ICable Special to the Tribune.l
LONDON, October 23.-The kilograms from
Tours and Vienna, announcing the pro-
pOsaI, by England, of an armistice, are
thority for saying that the British Govern
ment concluded last week that the time
had arrived for making another effort.
They considered the moment critical, AID
felt 1t necessary to try som ething.
They have urged an armistice by making
common representations to Prussia anu
France, and asking other powers to aid
them in the effort. The armisttce is in
tended TO allow convocation to the French
Assembly.
1t is understood that Bismarck favors
such a cOnvocation, but insists that the ar
mistice must not involve the impractica-
BILE basis of peace.
While the overtures of Great Britain
have not been unfavorabiy received at
both Tours and Versailles, 1t has small
hopes of success. There is a chance, but
only chance, that the present effort may
be to produce the suspension Of hostili-
ties.
