Berlin, Dec. 5.-(Nia London). The ne

slams for an armistice are extending to
the Rumanian troops the war Office an
nounces.
Unofficial dispatches from Berlin on
Monday carried a rumor current there
that the Rumanian government had
sounded Berlin and Vienna regarding con.
ditions for an armistice and peace pour
parlers. There has been no confirmation
of this from non-German sources.
Rumanan troops on their battle line
have been dependent upon Russian sup
port of their flank to the north and a
cessation OF hostilites by Russia would
leave them exposed to separate attack
with almost inevitable development and
destruction, isolated as Rumania is from
her western allies.
