ITALIANS OCCUPY CORFU.

Athens, Sept. 1. The Italians have occupied Corfu, Telegraphic communication between Corfu and Athens was cut at seven o'clock last evening. It is asserted that the Italians bom- barded the forts, denuded of guns in accordance with the Florenco convention, although the Italians were informed that the forts were inhabited by refugee orphans. The number of the latter killed is variously reported to be from seven to fifteen The Governor of Corfu and ten officers are detained on an Italian warship. The garrison of the leland, numbering 150, retired to the interior. M. Gonatas-de- clared last evening that no reply would be sent to the second Italian äote, Greece would, await the decisions of the League of Nations. 'Greece had protested to the Fowers at the bombardment of unfortitted porta, the killing of refugees and violation of international law.

An Italian submarine in the Gulf of Goumenitza' fired at the Greek steamer Georgios, which was slightly damaged.

Rome, Sept. 1.

The occupation of Corfu, which has been officially confirmed, is

Admiral Solari, commanding the troops at Corfu, in a proclama- tion to the islanders, declares that the occupation was necessitated by "barbarous murders" and not as an act of war. It was only a manifestation of Italy's inflexible will to obtain reparation.

"The occupation would remain temporary and peaceful unless the attitude of the jalanders obliges special measures to protect Italian troops.

******** Geneva, Sept. 1.-

At a public sitting of the Council of the League this morning,.. the Secretary General announced receipt of documents in the Italo Greek dispute, which are most urgent for the Council to consider. Greece has applied for the League's intervention under Articles twelve and fifteen of the covenant. Signor Salandra, the Italian mem-. ber of the Council, declared that nothing in Italy's attitude could be regarded as a threat of war under Article twelve. The Council met this afternoon to consider the documents.

M. Politis has handed the Secretariat of the League the Greek... Note asking for intervention in the dispute with Italy.

The Council of the League of Nations, Viscount Lahii presiding. privately discussed Greece's appeal, The Greek representative Politis was present as a member of the Council. The Council unanimously passed a resolution agreeing to a short adjojrnment for examination of the question, fervently hoping that Italy and Greece meanwhile, will not commit any act which will aggravate the situation.

London, Sept. 1

The fact that the occupation of Corfu was not. accomplish- ed without opposition, is suggested in an Athena communique, stating that the Governor declined to accede to the Italian request. to occupy the island, whereupon troops were landed and the fleet. bombarded the police station and school, which were set on fire. It is reported there was a number of casualties.

The title and author of the

papers of all shades of opinion, emphasise the violation of two inter national instruments, thus embroiling other Powers; firstly, the international agreement of 1863, to which Italy was a signatory, guaranteeing the perpetual neutrality of. Corfu, and secondly, the Article of the League Covenant forbidding, a member to engage in warlike operatione against another member under the penalty of ostracism. An authoritative statement of the British official view is lacking in the absence of Mr. Baldwin and Viscount Curzon, and there is reticence in France, although the consensus of Paris news- papers strongly oppose Mussolini's action.

Lloyd's underwriters yesterday, before news of the occupation: was known, did business at twenty-five guineas per cent. against an outbreak of Italo-Greek'war before December 31st.

Reuter understands that replying to the Note of the Conference of Ambassadors, the Greek Government has agreed to hold an en- quiry into the massacre, which, it declares, will be conducted vigor- ously, Greece, it is also stated, is prepared to accept in advance any reparations demanded by the Conference of Ambassadors.

There is much interest in British quarters, in regard to the French view. The position at present is not clear, but it is felt this. is an 'occasion upon which Anglo-French"solidarity might have a most useful and calming effect.

Paris, Sept. 1.

Public opinion in regard to the Italo-Greek crisis remains. divided, one portion, of which the Temps is the principal mouth- piece, urging the dispute is a local matter which should be settled directly between the two parties concerned, and the other portion, of which the Journal Des Debata is the principal exponent, criticising the Italian Government for precipitancy and advocating arbitration by the Lengua as the only solution.

Viscount Curzon has interrupted his cure at Bagnolles, which he left to-day for Paris, en route, to London, where he is expected to-morrow.

Viscount Curzon arrived and interviewed M. Poincare for twenty
