REVOLUTION
N
Bloodshed Prevented by Victor
Emmanuel’s Action Siding
With Fascisti—Mussolini to
Be Power Behind Throne.
BY C. F. BERTELLI,
Universal Service Correspondent
Special Cable Dispatch
Paris, Oct. 29.-—All is quiet in Italy.
Rumors of revolution are false, ac
cording to diplomatic dispatches re
ceived tonight. The situation in
Rome, as summed up now is:
1—The courageous action of King
Victor Emmanuel in throwing his
personal weight in the scales in favor
Of thpf fasoisiti tins nrpvpnnad hlnnri
shed, and forced the government to
revoke its orders for martial law,
whicl) might have had serious conse
quences.
2— Benevito Mussolin*. a few years
ago a country lawyer, now the dicta
tor of Italy with more than 2,000,000
supporters* is not likely to accept the
premiership, preferring to remain the
power behind the throne. v
3— The first important result of the
fascisti success will probably be a
tension in Italy’s foreign affairs.
Mussolini is a partisan of the annex
ation of Austria, which, however, will
not be pressed at present.
The new government is likely to
veer from England to France, further
complicating the international situa
tion on the eve of the Near East
peace conference.
The principal note of the new gov
ernment will be its intense national
ism and one if its first acts will pro
bably be to annul the Washington
naval pact on the ground that Italy
must be the greatest Mediterranean
sea power.
STORAGE OF COAL IS
URGED BY MINERS
Would Help Prevent Seasonal
Shortage, Commission
Is Told.
Universal Service.
Washington, Oct. 29.—Coal storage,
so as to keep up a contiuous flow

tions to the United Spates coal com
mission made public here today by
Ellis Searies, John Moore and Thom
as Kennedy, the advisory committee
representing the bituminous miners
of the United Mine Workers of Amer
ica. These suggestions are the out
growth of the committee's conference
with the commission last Monday.
Suggestions will be offered later
for the anthracite miners, wjaich, to
gether with suggestions from com
mittees of bitumious and anthracite
operators, will give the commission
a basis for beginning its inquiry into
the ailments o,f the coal industry
and arriving at remedies therefor.

Coroner’s Jury Declares Slay
ing of Rev. J. L. Christler
Committed While Wom
an Mentally Deranged.
Universal Service.
Havre, Mont., Oct. 29.—Mrs. Mar
garet Carleton, wife of former dis
trict Judge Frank Carleton, was
found by the coroner’s jury here
early today to have been the slayer
of the Rev. J. L. Christler, rector of
St. Marks Episcopal church who was
shot to death in his home early Fri
day morning.
An inquest verdict, returned after
the jury had been in session five
hours, made thi3 finding of fact and
the further declaration that Mrs.
Carleton shot the rector while ‘‘tem
porarily mentally deranged," des
troying herself by shooting herself
through the heart an Instant afts
killing the rector.
Unrequited love, or love turned
cold, is the motive generally accept
ed in Havre for the slaying. A let
ter was found in the dead woman's
effects in which Rev. Christler ad
visad her against obtaining a divorce
as suggested by her husbaqd, from
whom she had been separated.
Widow Chief Witness.
Mrs. Christler, dressed in deep
mourning, was the main witness at
the inquest. In modulated tones she
recited the events of the tragedy and
incidents of the evening leading up
to it. She said that after the church
service which she attended with the
rector and the Rev. Charles Chap
man at Hutte, at which the rector
presided, she remembered that she
had left the key in the door and the
lights burning. The rector, she said,
left the witness and the Rev. Mr.
Chapman and went home to get the
key and extinguish the lights, hut
fhund that the key had been taken
from the door. Mrs. Christler tes
tified that she had a key and went
home, after the rector’s return, to
put out the lights.
Arriving there, she said she dis
covered somebody was inside and
before entering summoned O. C.
Houge, an attorney living next door.
He stood on the doorsteps, she testi
fied, while she went in. Within, she
continued, she found Mrs. Carleton
tearing up the rector's photograph.
Mrs. Carleton talked incoherently,
she said, but failed to make the pur
pose of her visit plain. Mrs. Christ
ler said she finally persuaded Mrs.
Carleton to accompany her and they
left together, meeting the rector and
the Rev. Mr. Chapman as they went
down the street.
Makes Midnight Call.
The Rev. Mr. and Mrs. Christler
left Mrs. Carleton at the meeting
place and went to the railroad sta
tion with the Rev. Mr. Chapman,
returning about midnight to their
home. A short time after their ar
rival, there was a knock on the door,
she testified, and Mrs. Carleton en
tered, remarking to the rector's wife
shat she had no place In her hus
band's life.
Mrs. Christler said that after talk
ing a few minutes in an attempt to
procure an explanation of Mrs. Carlo
ton's words and actions the rector
aiose and walked towards his sleep
ing room. Mrs. Christler walked to
the front door to open it for Mis.
Carleton and as her back was turned
she heard two shots in quick suc
cession. Turning, she testified, she
saw Mrs. Carleton fall through a
doorway into a small hall. Running
back, she saw that Mrs. Carleton
was dead and stepped over her body
to reach her husband but lie had
fallen in such a way that his body
partially blocked the door. She then
summoned the police and two phy
sicians Drs. I>'oss and McKenzie. No
threats were made nor any violence
indicated by Mrs. Carleton at any
time during their coversations.
Houge corroborated Mrs. Christ
ie r's statements concerning the dis
covery of Mrs. Carleton in the
Christler home said that about 10
o’clock on the night of the shooting
he saw Mrs. Carleton reach up and
turn out a light in the house.
