Priest Falls to Death
From Porch of Rectory
Father Veit Fatally Injured
When Railing Gives Way
as He Leans Over

Injuries suffered when he fell from
the porch of his rectory caused the
death last night of the Rev. James Veit,
pastor Of the German Roman Catholic
Church Of the Assumption, at AIT West
Forty-ninth Street. The accident re-
suited from the collapse of the porch
railing against which he was leaning.
Father Veit was about to go to his
church yesterday morning to hold
mass, and had donned his ,surplice and
cassock. The bark of his pet dog Sport
brought him TO the porch. He leaned
over and plunged twenty feet to the
ground, striking on his head. While
waiting for the arrival Of the ambu-
lance from Roosevelt Hospital parish
toner's knelt by his body and prayed
FOR his recovery. While communicates
gathered for the mass the unconscious
priest, suffeving from fractured skull
and internal. injuries, was taken to the
hospital.
Several hundred school children of
the parish, on their way to the
parochial school, were led by the sis
ters into the chapel to pray that
Father Vets life might be spared

Dangers to the Empire:

Political Result Puzzling
Personalities and Local
Al Affairs in Background;
Electors Made Cautious
From The Tr.s,,.,, r.,.o. -,

From The Tribane's Europcam sureou
AoNDoN, Nov. s. - Complications
arising from the situation in the Near
East have developed SO much confusion
IN the political campaign here that
ehe most astute political prophets are
more at sea than ever. Mr.. LLOYD
George has taken the most serious
view of the position Of the Allies in
Constantinople, but not more so than
the members of the Bonar Law govern
ment, who have the responsibility of
determining the policy to be followed.
The best indication of the uncer-
tainty and instability of affairs in Eu-
rope generally can be found in the
violent depression of foreign ex-
changes, particularly the mark and the
French and Belgian francs. 1t is only
natural that in this period of profound
worry the British electors should ap-
proach the election in an extremely
cautious mood. The Lloyd George gov
eminent lost the confidence of the
British people because it was believed
that 1t took too lightly the danger Of
war in the Near East, and to-day there
is no apparent change in the determi-
nation to avoid costly conflict unless
the arrogant Turks give no other
alternative.
a fortnight ago it looked as if the
election would be fought out on per-
sonalities and local issues, but the
developments in Constantinople have
overshadowed both these features and
the campaign has become an infinitely
more serious affair. At time like this
the British show themselves in the best
light as patriots or imperialists, or
whatever term may be used to describe
the way in which they unite when their
country is threatened from the outside.
Under threat of foreign attack the
government of the hour receives the
support of all parties, and it is note
worthy fact that at the present mo-
ment the Bonar Law government is
almost immune from attack. A few
days ago, or before the Near East
crisis loomed up, assaults were being
made on it from all quarters.
1t is a matter of grave doubt whether
the Bonar Law government will receive
a working majority in Parliament in.
the election week hence, and in the
event Of such situation developing
there is no doubt that coalition will
be formed with the Independent Lib
erals. Such a coalition might not last
long, but it would survive until the
period of acute crisis had been passed.

Associated Press).-Dr. Eugen Won
Knilling, of the German Peoples party,
has been elected Premier of Bavaria
by the Diet.
Count Hugo Lerchenfeld, the Bava-
rian Prime Minister, rendered his res
ignation to the President of the Diet
on November 4. Advices from Berlin
previously had announced the immi-
nence of the resignation, owing to the
governments difficulties with the
agrarian party growing out of Lerch-
enfeld's economic proposals to the CEN
trail government in Berlin. The Peoples
party was declared to be opposed to
Lerchenfeld's policy in this respect.
Advices from Munich later said the
members of the Right, who were criti-
cizing the Lerchenfeld government as
being too weak and submissive, were
casting about to find "a leader who
would stand ON an "anti-Berlin" plat
form. ItNwas added that the coalition
parties in the government were report
ed to have agreed on DR.. Won Knilling,
who was Bavarian Minister of Educa-
tion under the monarchy.

tinguished himself and was three times
decorated for bravery. After the con-
clusion of peace he dedicated himself
to the redemption of the marsh land
between Rome and Naples, where his
family possesses large estates.

campaign was chosen a deputy on the
Nationalist ticket. His family is one
Of the noted ones Of the Roman aris

the prime of life and is noted for his
