The Ambassador in Italy ( Page ) to the Secretary of State

Rome , November 16, 1918—6 p.m.
[Received November 17—6:20 a.m.]

2368. Learned that detachment of troops have [occupied?] Fiume, but some doubt exists whether Italians only or international force.

The Fiume Italian Deputy, who called on me to-day, states that after talk with Premier Orlando, he [sent?] a note to Baron Sonnino the evening the latter left Rome for Paris requesting that Fiume be taken under the Allies.
