KING PETER ARRIVES
IN ITALY FRUSTRATED
Serbian Ruler still Hopes To- Win
Back Country and Dictate
Terms OF Peace.

ROME. edo. 22-It is announced
that King Peter of Serbia arrived
Tuesday at Caserta, italy. about 20
miles holth of Naples. He is ac-
cOmpanied by Premier Pachitch.
Great numbers of Serbian refugees
of all classes. including cabinet min
listers, deputies. writer's and artists,
are arriving in Italy at the ports OF
Bari. Brindisi. Messina and Catania.
King Peter is said to be almost
Frustrated. IL is his intention, how
ever, if his strength permits. to go
10 the front TO meet King Victor
Emmanuel and express to him the
gratitude Of the Serbian nation for
Italy's sympathy, hospitality and as
sistance. He still hopes. with the
support of the allies to reconquer his
country and dictate terms of peace
from Sofia.
All the SerbianS arriving in Rome
declare that their ruin was due
chiefly TO the insistence OF the allies
that they wait for diplomatic nego-
tiations instead of attacking Bull
garia before the latter was ready.
This delay. they say. caused not
only their defeat, but the ruin of
their country.
Serbian staff officers say the sit
uation might still have been saved
had only one army corps of entente
troops arrived in time TO aid the
Serbians at Nranya. In proof Of this
they point 10 the fact that the Ser
bians while withdrawing took 10000
prisoners. half of whom died from
typhoid epidemic during the retreat.
