opinion is likely to be the cause for such
a conflict. A duel hanging fire in Rome at
present is between two Deputies, Phillip
son and Benedetti. Each one of these
wanted profitable post as secretary in
certain corporation. Phillipson wanted
the prestige and did not need the money,
since he accumulated great fortune dur
ing the war. Benedetti did need the
money and he finally secured the post.
Then Phillipson made public declara-
tion in the parliamentary district to which
both Deputies belong that Benedetti did
not pay his debts. Thereupon Benedetti
pulled Phillipson's nose. A duel is sched-
uled and doubtless will be held back of the
old tower which overlooks the field of
honor just outside of Rome-the place
where the restaurant is
Then there was an affair over a ques-
tion of patriotism, indirectly involving an
American woman, formerly Miss Dorothy
Deacon of Boston, who was later the
Princess Radziwill and who Is now the
Countess Palffy wife of Hungarian
nobleman.
Count Palffy two years ago called
Prince Odeschalchi, also Hungarian but
member of we'll known Italian family,
"a traitor to his country"
Prince Odeschalchi openly admitted hav-
ing offered his services to the Allies, one
after another, and finally to America. Also
he challenged Count Palffy several times,
but for two years the Count declined to
The New York herald., 1922-04-30

give the Prince an opportunity to fight on
the field of honor.
Recently special court of honor, mod
eled on the official board which served
during the war, comprising several dis
tinguished Romans, sat on this affair.
They decided in the first place that the
Prince had violated his honor in offering
his services to the enemies of his coun-
try, but the court decided also that Count
Palffy had violated his honor in calling
Odeschalchi a traitor for two years with
out giving him chance for satisfaction.
Both were therefore disqualified to meet
on the dueling ground, and that particu-
lar combat is off. But there is believed
to have been an underlying grievance, and
1t Is not improbable that they are yet to
meet.
The most extraordinary series Of duels
of late years in Italy were those fought
by the Nationalist Deputy Mussolini. In
some respects they resembled family
feuds where the obligation to avenge an
affront passed from one member of a fam
lily to the next
The Mussolini affair began directly in
a duel over a political difference fought
between Gen. Bencivenga, editor of IL
Pdese, the moderate Nitti paper, and the
editor of the idea Ndsionale, the ardent
Nationalist sheet. The two combatants
did not like each others political views.
and finally stepped out Of their newspaper
columns and met in true Latin spirit on
the field of honor. Soon afterward men,

wounded in the war and wore medal on
his chest, became incensed at remarks
made by francesca Ciccotti, another editor

she could at least afford a
few thousand lire for statue
Of herself"
The affair came to a crisis
when Torlonia slapped Lo-
vatelli's face at the Anglo
American charity ball--a great social
event. The next day the duel was fought.
They fought bitterly for more than half an
hour, their seconds having all they could
do to prevent them killing each other. AL
though the sculptor had an artery in his
arm cut and consequently was accounted
loser he is not yet wholly satisfied and
plans are afoot for another meeting Incl
dentally, Pope Plus communicated the
Duke.
But, as has been said, the greater num-
ber Of duels fought in Italy now are re-
ments practiced by the Court of Honor func-
tioning during the war, and most of the
duels are centered about women.
The daughter of the Duke mentioned be-
fore discovered as soon as the war ended
that she had managed to effect as compli-
Gated situation as any that has ever ap-
peared in fiction.
She had promised SO many war bound
soldiers that she would marry them that
she lost count.
After the war her suitors began to ar
rive in fairly large numbers to claim
her. She handled the situation by confess
ing that she was in something Of guam
dary. They set out, most of them, to settle
the matter near the little restaurant
But the fact is that the epidemic which
has resulted from the suppression Of duels
during the war has made dueing SO prev
alent and so popular that any difference of
The New York herald., 1922-04-30

had said. So Igliore considered him an
unworthy antagonist
AT this juncture Benito Mussolini, leader
OF the Fascist, wrote violent letter
against Ciccotti, who promptly challenged
him to duel, which Mussolini accepted
Lieut.. Igliore and his second, Gino Calza
Bini, another Roman Fascist, were in
censed that the head of their organization
would accept a duel with Ciccotti when
Igliore had refused. ."If you fight with
this fellow you'll have to satisfy each OF
us LATER" they told Mussolini So Musso-
lini took on all three duels.
Then the law intervened. The police set
out to prevent the Mussolini-Ciccotti duel
The Fascist leader Mussolini raced to the
dueling place by automobile with police

protested against this police chaperonage
to the Minister of Justice He asked the
amazed official like defiant small boy:
Are you or are you not going to let me
fight this duel?'
The Minister replied that 1t was strange
for representative of the people to come
to him, the upholder of the law, and to de-
mand the right to fight a duel, which vio-
lated the penal code. But honor comes be-
fore the law in Italy and the duel took
place at Livorno. All Rome attended. So

riages to the scene of carnage. The fight
lasted for an hour, when Ciccotti was
seized with heart attack and the physi-
clan called a halt. After tremendous
discussion the duel was shifted to verbal
debate before jury of honor. Rome went
home in its street cars, automobiles and
carriages

pers. There were accusations that Cic-

Dueling In Italy Is not bloodthirstv
way OF settling differences. II is as formal
an act of courtesy as tipping the hat when

rarely fatal. Honor Is presumed to be
satisfied on the first drawing OF blood.

1t is quite well known that the daughter
for six duels within the last four months.
And the explanation is that she was tender
hearted in the presence of uniform of
the army or the navy 1t is the general
belief that she may soon become the wife
of one of her admirers. Unless she does it
is the impression that much more blood
will be spilled.
most interesting commentary upon the
situation is that a cafe or little restaurant
maintained near the most popular dueling
grounds just outside of Rome earns hand
some profits for its proprietor. And his
rapidly increasing fortune is due solely to
the custom of duelists and those who come
out to the grounds as spectators, when
prominent statesmen, leading artists and
journalists, nobemen-representa Of
all professions and all walks of life-are
settling their differences with the sword
recent duel between Romans prominent
in society was that in which Duke Marino
Torlonia and the sculptor, Count Philip
Lovatelli, fought The sculptor had made
a bust of the Dukes wife, formerly Miss
Elsie Moore of New York.
After the bust had been made the Duke
changed his mind about accepting it and
sent it back to the sculptor with check
for 1000 lire as payment for his labor,
excusing himself for the smallness of the
sum with the explanation that the exchange
rate was unfavorable. Lovatelli at once
put the rejected bust in conspicuous place
in his salon, decorating II with a little
placard reading.

Ciccotti demanded q duel

He based his refusal on Cic-

years before Ciccoti, then
member of the Socialist party,
had made it practice to re-
fuse every duel offered him.
He then considered duels un-
dignified. The Chevalier's

at the first show Of blood the
duel must stop. ''If a man
