nouncement made that an armistice Of
one week had been arranged between

the British, Italian and Russian consuls.
MIR. Curzon added that the consul had
done his best TO calm the Christians,
intimating 10 them that the solution of
the Cretan troubles depended on the
great powers. Though il appears he
made great impression, the dispatches
OF the consul further stated the ar
mistice would not suffice To save the
