Rome, June 26.
ERMS of the Franco-Italian armistice, published in Rome last night, provide that the French Fleet is to be concentrated in ports to be indicated and demobilized and disarmed under the control of Italy and Germany, except such units as the German and Italian Governments decide shall be used for safeguarding French colonial territories.
All warships not in French metropolitan waters, except those recognized as necessary to safeguard French colonial interests, shall be brought back to metropolitan ports.
The Italian Government declares it does not intend to use in the present war units of the French Fleet placed under its control, and that on conclusion of peace it does not intend to lay claim to the French Fleet.
