Bth.—Traffic of all classes for Demerara is now being for- warded by mail, communication "with | Demerara being entirely suspended. Messages must be accepted to indefinite delay. ’ § Paris, Sept.sth—lt is understood that the Commission of the Allied Generals sent to Fiume to investigate the dis- turbances there in which French soldiers were killed, has made recommendations - to the Peace Conference which include ( the maintenapces of publiz order in Fiume by a Briti.h and American police force. | Rome, Sept. sth.—The conclusions at- tributed to the Inter-allied Commission inguiring into the Fiume incident are so erroneous, says the GGiornale D’ltalia that they seers impossible as comimg from representatives of Govts. with whom for five years [taly has lived in the brother- hood of arms and to whom she has given luminous proofs of friendship. Their conclusions, if reports are true, are blows which would be hardly comprehensihle even if the communication, instead of be- ing from allied nations. had been com- posed of officials of the old Austrian em- pire. Late in June there were soveral clashes between Italian and French troops in the city of Fiume, it being al- ieged by the Italians that the French soldiers in the city were antagonistic to the Italians and had trampled upon Itali- an flags which had been wrested from Italians in the streets. The Council of Five of the Peace Conference appointed a commission to investigate the troubie. This Commission completed its work some time ago but the text of its report has not yet been made publie. London, Sept. sth.—The industrial situation in Great Britain a- the present moment appears far less grave than a few months ago when there wos a threat of a complete upheaval of labou . Since the settlement of the Yorkshire strikes, there has been no trouble of great magnitade althouzh small strikes In various industrial pursuits are still frequent and tramway workers are threatening a nationzl walkout if a wage advance is not granted. Gene.al unrest, nowever, throughout the coun- try, has b:ca lessened sinez Ministerial revelations of the nations grave finan- cial position which seem to have had a muderating effect. Influential labour leaders have done their ‘utmost to im- press workers with th2 imperative need sos speeding up the industrial output and moreover the Govt. has promised early legislation for a 48-hour week and a mini- mum wage for al} industries. Paris, Sept. 4th.— 'Germany defeated on the west has turnped to the east where she is waging a pattle with the hope of achieving the vtogy she could not win on the other front’’, M. Paderwski, Pre- mier of Poland, decla ed today to the Associated Press while discussing Polish peace conditions. M. Paderwski will appear bhetore the Supreme Council of the Peace Conference to discuss the critical situation. ‘‘ln upper Silesia, East Prussia, Lithuania, along the Bol- shevik liront, in the vicinity of Minsk and along the Ukrainian front, Polish armies are forced to face armed ene- mies’’, he continued. ‘‘whilethese armies are not Germans, they are aided by Ger- mans, who are assisting 'the Bolshevik forward in eyvery way possible to embar- rass Poland. Our new Govt. with limit- ed supplies and little eclothing for its army finds the situation desperate’’. Rome, Sept. s&th. -The Chamber of
