RENEWING THE APPLlcAT1Ns FOB ARMIs-
A Belgrade special Of the Times says
Servia Is krenewing her application for
the formal armistice OF one month. This
application isprobably made with view
to farther prosecution OF war under cir
cumstances more promising for Russia.
A months armistice means the suspen.
sion Of fighting for the winter, as the
hostilities could not be renewed at the
end Of November. The hiring
by the Servian Government Of two
hundred workmen OF the Imperial
gun factory Of Germany, and the fact
that Russian agents are buying all the
grain in Wallachia, show that Seryia does
not contemplate peace.

represents that there is little hope that
Turkey will accord an armistice. Tar
key is put on her mettle by the Russian

threatens thus to enforce the terms Of
peace. II she should, England and Aus
tria must stand by the Porte to resist
Russia's Interpretation Of the programme.
This Interpretation is practical dismem-
berment of Turkey.

bassador, whose return to Constantinople
is daily expected, will make inal effort
to induce the Porte to accept the condi-
tions, and should the Porte refuse he has

that the Turkish government is so ex.
asperated by the continued entry OF
Russians into Servia that they have
found it impossible TO accept the terms
| Of peace. The Sultan favored the terms,
but would have been deposed il he had
accepted them.
The Times special from Threapea says i:
II Is generally understood that il Turkey
refuses the armistice, England will be un-
able to afford her further diplomatic ser.
vice what ever may be the course Of sub.
sequent eyents.

tinople says: Il is asserted that the Porte
