VERY DEVOTED
M A.soclnted pressI

FIUME, Nov. 20. - A striking
demonstration OF the devotion OF
IsAnnupElo's troops to their loader
was given here on tho occasion Of
rho celebration Of the second aunt
yersary OF the victory of Italian
arms in the war. The poet com.
mRndor" as everyone calls dan
nunxIo here, occupied box in the
Fenice heater where the celebra:
tion was held. His arrival was
beralded by a bugle call and MS
appearance was signal Tor thufiN
derstorm OF applause and cries oil
Viva Il Comandante'
When two others had addressed
the FIumIans who crowded the the
ater another blare OF bugles made
everyone turn to the box where
d'AununzIo stood in the uniform OF
an italian cavalry officer.
would be a hopeless task to attempt
m Give n pale idea Of the enthu'
siasm Of the crowd. Everyone rose
to his feet and the theater re-.
sounded with the d'AnnunEiah CRY
OF Ella, Ella. Allah, from thous9nas
OF throats while flowers raineo
upon d'Annunzio from all sides.
Though his proclamations usual.
10 arc written in poetical and
somewhat bombastiC style, his
snooch consisted Of the simplest
words, He declared that Fiume
alone really celebrated the Italian
victory while Rome celebrated the
assassination OF victory" He ask
cd his men to keep ready as, soon
or ArNn was generally expected ne
wofn take them with him to Rome.
Al these words the enthusiasm was
renewed, the people waved manu-
kerchiefs, hats. sticks and weapons
in the air amid cries Of: ITO homs'
to Rome, Ella Ella, Alala, Rome:
Rome" while the bombardment OF
flowers was redoubled.
o'Annunzio's exit from the the
alter was the occasion for fresh
demonstrations Of loyalty HIS
motor car wns surrounded by thef
crowd and obliged TO proceed at
foot mace while his men toughS
among themselves to approach and
tonch him. He was escorted az
the way back to his residence by
an admitting multitude under q con
tinuous fire OF flowers and amid
cheers for him. for Italy, Fiume and
Dalmatia.
D'Annunzio seems to radiate
magnetism. He has worked nia
mon up to such a pitch OF patrtotic
fervor and devotion to himself
that he seems to have them ALMOST
hypnotlzed.
