WILSON IS FIRM IN REFUSAL
TO CONCEDE FIUME TO ITALY:

London, Jan. 15.-In commenting upon

friday, persons in touch with the Italian
Mission declare the premier was sur
rised at Mr.. Wilson's attitude, says the
Paris correspondent Of the Daily Mail
s.Prcsident Wilson was firm in his re-
usal to recognize italian claims beyond

Minister Sonnino, Of Italy, demands an

Unwilling to give way.
While the majority Of the inhabitants
of Fiume are Italian, that port is the
natural outlet for the Austrian Slays.
1t is, therefore, claimed that few
thousand Italians in Fiume are not to be
balanced against the needs for sea
outlet for millions of SIavs. 1T il pointed
out that the commercial necessities Of
the Jugo-Slays demand an outlet to the
Adriatlc and that, if Italy ignores those
necessities, she may incur the enmity of
those populations and create a new
danger 70 the peace Of Europe It is
supposed that President Wilson does not
consider that Fiume, as free port in
Italian hands. would meet the needs OF
the o-Slays."

has been made that decision has
been rendered in the famous Schmed-

the plaintiff for new trial has been
turned down.
The appeal was made before nm

on the part of attorneys representing
either side. The motion for new trial
was made on the grounds OF error OF

with the result that II verdict was CIV

by Judge Mccall undoubtedly ends the
