[Telegram.]

The White House,
Washington, June 29, 1914.

Deeply shocked at the atrocious murder of His Imperial and Royal Highness the Archduke Francis Ferdinand and Consort at an assassin’s hands, I extend to Your Majesty, to the Imperial and Royal Family, and to the Government of Austria-Hungary the sincere condolences of the Government and people of the United States and an expression of my own profound sympathy.
