SUICIDE OF A STATESMAN
SIGNOR ROSANO, ITALIAN MINISTER
OF FINANCE, SHOOTS HIMSELF.
Socialists Were AssaiIing His Charac-
ter and Charging Him with Cor
ruptiOn-TrOubIe I'm Asia Minor.

NAPLES, Italy, Nov. 9-Minister of FL
nance Rosano committed suicide by shoot
ing during the night. He was found dead
this morning in his room with revolver at
his side. Signor Rosano was given the po-
sition of minister of finance in the new
Cabinet, the formation of which was only
announced last Wednesday
Signor Rosano left a letter to his wife
in which he said: II am an honest man,
last month such violent storm of accusa-
tons has poured over me that l cannot re-
sist. The future will render me Justice
pardon my enemies who have injured me
so much. You also must forgive them"
The principal accusation against Signor
Rosano was that he received 81 eco from an
Anarchist Berganasco, to use his influence
to have Bargenasco released from police
surveillance, which compelled him to live
constantly at a stated place, which the
minister succeeded in doing. The Roma
yesterday evening published a letter from
Berganasco confirming the accusation.
When young man Signor Rosano tried
to commit suicide for love of the woman
who later became his wife. He was one
of the greatest of Italian lawyers and was
born in 1917.
Signor Rosano also had grave family
troubles due to the conduct of his three
sons. He was at one time obliged to pub
lish a statement that he would not hold
himself responsible for their actions One
of the sons is supposed to be in the United
States, where he is said to be employed as
a detective. Another Socialist paper, the
Avanti, says that this son may have been
one of the causes of his fathers suicide.

ROME, Nov. 9.-Since the formation of the
new Cabinet the Socialists had attacked
Signor Rosano, the minister of finance,
charging him with corruption during his
political career, challenging him TO disprove
the charges. and adding that otherwise they
would bring the matter up at the opening
of the Chamber of Deputies. 1t was at first
reported from Naples that the minister had
been stricken with apoplexy and died while
taking train for Rome. Later, however.
1t became known he had committed suicide,
which caused a great sensation and much
excited comment,
