Consolidate
 wo Charter
 Committees
Mayor Issues Statement Concerning Reasons Why Committees Were Combined.

This morning Mayor Atwater made the following statement regarding the consolidation of the two Charter Re- vision Committees.
 '"The committee authorized by the Common Council was at first intended to correct a few glaring defects in the present charter. The plan was to go to the Legislature with a measure providing for the correction of these defects and ask the Lgis1eature to take the necessary action to amend the Charter in these respects and have it go into effect at once.
 ''In the meantime, the committee authorized by the voters at the polls on November 7th would be starting it's work which might result in their bringing in a report in favor of Com mission Government or City Manager, or some other form totally different from our Mayor and Aldermen form. Bear in mind, the corrections sought by the so-called Aldermanic Commit structure of the Charter itself but were merely intended to remedy a few bad spots in it's administration.
 t'The committee authorized by the voters-and it will be convenient to speak of the two committees as the Alderu1anic Committee and the Vot- CTS mmittee-would in normal course if proceeding under the Home Rule Act, bring in their proposed Charter at some time-say ninety days-before the election next Novern- Der. It could then be printed and distributed to the voters and could be voted on at the November election. It

 Some reports received here have had it that there were 1,500 dead in the town of Vallenar, but these are con sidered exaggerated, as the latest fig ures give in the neighborhood of L. 300 casualties, both killed and injur- ed in that town. It is believed, how ever, that the total killed and injured in the Vallenar valley will reach some 1900
 The removal of debris in the af- ficted regions has been started with the help of soldiers. Eighty per cent. of the buildings are down and the others are greatly damaged. Sol diers are patrolling the towns by day and inc police by night The state of siege is being maintained.

 CABINET
 RESIGNS
Dissatisfac- ton Over Preparation Committees Negotia- tions wit h Allie S Forces Collapse of Wirth Ministry.

Berlin, Nov. 15-(By the A. P.)
 The German cabinet headed by
 Chancellor Nirth has fallen. The
 ministerial resignations, filed last
 night were precipitated by the
 decision of the United Socialists
 not to participate in a Coalition
 ministry which included members
 of the German Peoples party.
 But the friends of Chancellor Wirth were not ob1ivious of the feeling that he had outlived his usefulness and now has become victim of a policy of indecision and inactivity which found its continuation in the govern ment's failure to make a practical with the Allied Repara- tions Commission during the course of it's recent visit to Berlin.
 Ever since the assassination of Foreign Minister Rathenau, the chan ce1lor has been described as a man who apparently possessed no inspira- tion, no initiative. This attitude gave added weight to the assertion that the late foreign minister was Wirth's in spiration, and the force which urged him on.

 Stalwart men with bu1ges on their hips .45 guns) loHled non chalant1y but watchfully about a wooden structure at Sixth and B streets s. w., once an una: suming government building, but now the Prohibition Enforcement Division.
 On one of the upper floors Of the innocent appearing place dors of the place loafed other men with bu1ges on their hips .45 guns) who seemed to have no other duties than to scan the faces of visitors.
 All this, 1t was explained to- day, Is due to whispers that have reached Prohibition Commits sioner Haynes and his dry aides to the effect that some bootleg gers >plan to careless1y drop a lighted match in the building which now houses all the records of the enforcement division
 Until recently the dry unit was located in a rented stone build dng on F street, the broadway of the capital. Governme mental economy forced the removal to a government owned wooden structure and ever since that time prohibition officials have been afraid of fire
 These fears multiplied in the last few days when reports reached Commissioner Haynes that boot1eggers were planning to fire the place. Hence the pre- cautions.
