100 years ago this week: The news has been dominated by concern over the continuing
crisis regarding Ulster and the Amending Bill which had its third reading in
the House of Lords and is about to have its second reading in the House of
Commons. The King is inspecting the
naval fleet which has been placed on a war footing as part of a planned
exercise. Reports are being received
from the Vienna correspondent that relations between Austria-Hungary and Servia
are becoming strained and by the end of the week, Servia is described as being
on “half its war footing”.
