The poet: “A free entry into Fiume.” The general: ‘I must obey orders.” The poet: ”1 understand you would fire upon your brethren? Fire first upon me.” (D'Annunzio bared his chert).

Paris, Kept. 16.—Importance is at tached by newspapers to today’s meet ing of the supreme council of the peace conference which wdl be attended by Premier Lloyd George and Foreign Minister Tittoni, of Italy. Because of > recent events, it is stated, the pouncil i may defer final examination of the Bulgarian treaty. Gem i al Badoglio, deputy chief of the Italian army, which has been given bread powers to meet the situation which has arisen in Fiume, incident to the entry of the city by Captain Ga briele D’Annunzio at the head of a large force of irregular troops, has arrived at Fiume, accompanied by General Anios si according to advices received here. GOVERNMENT TO ACT. Remoe, Sept. 16.—General Badoglio, deputy chief of staff of the Italian army, has been armed widj full powers to tope with the situation at Flume since Captain Gabriel D’Annunzio, led forces, variously estimated to nupiber ■ from i.IOO to 12,000 men, into that city last week. According to latest advices, Captain I D'Annunzio,Is still in Flume. Detach- j merits ,;fttit)ffrom the- sixth army corps i to disarm Captain D’Annunzio's men ; refused to obey orders. This, accord- ; N ing to Premier Nitti, was "sedition,” ' the premier adding that he was “de- ! termined to act in a manner that would | avoid grave conflicts.” Reinforcements for Captain D'An nunzios forces are said to be marching on Fiume. General Ferrari, commend ing (he Italian forces on the armistice line, has been ordered to prevent the forces from joining Captain D'Annun zio. ■Signor Nitti expr^sed strong dejjre- 1 cation of what ho termed the mis guided deed of D’Annunzio, because, he said, it would propagate the belief, abroad of the violent imperialistic I spirit of tiie Italian people and result in Italian aspirations in the Adriatic j being met with strong opposition. “No , worse service could be rendered to tho cause we are defending and have de- ! fended,” ho said. 1 "Persons advocating these acts j against France and the United States, Witi out whose aid Italy cannot re ceover Adriatic territory are lunatics aud traitors,” Premier Nitti declared. _ - mItaly is 114 longer in a position to tol erate a policy of adventure without being brought into a state of anacrliy.” Tho offenders at Piurrie will bo pros iv ted, Nitti announced. Reports Claims Cost The Paris correspondent .of the Idea! Nazionafo, reports to liis paper that notwithstanding Foreign Minister Tit- I ioni’s v’orts, Italy's fight for her Adri- ' ulic claim has been lost.

He added that President Wilson might even vdo those concessions made to Italy in tho settlement proposed.
