TRIESTE, Dec. 3.——(By The A350-
ciated Press).———A state of war be-
tween th'o kingdom. of ltaly and the
"regency of Quarnero” at Flume be-
gan at midnight. but up to a. few min-
u.es before that time. there was no vis-
lble evidénce that actual hostllltties
lmpended. The blocknde of Flume
was continuing and the only mdlca.
tions of trouble were the fierce pro—
nouncements of Capt. Gabriele d'An-
nunzio against. General Cavlglia and
tthe regular Italian troops which were
surrounding the city.
Communication between Flume and
the islands of Artie and Veglla was cut
by an nation patrol in the Gulf of
taken from the city. Thus the poet
Quarnom and supplies cannot be
soldier's occupational forces there ap-
pear to be isolated. . .
Muscles o: d'Annunzlo are going
to and fro, explaining his point of
view, but shortly before midnight
there were no extraordinary signs
that the threat of war would take a
more. concrete form.
Flume .seemed tranquil yesterday
with the exception of unimportant
raids by submarine chuaers. There
was not the slightest movement of the
population, which was maintaining an
lndilremm attitude toward the legion-
aires, who were engrossed in “the
work 0! def..." -0...-
A number of d'Annunzlo‘s staff
told The Associated Press yesterday
that d'Annunzio wished recognition of
his services in occupying Flume from
Parliament and that he would become
conciliattory in that event.
