100 years ago today: The lead article in today’s Telegraph
hopes that mediation will still be possible in preventing war between
Austria-Hungary and Servia. Sir Edward
Grey has proposed holding a conference with the French, German and Italian
ambassadors to find some way of securing peace and the German Emperor agrees to
“mediation in principle”. It is hoped
that if the Kaiser is minded to find a peaceful solution then Austria will not
open hostilities. However there are also
unconfirmed reports of fighting on the Danube between Austrians and Servians
and reports that the Servians have blown up a bridge.
