frleS assuring tnem tndt RUSSIA must
assume the responsibility of rejecting
the proposition OF an armistice. Prus-
ia proves anew, says Favre, in rejecting
the armistice that she makes war for
rersonal aims merely, and not for the
interests OF Germany. Nothing can APP
rarentlv induce her to relinquish the
rrc,cxt OF the French refusal TO cCdc Eer
proviuces TO Prussia. She seeks our
destruction, and will be satisfied with
nothing less.
Favre then proceeds to lay before the
French Ambassadors detailed account
Of the negotiations with Bismarck for
an armistice and show what he regards
the unreasonable demands OF the Prus
sian authorities. He says: The Prus-
,jons, since the fall OF the Empire, have
twice refused TO listen to overtures for
reace emanating from France. Now,
however after Paris has been besieged
for fifty days without showing any signs
of weakness, Prussia seems disposed to
negotiate. The Parisians in cOnse-
uuence of the breaking out of rebel
lon within the city have created 8
government of defense which the neu-
lral powers of Europe ought to recog-
nize as rightful. Prussia has already
recognized that government.
Favre saws negotiations tor an ar
mstice were interrupted by the refusal
of the German authorities to permit
the reyictualing Of Paris during the
term of the armistice He says that he
argued with German authorities in
favor of the necessity and the proprlety
of such a concession-the armlstlce
would be no armistice at all, but con-
tinued war. The proposition was
therefore rejected and the negotia-
tons were then brought to an end.
because they clearly showed that Prus-
,ia was seeking to destroy the French
army and was equally as anxious
10 DESTROY the French people, else she
would not subject the non-Gombatants
Of Paris 10 the horrors of famine.
The neutral powers Of Europe had
demanded that an opportunity be had
Tor the assembling of the French
deputies in order that the question OF
peace might be considered. This demand
has been denied by Prussia or prac-
tcally denied by being clogged with
impossible conditions. The Prussians
charge that the absence of the French
Government obliges her to starve out
Paris is false. The Prussian negotia-
ton which began with fervent respect
for the French people closes with a
refusal of an opportunity to hear them
NJ. Favre concludes as follows: An
Armistice is the orly means whereby
an expression ofthe French people on
the consequences of imperial crime
can be eobtained. Prussia practically asks
us 10 Law down our arms as a prelmln-
a-y to the consultation ofthe national
viii. and the population of Paris, men
women and children shall starve pend
ing ,,- vote We call right and justice
to witness against them. Germany
hersel # consulted, will condemn them.
The Government will faithfully attempt
to rcnd,r peace fit is possible, and IN
that she will have the cooperation OF
the army of Paris. Meanwhile Paris
calls to arms to show whata great peo-
ple can do TO defend their homes, their
honor, and their independence. You
will make these facts known as the op-
portunity may arise.
