EMPEROR SAYS HE
DID NOT WIT WAS
"It Was With a Heavy Heart That
I Was Forced to Mobilize My
Army," He Declares
Special to The Telegraph
Berlin, AUK. 6.—A bill has been In
troduced In the German Imperial Par
liament appropriating $1,250,000,000
to meet the expenses of the war.
Emperor William openfed Parlia
ment with an Important speech from
the throne of which the text was part
ly as follows:
"The world has been a witness of
the Indefatigable manner in which we
stood In the front rank during the
worries and troubles of recent years in
the endeavor to spare the nations of
Europe from a war between the great
i'owers.
"The greatest perils which had
arisen owing to the events In the Bal
kans appeared to have been overcome,
but then the assassination of my
friend, the Archduke Francis Ferdi
nand, opened up a great abyss.
"My ally, the Emperor Francis Jo
seph, was compelled to take up arms
fo.r the protection of his empire
against the dangerous agitation aris
ing In a neighboring State.
"In pursuing Its Interests the Rus
sian Empire stepped in the way of
Austria-Hungary.
"Not only our duty as an ally called
us to the side of Austria-Hungary, but
the great task was cast upon us at
the same time with the ancient com
munity of culture of the two empires,
to protect our own position against
the attack of unfriendly forces.
"It wap Ith a heavy heart that I
was compelled to mobilize my army
against * neighbor with whose troops
WEDNESDAY EVENING
mine had fought side by side on so
many fields of battle, and with sincere
regret I saw the breaking of a friend
ship to which Germany had been so
faithful.
"The; Imperial Russian government,
Riving' way to an insatiable national
ism, has stepped to the side of a State
which, through a criminal act, had
brought about the calamity of this
war.
"That France also placed herself on
the side of our opponent was not sur
prising to us. Only too often had our
efforts to bring about more friendly
relations with the Frtonch republic
come into contact with the expression
of old hopes and with long-standing
malice."
"The present situation arose not
from temporary conflicts of interest or
diplomatic combinations, but is the
result of ill-will existing for years
against the strength and prosperity of
the German Empire. v
"We are now pushed on by the de
sire of conquest. We are moved by the
unbending desiie to secure for our
selves and those coming after us the
place on which God has put us.
"My government and, above all, my
chancellor tried until the last mo
ment to prevent the worot happen
ing."

Japanese Premier Sorry
U. S. Cannot Mediate in
Great European Struggle
By AssociateH Press
Tokio, Japan, Aug. s.—The Japa
nese premier, Count Okuma, in an
interview to-day expressed his regret
that the United . States had not been
able to mediate In the European con
flict, which, if It continues, he said,
means the destruction of western civ
ilization. Japan, he continued, would
have been happy to Join the United
States in mediation, but her possible
participation in the war as an ally of
Great Britain made her an interested
party.
The premier said that Japan, if she
were compelled reluctantly to inter
fere, would protect the British colo
nies, but under no circumstances
would she send a fleet or army to
Europe.
England Takes Steps
to Prevent Possible
Increase in Prices
By Associated Press
London, Aug. 6. The authorities
are taking all possible steps to allay
public anxiety In regard to food sup
plies and to prevent unjustifiable at
tempts to artificially raise prices. The
Home Office to-day issued an official
statement to the effect that in addition
to the four months' supply of wheat
actually in the country or being har
vested, there were large consignments
of wheat now on the way here, much
of which was already near British
shores.
There was no conceivable circum
stance, it was said, in which a wheat
famine could arise, and accordingly
fear of a scarcity was groundless The
situation regarding meat was not less
satisfactory. "Normal killings of home
stock supply 6f) per cent, of our annual
-consumption." read the statement, "and
we are not necessarily dependent upon
foreign representatives of the balance
of our supplies, as In case of emergency
It could be provided by slaughtering
a larger proportion of our own Btock.
HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH
"This contingency cannot arise in the
present circumstances. There is now
an exceptionally largo supply of for
eign meat in cold storage and heavy
consignments are on the way to our
shores. Therefore no justification ex
ists for any rise in the prices of bread
or meat."
The circular concludes with the as
surance that arrangements have been
made with a view to controlling prices
so far as possible.
