THE WIN*RAM ADVANCE
JAPAN IS READS , : MOT
"�. NI+ P
ER
TO EN iMT $4R GRIAT DAME
;ends Ultimatum to GermenY Which.
le Merely a Pretext For Attack",
Ing That Country
Up= has sent an uitinattana ,to
Gerznptry demanding that she with•
draw leer warships and evacuate Mao,
Chau, Unless Germany unOonditions
ally accepts by Azigugt 23 Japan will
take action, •
The ultimatum is as foilowst
"We consider it highly important
and necessary in the present situ-
ation to take measures to remove the
causes of all disturbances of the peace
be the Par East and to safeguard the
general interests as contemplated by
the agreement of alltance between
Japan and Great Britain,
"In order to secure a firm and en.
during peace in eastern Asia, the
establishment of which is the aim et
the said agreement, the Imperial
Japanese Government sincerely be-
lieves it to be its duty to give the
advice to the Imperial German Gov-
ernment to carry out the following
two propositions:
"First—To withdraw immediately
from Japanese and Chinese waters
German men-of-war and armed ves-
sels of all kinds, and to disarm at
once those whish .cannot be so with-
drawn.
"Second -To deliver on a date not
later than September 15 to the. Imo•
perial Japanese authorities, without
condition or compensation, the entire
leased territory of Klee -Chau, with
a view to the eventual restoration of
the same to China.
"The Imperial Japanese Govern-
ment .announces at the same time
that in the event of it not receiving
by noon on August 23, an answer from
the Imperial German Government
signifying • its unconditional amain
tanee of the above advice offered by
the Imperial Japanese Government,
Japan will be compelled to take such
action as she may deem necessary
to meet the situation,"
Japan's ultimatum is regarded as
merely an excuse for attacking Ger-
many.
Tbat Germany will yield to Japan's
demand is impossible, and the in•
evitable result will be the occupation
of Kiao-Chau by the Jape and the
capture or destruction of the German
warships in Asiatic waters.
ARKS FACE TO FACE
Great Battle impending in Which
Millions of Men Will Engage
The conditions under wbich the
great battle between the Germans and
the allied forces wilt probably be
fought were made the subject of an
official communication issued by the
French Minister of War Sunday. By
its development and the nature of
the ground over which the battle will
be waged, the comnaunicatiori says,
this vast engagement will differ pro•
foundly from the battles of other
times.
"By reason of the abandonment of
the attack which the Germans plan-
ned against Nancy," says the Com.
munication, "our concentration has
been carried out with regularity and
in its entirety, and thus the whole
of the French army will battle with
the whole of the German •forces, with
the exception of those German troops
concentrated on the eastern frontier
of the empire.
"The violation of the neutrality of
Belgium has extended the Belgian
and French lines to the treader of
Holland. The next battle, therefore,
e111 b@ from Basle, to Maastricht,
with several mullion of men on each
side,
"It is. this enormous extension of
electives and ' of front, which will
characterize the battle, and it wiII
be profoundly different from all other
battles.
"When two 'adversaries engage in
battle along a front of from 20 tQ 30
kilometres (13 to 20 miles) the 'en•
gagement is characterized by two
features --it is rapid and immediately
decisive. With a front extending
over 400 kilometres (266 miies),••it is
not likely to be the same." It is ex-
pected that the battle will last for
eight or nine, days.
MENACE ON PACIFIC
Two German Cruisers Started in
Canada's Direction
The German cruisers Leipzig and
Nurnberg were headed north, steam-
ing at full speed, when last seen
north of San Francisco Bay, accord.
Ing to statements of the captain et
the steamer Queen, which arrived at
San Francisco on Friday.
The naval authorities at Esquimatt
requested that nothing be published
regarding the proposed movements
of Canadian naval ships on the Pacific
coast when questioned about the re•
ported sailing of the German cruisers
ei ziz and Nurnberg. It was officially
stated the Aigerine was quite safe,
as well as the Rainbow and Sheet
water. There may be a battle some
where off the coast,

tory is expected to bear the brunt at
the fighting.
An announeeiuent by the French
War Office admits that a French
army has enteral. Belgium and has
left Charleroi on the way to Sem-
bleu, near Namur. The Belgian fort-
ress of Namur will come within the
scope of the Germans forward move-
meat, and its defences aro being
strengthened In order to prolong its
resistance as long as possible. The
presence of Preach troops in Bel-
gium has been reported before, but
this is the t]rst official announcement
Of the fact.
Field Marahal Sir John French,
Commander of the English expedition-
ary force, is personally in charge of
the British troops on the continent,
and although the number of men
under his control is not definitely
known, it is genorallj" understood
that there are more than 22,000 in
his army.
At Liege the forts are still stand-
ing firm. The Germans on Saturday
withdrew their artillery from the
forts on the right bank of the River
Mouse and concentrated their attack
on the left bank. The German line
extends from considerably north of
Liege now, its immediate front be-
ing from St. Trond to• Hesselt, with
cavalry details still further north.
Diest and Aoreehot are believed to be,
the objective points of an attack by
several German army corps, which
are reported • as massing In that
vicinity.
A report from Paris says that an
entire division of 12,000 Germans sur-
rendered to the French army during
the five days' engagement in the
Vosges mountains, where French vic-
tories are said to be complete,
MAY ATTACK TURKEY
Triple Entente Angered by Breach of
Neutrality Rules
Since the purchase by the Turkish
Government, of the • two German
cruisers, Goeben and Breslau, the
chances aro that Turkey, unless she
• repudiates her purchase, will face
war with the triple entente—and, in
addition, expose herself to the hostile
intentions of both Greece and Italy.
The price which the Turkish Gov-
ernment is said to have paid Germany
for the cruisers in question is said
to have been $20,000,000. The buying
of the vessels is said to be in direct
violation of the neutrality laws, and
to constitute a menace to Greece and
Itaiy
Great Britain; France and Russia
already have forwarded a peremptory
demand to Turkey for the immediate
repatriation of the officers and crews
of the two ships. A report received
at Paris says that they were met out-
side the Dardenelles by Turkish cruis-
ers and safely escorted into the har-
bor.
BATTLE IN ADRIATIC
•
Austrian Fleet Broken up by French
Warships ,
A despatch to London. from Nish,
Servia, under date of Sunday, says:
"A naval battle between French
and Austrian warships began off
Badman. Austria, In the Adriatic, at
9 o'clock this morning. The Preach
squadron, coming from the southwest,
attacked the Austrian warships. Two
Austrian iaonc1ads were sunk, one
was set on fire, and a fourth fled
northwards toward Cattaro. The fight
lasted over an hour."
Von Emmich' Killed Himself
General Von Emmich, commander of
the German forces operating against
Liege, has committed suicide. His
Self-destruction followed the receipt
of news that the Kaiser had appointed
another general to supercede him.
Sentry Shot to Kill
Antoine Natter, a Freneh reservist
from Cape Breton, was shot dead by
a sentry at the Armories In Montreal
on Friday. Natter did not under.
stand the soldier's orders to move on
and refused to budge.
