HOUSE CANDIDATES
MUSTLISTEXPEFiSE
Law Confusing Regarding
. Senatorial Aspirants.
FILINGS NOW BEING MADE
Senator France of Maryland, Re
ports Primary Expenditures
Totaled $30,795.
"WASHINGTON, D. C Nov. 1.
While less than one-half of the can-,
didates for the senate have filed
campaign expense statements, ac
cording to the count made today oy
clerks, candidates for the house are
till sending their reports at the
rate of almost 200 a day. In the
midst of the confusion as to pro
visions of the law, the one fact that
stands out clearly is that house can
didates must file, now and after the
election.
The view was expressed by some
senate officials that many candi
dates for that branch might accept
the Interpretation of the supreme
court decision In the Newberry
case by Attorney-General Daugh--erty
that they were not required to
file. In a letter last year to Rep
resentative Luce, republican, Massa
chusetts, the attorney-general, an
swering a specific inquiry as to the
effect of the Newberry decision,
said:
"As United States senators are
not now elected by legislatures of
the states as contemplated in the
act, It is my opinion that this fact.
In connection with the holding in
the Newberry decision, makes it
unnecessary for a candidate for
United States senator to file any
statement whatever In connection
with his nomination- or election."
House Candidates Affected,
Mr. Daugherty contended that
the only provision of the election
law now in force and effect is the
one which requires such statement
to be filed In connection with the
election of candidates for the house.
Most of the reports on file with
the senate have not been brought
up to date, many relating to pri
mary expenses. Senator France, re
publican, Maryland, reported that
In his primary fight his expendi
tures were $30,795, with contribu
tions of $31,000. Royal W. France,
his brother, headed the list of con
tributors with $15,000.
Senator Townsend, republican,
Michigan, reported that his election
expenses were $700. After the pri
mary Senator Townsend filed a re
port showing the expenditure of
$30,729 for his nomination fight by
"the Townsend-for-Senator club."
Senator Ashhurst, democrat, Ari
zona, received a contribution of $100
from the brotherhood of railway
firemen. He spent $17.
Senator Lodge of Massachusetts
spent $3870, all of which went to
republican clubs in his state, while
"William A. Gaston, his democratic
opponent, spent $1216 in the pri
mary and $4113 in the general elec
tion fight.
, Other Reports Listed.
Some of the other reports show:
Lynn J. Frazier, North Dakota
(primary), $349; Senator King, Utah,
on September 19, contributions
$1679, expenditures same; Senator
Hitchcock, Nebraska, $5412; Carl W.
Riddick, republican, Montana, $510;
Earle B. Mayfield, Texas, $15.50.
Senator La Follette, Wisconsin
received $6418 and spent $5974,
while Senator Kendrick reported the
expenditure of $1418 In Wyoming.
A final accounting by candidates
after the election will give the total
amount of their expenditures, all
statements now on file not having
been brought up to date. The list
with the senate clerk also includes
& number of -candidates who -were
defeated In the primaries in various
etates. Some states require a filing
separately from those sent here.
ELECTION RUMOR SPIKED
Vancouve Candidate for Mayor
Makes Denial in Circular. '
VANCOUVER. Wash., Nov. 1.
(Special.) Rumors that N. E. Allen,
candidate for mayor of Vancouver,
would allow the municipal dock to
be controlled by private interests,
that he would be in Vancouver only
one or two day3 each week of his
administration and that he is a
member of the Ku Klux Klan, were
denied in circulars distributed about
the city by Mr. Allen.
All three statements are absolute
ly false, Mr. Allen declared. He said
he was not affiliated in any way
with the klan and that he had
never attended any meetings of the
organization.

the first "imperial" trousseau pre
pared in Berlin, it is said, since the
marriage of the duchess of Bruns
wick in 1913.
Rites to Be Simple.
The princess' gown is described as
being of mauve chiffon and satin,
lavishly decorated with rhinestones
and steel beads. Mauve was chosen
by the ex-kaiser because this color
was always worn by the late Em
press Augusta at court functions.
It is recalled here that the wedding
text selected by William was also
used when he married Augusta. The
text is: "And now abideth faith,
hope, charity, these three; but the
greatest of these is charity."
It is remarked that Sunday's rites
will, in their severe simplicity, be
Jn direct contrast to William's first
wedding, which was attended with
unparalleled pomp.
ITALIAN ENVOY ' RESIGNS

gathered in Rome and who took
part in yesterday's celebration were
out of the city by this morning. All
night trains carried the legions to
their homes throughout Italy.
At all the railway stations in the
chief cities the fascisti were met by
the heads of the local fascisti, who
had been previously instructed by
the fascisti supreme command to in
struct all to go peacefully to their
homes and avoid disorder.
The excitement and enthusiasm
marking the rise of the fascisti to
power and the inauguration of the
Mussolini government gave place
today to earnest work by Premier
Mussolini and his advisers in be
ginning the task of re-establishing
peace and order throughout Italy.
Leaders Called Together.
Premier Mussolini worked vir
tually the entire night giving in
structions to this end and called
: together in his office today the
leaders of the fascisti, together with
the head of the police department,
the commanders of the various
army corps and the commanders of
the carabineers and royal guards
the very men who up to 48 hours
ago had been charged with the
repression of the fascisti.
The premier, who had by his side
General Del Bono, the supreme
chief of the fascisti troops, listened
carefully to the opinions' and advice
of everyone and then announced his
decisions;
The government of the municipal
ity of Fiume sent an enthusiastic
telegram of congratulation of Sig
ner Mussolini today, tendering him
the warmest greetings from Fiume,
"Immovable in its Italian faith," and
expressing the wish for the "union
of Fiume with the mother country
to which it looks for safety."
Unique Army Promised.
Every hour brings fresh action
on the part of Premier Mussolini
to prove his firm intention of re
storing discipline in all the ranks.
Replying to congratulations re
ceived from the press organizations,
the premier declared today that
when the present exceptional con
ditions are ended he intends to
"safeguard the liberty of the press,
on condition that the press proves
worthy of liberty.
"Liberty," he added, "is not only
a right, but a duty."
To General Diaz, said to have ac
cepted the portfolio of war in order
to grlve Italy one army, Signor Mus
solini declared: "We will give Italy
a unique army, as we have carried
out a unique revolution. Indeed,
throughout the ages there never was
a revolution like ours, in which all
public services continued, commerce
was carried on, and clerks, workmen
and peasants fulfilled their labors."
"With he cafes, wine shops and
beer gardens running full swing,
throughout yesterday, there was
noticeable absence of drunkenness.
When the great procession dispersed
the fascisti scattered through the
city, but even with the freedom of
the city, not an arrest was made for
that cause.
Minister of Industry Rossi, in
agreement with the minister of the
treasury, has taken steps for the im
mediate reopening of the bourse, it
was semi-off icially announced to
day. MISHAP LUCK FOR GIHL

Are Hurt Almost Providential
for Young Woman.
BERKELEY, Cal., Nov. 1. (Spe
cial.) But for a key route train
which ran down a machine, serious
ly injured Donald F. Harris, his
two daughters and a friend and
brought a police Investigation, Miss
Faith Winchester, 15, a sophomore
in Berkeley high school, might have
been really married last night at a
"fake" wedding: ceremony.
The story of the complicated ro
mance begins with Harris, who sug
gested to Miss Winchester and her
mother, Mrs. L. A. Winchester,
whom he has known for some time,
that he and Miss Harris stage a
"fake" wedding on Halloween night,
for the edification of a houseful of
friends. The girl agreed as a lark
and all plans were made, even to
engraved invitations.
Harris, however, without taking
the girl into his confidence, obtained
a genuine marriage license and en
gaged an ordained minister, it is
said. Under the circumstances, the
"fake" would have become a- real
affair. With last night selected for
the occasion, he left his home in a
machine. With him were two of his
six children, Annabelle, 7, Mary, 13,
and a friend.
At Russell and California streets
the machine tangled with a Key
route suburban train. The party
landed in Temple hospital. Harris
was badly hurt The girls escaped
with minor bruises. In the police
investigation that followed the cir
cumstances of the genuine license
and the real minister came out. The
mother of the "bride-elect" and the
girl, panicstricken, have cancelled
everything of a social nature at the
family home. Harris separated from
his wife three years ago.

Townsend was killed outright by !
explosion of a compensator, a start-1
ing device attached to the motor i

when it was thrown into service
after Townsend and McKee had
worked over it throughout the morn- '
ing to put it into condition. I
In the flames and fumes which '
filled the room McKee was over-:
come. Clothes were burned from
the bodies of both the men as they
lay on the floor, Townsend dead,
McKee unconscious.

by the terrific explosion, rushed
downstairs into the flaming and gas
