New British Demarche Made in Rome

Rome, Aug. 31.

Sir Noel Charles, British Charge d'Affaires, called on Count Ciano, Italian Foreign Minister, yesterday evening, regarding "allegations of renewed Italian intervention in Spain."

Sir Noel, it is understood, was acting under fresh instructions from the British Government, which is taken to indicate that Count Ciano's recent reply was not entirely satisfactory.

The conversation lasted only fifteen minutes and it is not known whether Count Ciano was able to give any further information. Yesterday's conversation was the fourth within three wecks—Reuter.
