DARK VIEW AHEAD. bTTTATIOX ON ACSTIUAN FROX TIER EXTREMELY CRITICAL. Russia Exp ctod to Take Stops Short? ly?Now Massing Troops on Aus? trian Roundary?Peace Prospects Seem Far Away. London, Juy 29.?The day's events brought no relief to the suspense nor any diplomatic achievement to re? strict the Austro-Sorvian war to thoso two nations. Tho feeling throughout England and the continental feeling, as reflected by the correspondents of the London papers, tonight are dis? tinctly more anxious than yesterday. Tho events have made for pessimism. Direct negotiations between liussia and Austria, which gave the other governments hope of a compromise, have failed. Russia is mobilizing against the Austrian frontier four army corps In each of four districts, consisting of 1,280,000 men. Russia's resolution to stand by Servia appears to be fixed. A manifesto by tho Russian em? peror making his policy clear Is ox* pected hourly. The diplomatic representatives have not yet despaired. All say thero yet Is hope and base their belief on the fact that Germany, Franco, Great Urltaln and Italy?the last two named most of all?do not want war and do not think tho Austro-Servian quarrel Important enough to justify It. St. Petersburg messages say Russia asked Austria for a direct ex? change of views and that Austria re? fused this offer. The refusal appears to have been to extend the much discussed negotiations which yester? day were considered In the chancel lories as the principal known basis for optimism. Sir Edward Grey, British secretary of State for foreign affairs, to whom all look as the foremost conciliator of Europe is, attempting, it is believed, to frame fresh proposals for a set tlement. The dlplomtalc world of London clings to the belief that a means can be found whereby Austria may satisfy Russia that she can at? tain her ends without recourse to measures which the Russian govern, ment and Russian pubic opinion can not accept. There Is tho greatest anxiety as to whether Russian mobilization will be confined to the Austrian boundary or is proceeding secretly against Ger? many. The first important fighting occur? red before Belgrade when the Ser? vians blew up a bridge across the river. The Austrians attacked and the Servians retreated to the capital, which, unconfirmed reports say, is be? ing bombarded. Councils of state were held today at St. Petersburg, Berlin and Paris. The British government continues the attitude that the crisis does not yet concern Great Britain save as a spec? tator and peacemaker. An official statement issued tonight says: "No measures have been taken by the military authorities which are of the nature of mobilisation. The only orders which have been given are of a purely precautionary and defensive c haracter. The naval measures are also precautionary. No mobilization 1 has been ordered." In the face of what so calm mind? ed a statesman" as Viscount Morley called in the house of lords tonight, the "possibility of a vast catastrophe," the politicians and the press have be i come sobered to an extent this coun? try has never before known. Not a word inciting to international or do? mestic hostilities comes from any quarter. The most bitter anti-Ger? man papers speak of Germany in terms of respect and friendship. C. F? G. Mastcrman, appointed chancellor of tho Duchy of Lancaster some months ago speaking at Ip? swich tonight said: "Should international war come it would mean a new story in the his? tory of civilization?a kind of death grapplo in the darkness, a cosmic catastrophe." The lit. ^on. James Henry Dal ziel, presiding at a great Liberal meet? ing here tonight, in which the Irish I^aborites participated, which was originally called to stiffen the hack of the government on home rule, said: "Tho threat of civil war in Ireland has been greatly magnified. It has a greater bearing on the present for? eign situation that the British pub? lic has any conception of." WARBURG CHANGES HIS MIND. Will ApiK-nr Reforo Sonate Ranking Committee. Washington, July 29.?Paul M. Warburg, the New York bariker, whose nomination to the federal re? serve board has long been held up in the senate, commlunicated with the White House today. Later It was an? nounced he would appear before the senate hanking commitlee which wishes to inquire into his qualifica? tions for the office. Mr. Warburg also telegraphed to Senator Owen, chairman o .he com? mittee, stating his appearance could be arranged. Senator Owen said to? night he would set a date for the j committee meeting when he learned definitely when Mr. Warburg would come to Washington. A letter from President Wilson urg? ing him to alter his position and a conference in New York yesterday With Senator Hitchcock led Mr. War? burg to reconsider his refusal to ap? pear before the committee. Members of the committee say they will inquire into Mr. Warburgfs flnan-l cial affiliations in this country, his! connection with Kuhn, Loeb & Co., of! New York and his foreign financial relations. General belief in the senate Is that tho committee will favorably report tho nomination and that it will be confirmed. CHARLES A.

The house had refused to accept the amendment. Indigestion is often the result of poor blood. The glands that secrete the gastric juices can? not get the right chemicals from poisoned blood, and undigested food gets into the intestines, causing fermentation, head? ache, constipation, neuralgia and rheu? matism, with a whole train of attendant disorders. These disorders make the blood worse. Until it is cleaned of poison there cau be no relief. Clean the blood and most all ills are cured.
