The Imperial Rescript and Manifesto.


Ischl, July 28.

Dear Count Stürgkh:

I have resolved to instruct the Ministers of my Household and
Foreign Affairs to notify the Royal Servian Government of the
beginning of a state of war between the Monarchy and Servia. In
this fateful hour I feel the need of turning to my beloved peoples.
I command you, therefore, to publish the inclosed manifesto.
