AMERICAN SUSPECTED
IN ITALIAN Staying

ROME, Dec. "a court of inquiry
investigating the kidnapping and slay-
ing of the Socialist deputy, Mstteotti,
today found that the deputy's Staying
was not a premeditated crime, but the
result of an impulse on the part Of
five hot-headed young men. Five men
are held for trial; one Of them, Du-
mini Amerigo, is said to be known in
st. Louis, under the name Of Jesse
Wilson"
The courts verdict shows that the
real cause Of the murder was Matte
otis bitter attacks upon the Mussolini
government. The courts review Of the
entire case also declared that Matte
otti was not the victim of a Cheka, or
political police, asserting that no such
organization existed in the Fascist
government.
Two communistic deputies, Repossa
and Saitta. were thrown out Of the
chamber of deputies when they arose
to make q verbal attack upon the gov
eminent. They were roughly handled
by the crowds in the streets afterward,
until rescued by squad Of police.
