PROBE DEEPER INTO
CHRISTLER MURDER
Judge Carletin, Husband of Woman
in the Case, May Aid State in
Seeking New Facts.


Havre, Mont.-Unexplained features
of the double killing early Friday of
the Rev. L. J. Christler, an outstand-
ing churchman and orator of the
state, and Mrs. Margaret Carleton,
member of his congregation, still
puzzles authorities here today.
When corners jury, Saturday
night, returned a verdict to the effect
that Mrs. Carleton did the shooting
while under the influence of an over
dose of sleeping powders, the matter
appeared closed. I But Mrs. Carleton's
mother, Mrs. Joseph Pyle, of Butte,
was not satisfied and started furth
er investigation.
Within the past twentyfour hours,
it was shown that the bullet which
killed Mrs. Carleton had been fired
downward, not directly upward, as had
The husband of the dead woman,
former District Judge Frank E. Garlic
ton, issued in California, statement,
asserting that Mrs. Carleton had con-
fessed to him her love for Rev. Mr..
Christler, and had intimated that her
love was returned. Mr.. Carleton con-
demned what he characterized as an
attempt to whitewash" Mr.. Christ
ler's character.
Ownership of the gun which was
used in the killing is another mystery.
1t was not Mrs. Carleton's as far as
is known. She had revolver,
smaller weapon, which was found
later among her affects.
Investigation thus far has failed to
disclose that it was the property of
the Christlers. Mrs. Pyle also has
claimed that diamond rings which Mrs.
Carleton was seen wearing Thursday
evening have not been found and has
suggested that if the rings were taken
from Mrs. Carleton's hand after the
shooting, the revolver might have
been placed in the open palm at the
same time.
The only story of the shooting told
e far was that of Mrs. Christler, said
to have been the only other person in
the Christler house at the time. She
had her back toward Mr.. Christler
and Mrs. Carleton when she heard two
shots, and turned to see Mrs. Carleton
fall, she told the coroner's jury.
City officials and physicians who
answered Mrs. Christler's telephone
call after the shooting, found the
bodies in a small hall, in which the
chief of police testified at the inquest,
there would not have been room for
third person. Mr.. Christler was
over six feet tall, and Mrs. Carleton
was of small build. The bullet
thought to have killed Mr.. Christler,
passed through his body and was
found in an opposite wall.
Mr.. and Mrs. Pyle left today for
Helena, where second funeral service
for Mrs. Carleton will be held. One
was held here yesterday.
Mrs, Pyle said before leaving that
she did not yet have sufficient evil
dence to demand that the authorities
reopen the case but stated that either
she or Mr.. Pyle would return to Havre
tomorrow to carry on the investigation.

Rome.-Vittorio Rolandi Ricci, the
Italian ambassador at Washington, has
presented his resignation like his col
leagues Count Sforza, ambassador at
Paris, and Senator Frassati, ambassa-
dor at Berlin, wishing to leave Premier
Mussolini free to choose his own trust
ed men for such important posts.
1t developed today that Premier
MussoHni had sent reply to the let
ter of resignation from Count Sforza
which was received yesterday reproach-
ing him for his action and asking him
to remain at his post. Premier Musso-
lini's letter to Count Sforza read:
81 feel bound to regard as a scarcely
friendly and very ill-timed action your
decision OF resign before you have
official knowledge of the direction l
shall take in the matter Of foreign
policy, which I shall lay before the
chamber, and which will in any case
not be simply the sum total of senti-
ments, as you mistakenly suppose. l
therefore formally invite you to re-
main at your post and not to embar-
rass a government which represents
the Hottest expression of the national
conscience. I shall be glad of a reply
to my telegram, reserving to myself
further decision in your case"

TWO BOYS ADMIT
ENTERING STORE
Lads Who Have Been in
Trouble Before Clear.
Up Robbery.
LOOK UP HOMES

Two small boys, Walter Quimby, who
gave his age as Is, and Jimmy Calvin,
who confessed to being IL, and both
of whom had been brought to the po-
lice Office before on charges of larceny,
were brought in this morning by De-
tectives Breidt and Rock and formally
booked on charges of burglary in the
night time. The boys confessed that
they had entered the William F. Krue-
ger restaurant at the corner of West
Prairie avenue and Superior street on
Monday night. They confessed that
they had taken a quantity of cigar
cites and candy from the place.
"We went into the place with the
idea of getting some money" was the
statement of young Quimby, who had
on khaki uniform when he reached
the police office. "We opened the back
window of the place about half past
nine o'clock, but we did not get any
money"
Boy Sobs Out Story.
Calvin, who is known to his friends
as Buddy" Calvin, was scarcely big
enough to. look over the desk at head
quarters when he was being booked
He sobbed out mis- confession to the
chief in the inner sanctum and admit
ted that he had gone along with Quinn
by, This boy admitted that he had
been picked up three months ago on a
charge of taking some cement sacks
from place on the west side of the
city. Quimby, while but Is, was de-
clared to shave a record" An exam
ination of the record showed that he
had been paroled after sentence to the
state industrial school at Waukesha,
The boys did not admit connection
with any other small burglaries in Ke-
nosha.
Il am going to take a look into the
home conditions surrounding these
boys before take any further action
in the matter" was the comment of
Chief Logan. 1t was expected that the
boys would be taken into court this
afternoon. The value of the stuff TAX
en- from the restaurant did not exceed
a few dollars.

Far Ahead of Other Cities.
Milwaukee, Racine and Kenosha
forge far ahead of the other cities of
the state in the manufacturing CON
Germs. Superior is the closest Compel
ltor with Kenosha for third place, hav-
ing total value of $44,043,00O. Other
cities IN the order named are; She
boygan, $31, $4,000; Green Bay, $685.
$4,000; Oshkosh, $2T,572,O 900; Manito-
voc, S27,762,0O0; Lacrosse, $24, 936, 600
Kenosha and Racine have leaped far
ahead of other cities of the state in
this respect. The statistics taken re-
Gently in Kenosha industries reveal
that the growth has been a stable one,
and that, although some of this in
crease came in war days, it has re-
manned with KenOsha through the days
OF reconstruction and normally.
Number of Workers Shown.
The figures, which are interesting,
show the increase in the number of
wage earners in Kenosha during the
past ten years. The number of estab-
llshments employing workmen, as rec

jumped accordingly from 6,449 in 1909
to 7,155 in 1914 and 13,045 in 1919.

were 1920 operatives employed in Ke-
noshaT probably the largest number in
the history Of the city. That Kenosha
is not so far behind Racine is demon
strated by the fact that it's highest
total of operatives was 16,645.
Not All Large Industries.
That Kenosha's industrial supremacy
is not based entirely on its large in !
dustries, which have made it famoW
and continue to be the chief asset in I,
manufacturing way to the city, is
shown in another table. There it is
shown that the 81 industries of Keno

factories: s-s..

products is 100000 or over. .s..
Ten where the annual value of prod

Twenty-seven where the annual value
of products is $4,000 to $4,000,
Fourteen where the annual value of
products is less than $4,000.
A number of the pamphlets showing
the figures on manufacturing in Wis

all of them have proven most interest

to receive them.

Alice Hroning, 7O8 Rice avenue:

William Holloway of Burlington faced
the white plaster walls of the city
lookup when he awakened this morn
ing, and when coffee was handed him
he sat behind iron bars with daylight
peering grimly and duly into his iso-
lated cell. The man, charged with at
tempting a criminal assault Sunday
upon six-year-old Hilda Meinike, was
brought back from Burlington Tues
day evening by Assistant Chief Cyzak
arrested on a John Doe warrant, after
the police had spent two days search
ing for the man. When arrested, Kold-
way, though he allowed himself to be
taken into custody stolidly, without Of
fering resistance to the officers, main
tanned that he was innocent and had
not attacked the child.
ROOmed at the Hotel.

persons in Kenosha, who had noticed
him, or a person of his description
talking with and fondling the little
Meinike child last Sunday afternoon
The witnesses declared that the man
whom they saw lived at the Cummings
hotel, where the child also stayed and
that he worked for the McCabe Con-
struction Company. They described
the man seen with the child as. big
man, perhaps five feet eleven in height
weighing 200 pounds and about As
years old. His face was described as
large and heavy, and he wore nous
taehe.
From the proprietor of the hotel the
police learned that the name of the
lodger who worked Oh the road was
William Holloway. With this clue, the
police spent some time looking for the
man in Kenosha, but on Tuesday found
that he had left the city From an
other source it was learned that Kold-
way claimed Burlington as his home.
