Made Job More Sure. Yesterday morning Gabler made the work more sure. Not only did he disconnect the feed line while Kloos' automobile stood in front of the bank at the main street intersec- tion of the city, but at the point of heaviest traffic. This done, he placed a rag in the vacuum tank, leaving Just enough fuel to take Kloos out of the congested district. Following his designated victim from the bank, Gabler drove up when Kloos' automobile stalled seven squares from the bank. Ordering the manager into his own car, Gabler drove to the city Iimits. Gabler then forced the banker from the automoblle, threatening his life if he attempted to follow. Kloos dis- regarded and followed, drawing a volley of shots, none 6f which took effect. Within an hour after the robbery Gabler was in custody and identified by his victim. He maintained his in- nocence until officers, searching a ga- rage across the alley from Gabler's place of business, came upon the money in a sack buried under a pile of cans. Then he confessed. I had to go to prison anyway,” he said, “and it was just a question which one. Federal officers were pressing me for a $1,000 fine and $200 income tax payment. I had failed to make. I thought I could get away with this and pay ther off.” The entire case closely parallels that of the “Phantom Bandit,” Fred Nickol, president of his own manufacturing <concern. Nickol staged a daylight robbery of another branch bank and escaped with $22,800, but was captured a week later, and also confessed. Here again pressure of business troubles and overpowering debt were given as the primary motives in the case. Both robberies were deliberatelv planned. Nickol Now in Prison. Nickol pleaded guilty, and now is serving a 10-year sentence in the pent. tentiary. On several occasions Gabler has come to the notice of the Dayton po- lice department, but never in a crim- inal way, except once when he was arrested for bootlegging. When Kloos save his description to Inspector of Detectives Yendes immediately atter the robbery he was able to make such @ close and detailed one Yendes suspected Gabler and started his in. vestigation in that direction. When arrested Gabler was dirty from the work of his bench, his hands were steeped in oil and grime and he had all the appearance of a mechanic. The Gem City Engineering Co. has Deen in operation several vears, and is located in the rear of Gabier’s home, Federal officlals last night had not confirmed the statement of Gabler he was facing arrest for failure to pay his income tax.

OVERTHROW OF KING INVOLVED IN PLOT T0 SLAY MUSSOLINI (Continued from First Page.) people. No untoward events have been reported. Other Arrests Made. Further Important arrests and detentions were reported in various parts of Italy today in connection with the plot. The new arrests, as detailed by the Messaggero and the official Fascist organ, Popolo DI Rome, were made at Mantua, Genoa, Turin and Naples. One of those taken into custody at Naples is a former postal director, brother of Gen. Capello, who was one of the first to be arrested as an al- leged ringleader in the plot. At Turin a general whose name is not given. and a Unitarian Soclalist deputy were detalned. At Genoa 8 were arrested and at Mantua, 30. Those taken include a Prof. Foti, an accountant named Bonini and five lawyers, named Cerrato, Wil- liams, de Carli, Glannino and Focas- sati. I1 Tever, Fascist paper, today de. clares the conspiracy was hatched among members of the Italia Libera (Free Italy), a national patriotic so- clety founded by the dramatist, Sem- benelli. The paper reports the arrest of Ulisse Ducci, former head of the soclety, which was dissolved some time ago. Ducci originally was a Fascist but later joined the ranks of the antis. Editor Is Arrested. Another important step in the in- vestigation, Il Tevere adds, was taken at Genoa, where the offices of the socialist newspaper La Vora were occupied, the police arresting Chief Editor Ansalde, a prominent Free- | mason named Acquarone and the Uni. tarian Socialist leader Mangini. The mass of evidence against Tito Zaniboni, | formerUnitarian Soctalist deputy alleg- ed to have been chosen for the actual deen ot killing the premier, continues to increase. The police who discovered him in a hotel room overlooking the balcony on the Chigi Palace, where Premier Mussolini spoke on the Italo Austrian armistice day, claim to have found in his baggage a map minutely delineating the plans for his escape. It is revealed that the serfes num- ber on the rifle found in Zaniboni's room in the hotel had been filed off. Zanibeni 1§ maintaining his calm de- meanor in the Regina Coell prison. Tllustrating his steadiness of nerve, the newspapers quote him as remark when the prison authorities coat, “Rome is & bit too warm for an overcoat.” Tip Came From Sister. { The clue which enabled the police and government operatives to uncover the plot came from within Zaniboni's own family, according to the Popolo di Roma, which says that his sister, | worried by fear that his preoccupa: tion with policieal intrigue would lead him to commit some dangerous indis- cretion, prevailed upon friends to ask the government to send him abroad. The Court of Cassation, Italy's highest judicial body, convened in spectal session, has forwarded con- gratulations to Premier Mussolini on his escape, and a message of felicita- tion has also been received from | Gabriele d'Annunzio, the soldier poet. | Another manifestation of the faith in the Fascist chief appeared today during his visit to the new bullding of the ministry of public works, when the minister, Signor Giurati, present- ed him with a sword. Drastic Action Urged. weapon had been given to signor Giurati by a committee of Ve- netian citizens, but the minister told the premier he felt the latter was worthier to grasp it, saying: “I hope vou will be able to unsheath it on the ! right day for a new Itallan victory.” | L'Impero today calls upon the gov- | ernment to take immediate drastic | steps to crush the antt-Fascist and | anti-National elements, both in Italy |and abroad. It urges, first, prompt application of the proposed law con- cating the property and abolishing | the civil rights of political emigrants; | second, denial of passports to sus- pected politicians and constant police | surveillance of such persons, and I'third, a request upon foreign gov- | ernments that they prove their friend- { ship to Italy by inviting Italian ex- | patriates to leave their borders. | | TWO HELD IN DEATH. | |Accused of Running Down and Killing Charlotte Girl.

Mitchell intends to force a {showdown in his trial with regard to the specific charges that his S8an An- tonlo statements were ‘prejudicial to good order and military discipline.” He has. through counsel, already challenged the prosecution to point out a single instance of insubordina- tion or mutiny in the ranks either of the Army or Navy as a result of his publication of charges that the War and Navy Departments are ‘“crimi- nally negligent." Now he has requested the court to subpoena the Secretary of War and {have him produce from the records of his department “coples of all reports made since September 5 (the date of the first statement) by the command- ing general or the commanding offi- cer or a member of his command, to each and every corps area or dis- trict in the United States and forelgn possessions, territories or countries, Ishowing the state of good order and \military discipline in his command.” No Mutiny in Texas. Representative Reld, Mitchell's spe- clal attorney, already has scored a point in this connection at the ex: pense of a prosecution witnes Lieut. Col. Hicks, of the Sth Corps Area, in which Col. Mitchell was sta- tioned at the time of his attacks on the military establishments Col. Hicks, under pressing cross-examina- tion by Representative Reid, admitted to the court that there had been no laxity of discipline or lack of good or- der in his command as a result of the Mitchell charges. Repretentative Reld, pointing to the members of the court as com- manders of military areas capable of observing the conduct of the men under them, has “ventured the opin- ion” in open court that none of them had noted any let-down in discipline or observed eny disorders in the ranks as an outcome of Col. Mitch- ell's remarks. Counsel for the defense have gone further than this, however, and have come forth with the declaration that instead of setting up any such “de- spicable” reaction as charged in the elght specifications on which the col- onel is being tried, the San An- tonio statements have caused a wave of patriotism to sweep the coun- try—at patriotic rush to inquire into the condition of the Natlon's defense and to seek the necessary remedies. Issuance Not Denied. The whole question reverts to whether the issuance of the state- ments, true though they may be or not, constltutes a breach of military discipline. The prosecution in pre- senting its case to the court did not attempt to go into the truth or falsity of the charges, but contented itself merely with proving that the statements were lssued and pub- lished. —_—— OFFER FROM ITAL TO FUND WAR DEBT { IS DISAPPOINTING (Continued from First Page.) the other hand, were understood also to be extremely desirous to prevent a second fallure. Concerning the fall of the francand its consequent complications, the American Government, it was said on the highest official authority last night, can assume no responsibility, although it regrets to see the difficul- tles into which France has been plunged. It was denied on high au- thority that the American Govern- ment had officlally caused further pending loans to France to be with- held. In offering only what Italy, accord- ing to her economic prospects, can | actually pay, it is known the visiting commission has presented figures to show the heavily increased Italtan | fiscal burden. In the year 1913-1914, the burden was 2,603,000,000 lire, ac- | cording to the presentation, while for | the vear 1928-1924, the Itallan fiscal burden was 20,050,000,000 lire. This! enormous Increase is further made | | significant, it is explained, by the fact that the lira, which before the war was worth about 20 cents on ex- change, is now somewhere unden 4 cents. | Further illustrating the Italian | difficulty in paying, they have told the American Government that di- rect taxes for the year 1913-14 were 540,000,000 lire, whereas in 1923-24 they were 5,649,008 lire. Taxes on business transactions in Italy increased, the American com- mission is told, from 293,000,000 lire in 1913-14 to 3,042,000,000 in 1924-25. Might Accept $30,000,000. Informal reports have indicated that in their efforts to get together, there have been suggestions made to the Italians from their own sources that if they could offer $30,000,000 a year to the Americans this might be 2 somewhat middde ground. offering hope for agreement. In the actual negotiations, however, it is under- stood, that nefther side has actually mentioned the $30,000,000 figure. In some American quarters the pro- posal has been advanced that the American commission might, if it finds Italy cannot pay anywhere near the British basis, obtain at least from the Italian commission an official rec- ognition of their debt in full, with a promise to pay what is possible with- in the next few years. It has even been suggested in American quarters | day. that the Italians sign an agreement to pay the principal of the debt, with some interest, with the unwritten un- derstanding that in case they find pay- ment impossible in the future the mat- ter be reopened. This proposal, how- ever, it 18 understood, has not been put forward by the American commis- sion. It was the French demand for an absolute written agreement similar to the above, constituting a security clause, which was one of the reasons for the disruption of the Franco- American negotiations. Rumanians Reach City. The Rumanian Debt Commission, headed by Nicholas Titulesco, the Ru- manian Minister at London, arrived last evening from New York, having landed from the Aquitania earlier in the samo day, and was met at the Union Station here by Charles L. Cooke, ceremonial officer of the State Department, and F. G. Blair of the Treasury Department, representing the American Debt Commission. The commission motored through the Capitol Grounds and to Ward- man Park Hotel, where they took up their headquarters. Accompany- ing the head of the commission was his wife, Mme. Titulesco. Other members of the commission are Eftimle Antonesco, counselor of the high court of cessation and jus- tice: Emile Giuan, director general of war reparations; Victor Badulescu of the ministry of finance, Dimitru Clotori, attache of the Rumanian legation in London; V. Slavesco, banker, and Savel Radulesco. —_——— If a man releases a plece of prop- erty he takes a fresh grip on it. CAP DOES SPIKE WEAR WHEN HE A ¥ PLAYIeS FooreacL ?

Even mixed with chestnut, neither of these sizes could be used in the average furnace, and they have heretofore either gone begging or been sold to the higher class of industries. That is the reason there is so much of this coal left. One interesting development of the tour of this fleld yesterday was the fact that some operators are begi ning to sift out their “culm plles The “culm pile” is really the refuse After as much coal as possible h: been sorted out of what the send from the mines, the slate, rock, dirt and what little coal remains is dumped in a great heap. In the course of years these piles more 1 2 hundred feet. Although there !s, of course, con- siderable coal left in these dumps, the consumer who buys that type of coal is quite likely to take along con- siderable slate and rock. The com- pany cannot possibly eliminate all of the refuse, and ordinarily the culm piles are permitted to accumulate until there {s a shortage. Now that the shortage is most acute, the hun- dreds of dumps that are piled high around Scranton are offering a pos- | sible source of some coal and, of course, an opportunity for the min- ing companies to convert them into cash. One of these plles was being | “washed out” at a nearby mine to- The superintendent in charge of the work said it had been lying against its present hillside for close to 60 years, and he expected to con- vert about 60 per cent of it into coal Experts declared, however, that the older piles are really more valuable than the more recently accumulated | lones, because in the old days much coal was cast aside that now is mar- keted regularly. Pea coal, it was pointed out, was scarcely worth shipping back in the days when it brought only $3 a ton retail. to the culm pile. Now that it is sal- able at almost any price the lucky owner may ask, it s being assiduously sought from among the slate and rocks that have been its companions these long years. Some chestnut, too, 18 salvaged from the culm pile, All of the workers who would ordl- | narily do this work for the mining companies are striking. Hence the mining companies are not permitted to touch the dumps. One company endeavored to work its culm piles up the valley recently and a near riot en- sued among the miners. The unions are not objecting, however, to the companies-selling these plles to indi- vidual concerns with the understand- ing that the refuse will be removed from the mining property in bulk and be sorted elsewhers.
