Albanian Move Pleases Italy.

New York Times 100 years ago today, November 30, 1912:
Many Descendants of Albanians Live in Southern Provinces.
    ROME, Nov. 29.— The proclamation of the independence of Albania and the establishment of a provisional government there have been favorably received in Italy — especially in southern Italy and Sicily, where are living several hundred thousands of descendants of Albanians, whose ancestors escaped to Italy in 1444, when Scanderbeg, son of John Castriota, Lord of a hereditary principality in Albania, proclaimed his independence and maintained himself successfully against the Ottoman government.
    Numerous telegrams have been exchanged between the Albanian leaders here and their brethren at home. The Italian Albanians have included several distinguished men. The late Premier Crispi was a descendant of an Albanian.
