Secretary of the Navy Daniels
yesterday confirmed the report that
American forces had been landed
on the Dalmatian coast Of the Ad-
riatic to take a hand in the trou-
bles caused by dAnnunzio's cap
ture of Fiume. This confirmation
was made in the following official
statement: &C., NJ q
s -on September s5 a nupsber Of
Italians Surprised and captured
Trau. DalB,atian port in. ne zone
assigned by the supreme council TO
be polieed by the Americans. A
small landing force from the U. s.
s. Olympia succeeded in recovering
the town and preserving order
there without bIoodshed. Serbians
were persuaded by Admiral An
drews. in command of the Olympia,
his flagship, from taking action"
The Italians referred to in the
statement are presumed to be
irregular troops which are adher-
ents of dAnnunzio. The statement
was not given out until the Navy
Department had conferred with the
State Department.
Supreme Council Orders
1t was explained yesterday at the
Navy Department that Admiral An
drews acted at the request of the
Supreme War Council, which in
cludes a representative of the Ital-
ian government. When the Italian
''irregulars" surprised Trau, Ad-
miral Andrews notified Admiral
Knapp. the American naval ad-
wiser to the Supreme War Council.
The council Immediately decided
that forces should be landed and
Admiral Andrews was SO instructed.
From the fact that no bloodshed
ensued. it is inferred here that Ad-
miral Andrews conferred at once with
the Serbian commander, whose troops
were about to attack and attempt
to retake Trau from d'Annunzio's fol-

FOES OF TREATY
PLAN TO SHEAR
WILSON'S power
Reservationists, Taking De,
feat for Granted, Plan to
Eliminate Executive.

A new reservation to the peace
treaty. the purpose of which is to
give Congress supreme control over
the selection and the duties Of
Americas representative in tho
league Of nations. is being consid-
cred by members of the Foreign
Relations Committee.
The reservation would take the
appointment of the American rep
resentative out of the hands of the
President by providing that the ap-
pointee must receive confirmation
at the hands of the Senate before
qualifying. 1t would also. it is be-
lieved, make it impossible for the
President to appoint himself to the
place, because the duties of the
Office would be so defined that
the President would be unable to
qualify for the position.
1t is proposed by the reservation
that no person shall be named to any
of the boards or commissions provid-
ed for by the treaty nor to the league
of nations council or assembly until
after Congress has enacted law de-
fininG their duties and prescribing the
powers under which they are to act
The reservation thus drawn is of an
