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

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.
