DAnnunSio s Entry to Tara
Made Dramatic Spectacle
Striking Incidents of Occupation of Dalmatian
City Related by Eyewitness: Eloquence of
Poet Said to Have Stirred Populace to Frenzy

ROME, Nov. % tBy The Associated d
Press ).-Now that details of Gabrielle
q d'Annunzio's recent exploit on the
Dalmatian coast are being permitted
publication in the Italian press, after
the lapse of nearly a week, some
graphic accounts of the progress of
the insurgent poets adventure are
coming to light. One narrative by an
eyewitness who accompanied DAN
nunzlo on the expedition to cara de-
scrlbes the events Of the voyage and
arrival picturesquely and records some
characteristic utterances by the leader
of the band Of 1000 men who set out
from Fiume at midnight of November
l3, d'Annunzio's torpedo boat DESTROYER
Nulo leading the vessels of the little
fleet.
BY dawn of Friday morning, the
narrator relates. every one was on the
deck of the Nullo, d'Annunzio himself
on the bridge surrounded by his staff,
with all eyes strained to catch a
glimpse Of the Dalmatian mainland
At $3.50 O'Clock a dense cloud of smoke
was seen, indicating the location of
the port of Zara. Some on board
thought the smoke was caused by two
destroyers known to be there, while
others feared that 8 larger Italian
warship possibly was being sent out to
oppose them. Every one was anxious
and the sailors received orders to take
their lighting posts, the gunners stand
ing beside their pieces.
No Opposition From Milo
The port finally became clearly dis
tinguishable and one of two destroyers
observable approached the Nullo. The
lndomito. The sailors on the Nulo
wanted to greet it with welcoming
cries, but d'Annunzio ordered that no
one speak unless he gave permiss on.
Then came hail from the approach
ing destroyer, upon which all eyes
were intently fixed. Her commander,
speaking through megaphone. said:
"His excellency, Admiral Milo, asks
where you are going 2"
A pause which the narrator says
seemed never would end. and marked
only by the sound of the throbbing
engines, finally was broken by the
voice of Commander RizZo, in charge
Of the squadron, who cried back from
the Nullo:
81, Gabrielle d'Annunzio, commander
of the City of Fiume, am going to
lara"
"All right" quickly and distinctly
came the response. At the same time
the sailors on the destroyer 1ndomito
waved their arms and caps, shouting
at the top of their voices: "Viva
Italia. Viva d'Annunzio!
From the Nullo came answering
voices shouting "Viva Italian Zara!"
Banners were waved franticaly from
both vessels and the voice from tho
destroyer standing by continued, "Ad-
mlral Milo sent us to tell you he will
meet d'Annunzio"
Populace of cara Excited
The news soon spread in cara that
convoy flying the flag of Fume was
approaching the port. All the church
bells started ringing and the popula-
tion f1ocked into the streets

not believe their eyes and asked who
IL was that was coming, receiving in
reply the shouts of q hundred voices
crying the name Of d'Annunzio and
the Fiume volunteers.
Aithough nobody knew what Ad-
mlral Millos course would be, nobody
seemed to have the least fear Of a CON

A u ST RALIANS
OPPOSED TO ISLE
LAMENTATIONS
(By Associated Press)

Sydney, Australia, March tBy
aiD-Public opinion in Australia, as
expressed by some of the newspapers
of Sydney and Melbourne, is repre-
sented as opposing the idea that Au-
stralia wants to annex the formerly
German islands of the South Pacific.
They point out that there has been
misapprehension in Paris and else
where as to the attitude of the Aus
tralians on this point. For example,
the Melbourne Age says:
can unhappy and untrue picture
of Australia is beng drawn by the
Peace Conference. We are represent
ed as demanding German territory
war. A wrong impression may very
we'll be du to misrepresentation of
Australian opinion. Mr.. Hughes (pre-
mier) appears to have given the un-
fortunate impression that Australia
wants to annex the Pacific islands.
The only datum he can have is the
resolution passed by both Houses of
Parliament in November last, declar-
ing that the captured German colonies
must not be handed back to Germany
and that Australia should be consult
ed over their position. This is very
different thing from claim for an
neXation. We want, in fact, to have
as little responsibility for them as is
consistent with our safety. tt would
be a calamity if the were given to
Australia as gift. Australia is not
in position to manage an empire in
the Pacific. We have already far
more territory than we can populate
and develop"
The Sydney Daily Telegraph aho
disavows any desire by Australia to
"start a little empire" Of her own.
i"What would have suited US best
would have been the assumption of
control in the Pacific by Britain her.
SELF" says the Telegraph; cor even
by America, if America had seen her
way clear to stretch her idea of an
ti-imperial policy. Most Australians,
if they had been consulted would
have preferred not to take them (the
former German possessions near Au-
stralia) at all if security could be
obtained in any other way"
The Melbourne Argus declares that,
since the whole Australian people
were united in the determination that
the islands should not go back to Ger
many, Australia canont shirk the du-
ty of accepting a mandate from the
League CT Nations, but it adds that
the burden will be heavy, the re-
sponsibilities great, the cost severe,
and the return, except in security,
problematical."

COLORAD MINE
 REDUCES WAGES
Republican A. p. Leased Wirel

LEADVILLE Colo, April 3.-The Iron Silver Mining company, operat- ing the Mikado and other properties, has announced a cut in wages of 8 $l day. due, it is stated, to demoralization in metal markets. especially lead and zinc. The Yak mines. owned by the American Smelling and Refining com
 pany have also posted notices of a
 similar cut and other lead zinc mines
 of the district will probably follow
 suit. George o. Argall manager of the Iron Silver company made the follow
 ing statement:
 Owing to the low price of metals, the increased freight and treatment
 charges and the high cost of produc-
 tion. it has been found impossible to
 profitably operate this property The company cannot continue to mine out
 the best grade of it's ore reserves and at the same time. sustain the addi-
 tional financial loss that present con
 ditions impose Either the operating cost must be reduced or the mine must shut down. In order to keep the mine in operation we are compelled to ask the employees to absorb part of the bur den to the extent of accepting a reduc
 tion in wages of s1 per day to become effective May 1.
 fSedtlZlnS tIldt tue CuSI Cl INlilo still remains high, and that to reduce
 the amount paid to employees may
 prove a hardship 10 them, the com
 pany is reluctant to make any reduc- 1 tion at all. We cannot, however, carry l the present operating loss indefinitely.
 Since similar reductions to wage scales i have been found necessary and have been made in other base metal mining
 districts, and as many mines have been forced to close in spite of wage reduc- l tions, we sincerely hope that our eIn-
 ployes will agree to this plan. so that | the local mining industry may survlve | the existing crisis
 | It has been realized for some time | that reductions in the wage scale would | be made and a committee of business
 men have been securing pledges from | dealers in food staples that they would reduce their prices as much as possible l in order to enable the miners to live under the reduced scale which will be l SS.5O per day. There is no miners or l ganization in this district.
