PARIS, Sept. 21.-An agreement has
been reached between the Jugo-Slavs
and the Italians which seems to pave
tho way for an immediate settlement
Of the Ffume controversy, unless
President Wilson insists upon main
tanning his position in opposition not
withstanding that the two parties to
the dispute are in accord.
The Jugo-Slavs, it is understood,
have agreed that Fiume virtually shall
be annexed to Italy in return for con-
cessions elsewhere. This understand
ing has been reached in the last two
days by representatives here OF Italy
and Serbia and has the hearty sup
port of Great Britain and France;
that It was reached is due largely, It
is believed, to pressure put upon the
Jugo-Slavs by France. which has been
the special protector of the new nation.
1t Is now up to President Wilson TO
withdraw his opposition or to be isolated
In his views. assuming the entire re-
sponsibility for a situation which. In the
view of his former associates in the
Council of Four. has become intolerable
for Europe. Opinion here virtually Il
unanimous CHAT the President with the
eyes of all europe now upon him cam

II President Wilson consents TO this
settlement DAnnunzio will be indicated
and his friends will hail It as a personal
triumph for him, as unquestionably his
sensational raid aided these negotiations
powerfully. Here are the moves leading
UP to the present situation:
First-At a meeting OF the Supreme
Council last Monday Premier Lloyd
George suddenly expressed the view
that after all Fiume ought TO be an
nexed to Italy. although he had Joined
recently in the presentation to Presi-
dent Wilson Of a plan to make II a
free city.
Second-As a result of this Fore
eign Minister Tittoni informed Under
Secretary Polk that Italy had made
too many concessiona.
Third-Italy at the suggestion OF
France then opened direct negotia-
tions with the Jugo-Siavs, the Allies
agreeing that II the Jugo-Slavs ap-
prove her Fiume claim the present
position OF the Allies as arbitrators
virtually would be ended.
Fourth--As a result of these nego-
tiations President Wilson has been
Informed that the Adriatic question
is settled az between Serbia and Italy

to incorporate this settlement In the
Hungarian treaty.
This is why the Italian Parliament ad-

future of Belgium than to the Neither

These issues are respectively military
and commercial. The first involves pos

for a revision of the treaty of 1899 be-
tween Belgium and Holland under which
Holland annexed the southern bank OF
the Scheldt River and an elongated strip
Of Dutch Lmburg. lying between Bel

Belgium based her demands upon the
necessity of securing a stronger military
frontier and freeing the trade OF Ant
werp. her great port, from the restric-
tions now placed upon 1t by Dutch pos
session Of the lower portion Of the
Scheldt, and asked for political control
OF the southern bank Of the river, and
