The Justice Department filed suit today to force the Tribune Company of Chicago to sell five Florida publications that it acquired in 1980, an antitrust challenge that seems likely to have wide repercussions in the newspaper industry. Acquisition of the five papers, all of them weeklies published and distributed in Osceola County near Orlando, was said by the Government to have lessened substantially or to have eliminated competition for local advertising, in violation of the Clayton Act barring anticompetitive mergers. The Sentinal Star Company, a Tribune Company subsidiary based in Orlando, which publishes the city's only daily newspaper, was also named as a defendant. The subsidiary bought the smaller papers for $4.14 million.

The decision by Pope John Paul II to go ahead with his six-day visit to Britain and to add a two-day visit to Argentina presents him with some of the toughest political and religious challenges of his papacy. Although the Vatican has carefully billed the trip, scheduled to begin tomorrow, as strictly pastoral, the political impact of the journey in the face of the Falkland fighting is inescapable. The mingling of diplomatic and spiritual aspirations was made graphic last weekend as John Paul celebrated mass in Rome with leading prelates summoned from both countries. By implication, John Paul could be seen simultaneously as the sacramental mediator and impartial ambassador of good will. Many churchmen believe that the liturgical display of unity provided adequate legitimacy for keeping his appointments in Britain and at the same time prompted him to schedule a visit to Argentina.

Britain appeared to win a victory Monday in Brussels when seven of its nine Common Market partners agreed to extend indefinitely the sanctions imposed against Argentina in retaliation for its invasion of the Falkland Islands. But the victory may be expensive. The group's actions on less closely watched matters demonstrated how much the Falkland crisis is costing Britain in the group, both financially and diplomatically. Whatever the outcome in the South Atlantic, the decisions in Brussels on Monday could also impose a high political price on Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher in Britain.

President Reagan returned to California for a Republican Party fund-raising dinner last night in an unfamiliar role, as a potential political liability for Republicans in his home state. Mr. Reagan, who was highly popular with the state's Republicans in his eight years as Governor, still appears to command the loyalty of many Californians and still dominates his party here. But polls indicate that his popularity has declined substantially in California in the last year or so, and many Republican candidates who were enthusiastically using every opportunity they could a few months ago to link their candidacies to him acknowledged that they were now wondering whether the association would backfire because of the failure of the President to deal effectively with the economic slump. Brown Charges They Are Clones ''Every one of the Republican candidates are clones of Reaganomics,'' Gov. Edmund G. Brown Jr., a Democrat who is running for the United States Senate this year, said in an interview not long ago. ''They've cloned on to Reagan and his economic policies and it's going to come back and haunt them.''

For more than a decade, the New York State Assembly has pondered the merits of bills to require a deposit on beer and soda bottles and cans sold in the state. When the votes were counted in the Assembly Monday night, and the latest bottle bill was passed by a vote of 93 to 56, the battle, in the Assembly at least, appeared to be won. But within minutes, many of the same legislators voted for an industry-sponsored alternative litter-control bill that is inconsistent with the bottle bill. The twin votes, and the way individual legislators reached their decisions, say a lot about the way the State Legislature deals with controversial issues. The alternative bill passed by a vote of 85 to 61. Thirty legislators voted for both bills, and three voted against both.

In the Congressional debate over the Federal budget, which is on the House floor this week, the ''bottom line'' is the deficit: How much does Congress plan to borrow, rather than raise by taxes, to pay for the goods and services it wants to deliver to the voters? Because this red-ink figure has jumped up to 12 digits, $100 billion or more a year, it has become the single most closely watched number in the budget. A group of former Cabinet officers, in a paper issued Monday, warned that ''the Federal budget is dangerously out of control'' and could produce ''a succession of ever-widening deficits'' unless Congress acted swiftly. Yet it is also true that the budget deficit is something that Congress can control only with the greatest difficulty and luck, because it is the sum of the many other figures that add up to the spending and revenue totals.

International The likelihood of a British victory in the Falkland conflict was suggested by Secretary of State Alexander M. Haig Jr. He asserted that ''the British appear to be in a position to bring the war to an early conclusion'' and urged the British to be ''magnanimous in victory.'' Administration officials said that Washington had begun to supply the British with war materiel, and a senior Pentagon spokesman warned Moscow not to interfere in the conflict. (Page A1, Column 6.) Argentina appealed repeatedly for a negotiated peace in the Falkland war with the help of Secretary General Javier Perez de Cuellar. As the United Nations Security Council ended a fifth day of debate on the conflict, Britain called on Argentina to remove its troops from the islands. (A1:5.)

International British troops are poised for a drive across East Falkland Island toward Argentine forces in Stanley despite the loss of two ships in Tuesday's air strikes, Defense Minister John Nott announced. He said that 24 men had been killed aboard the two vessels and that about 25 had been wounded. Addressing a grim House of Commons, Mr. Nott said that the destroyer Coventry had capsized after being bombed and strafed and that the container ship Atlantic Conveyor, being used as a makeshift aircraft carrier, had been crippled by two Exocet missiles. (Page A1, Column 6.) The first report of key ground contact in the Falkland war was reported by Argentina's military command. It said its forces had engaged British units operating from their beachhead and had shot down two helicopters and damaged two. It was not clear which side had initiated the clash. (A21:1.)
