FACTA CABINET
LEAVES OFFICE
MEMBERS HAND RESIGNATION
TO KING-ENDEAVOR TO PRE-
VENT ANY DISORDERS BY
PREPAREDNESS PROGRAM BY
THE POLICE.

Rome, Oct. 2S.-The Italian cab
met headed by Premier handed their
designations to the king today, II
was officially announced this even
ing.
The announcement had been ex-
pected and therefore caused no sur
prise among the people of Rome
King Victor Emmanuel has request
ed Premier Facta and his colleagues
in the ministry to continue thelr
work until a new government has
been constituted. Meanwhile the
member of all the political parties
express the hope that no disorder
will result and that the various fac
tions will permit the crisis to be SOL
we'd without any undue pressure.
The king, who arrived in Rome to
night received Signor Facta, who
gave TIE monarch detailed report
on the siuation both concerning the
cabinet and the frame of mind OF
the public. He told the king that all
measures had been taken to endeav-
or to prevent any attempt being a.
gainst the authority of the state and
to report any disorder that might a
rise, The police and military at Pisa
Siena and other places in Tuscany
have adopted precautionary measure
ers Ia view of the mobilization Of
the Fascist in that region.
The opinion prevailing in political
circles IS that the Fascist are mas
ters of the situation and that a new
cabinet can be formed only by them
or with their consent Or parGicipa-
tion.
The post authoritative prediction
GEMS to be that the new minlstory
will be formed either by DR.. Benite
Mussoliui, leader of the Fascist, OF
by foamer Premier Salandra with
the collaboration of the Fascist.
All observers of the political sit
uation agree that the ministerial
crisis came consequence of DR.
Mussolinis determined attitude or
Thursday. when he called together
all the military leaders Of his organ
ization and ordered the 100000
workers now members of the Fascit
to be in readiness for cooperation
with the military sections. This ac
tion by Mussolini was considering
to keep his oath, taken at Naples
that tha Fascist would assume thu
reins Of government either legally a
by force.

CHICAGO. March 31.--Wheat
prices worked lower during the
early TRADING under scattered SELL

liquidation by longs. The failure
of foreign markets to follow the

probably the main reason for

Commission houses were on

Corn eased with wheat after

Trade was not large and prices

Trade In oats was very small
