation disclosed
what was alleged to Im? proof that the
assassin was the tool of a group of(
Serbians. On July 2:i,_ after consider- .
able correspondence and negotiations,
an ultimatum was s*Mit to Serbia
by the Austro-liungarlan government,
which Serbia declined to meet. A week
idter a general mobilization of Russian '
troops along the (ierman bonier was-'
ordered and the following day Germany j
declared war on Russia. The news of
that eveut was followed in a few hours
by the announcement that a general (
mobilization had been ordered fTy the
French cabinet.
On August 2, G?rman troops entered '
Luxemburg and Germany demanded ,
free passage through Belgium to the ,
French frontier. This was refused ami
two days later Great Britain dispatch- (
eu to Germany an ultimatum .demand
ing that' the neutrality of Belgium be |
maintained. The ultimatum rejected,
German forces attacked Liege. On the
same day President Wilson Issued a
proclamation of neutrality.
The following day saw the declara
tion by Great Britain of a state of war
with Germany, and two days later the
Germans entered Liege as the French
Invaded southern Alsace. .
These events were quickly followed (
by an affirmation on the part of Italy,(
for her neutrality, by an Austrian in
vasion of Serbia and by the sending by
Japan of ah ultimatum to Germany.
This had to do with the German pos
wsattsir of KtaQ-cnovr ofwin^tr Tsrajr;
