Peace and Military Movements Amid War News
The dispatches describe planned demolitions at city gates to shorten fortifications while preserving the city. Reports note guards marching out and a Spitz entrenched camp to be demolished. A Vienna supplement proclaims peace signed at nine in the morning with cannon firing to notify the public.
