Is there sroing to be a scandal in the Aemrican diplomatic service? is a question which many persons here are asking In connection with recent events in the United States embassy, which have for some time been kept in the family, ao to speak, in order to prevent an open rupture, and with the general hope that the whole affair might blow over with time and patience.

Now, however, that Post Wheeler, the first secretary of the embassy, is on his way to Washington, having been summoned by cable to explain certain allegations against him, the affair is becoming a matter of general discus sion. It is difficult to present the exact facts of the situation, but the one thing certain, as admitted by those concerned, is that another member of the embassy corps came here with strong feelings against Mr. and Mrs. Wheeler. This sentiment, which Is regarded as something more than an antipathy, is said to date back to the time when Wheeler and thla other official were attached to another poat, and Wheeler, as charge de'affairns, objected to his fellow diplomat's attention to a woman at the same hotel us not befitting his position.

This action by Wheeler, according to the story, was resented and the rebuked official has cherished a grudge ever since. After Mr. Wheeler was transferred to Rome the incident might have come to an end, if, by an unfortunate coin cidence, the state department had not some time afterward given the other diplomat a place in the embassy here. The illfeeling continued and man ifested itself in a long series of Incidents. Tho two members of the em bassy were not on speaking terms.

In ono way or another unfavorable reports were spread about the Wheelers In the American colony and Italian society, and the unpleasant situation became known to other diplomatic missions and the Italian foreign office. Last June Mr. Wheeler was sudden ly ordered to the legation at Rio de Janeiro. Ills friends attributed this to hostile Influence here, but the Wheelers were able to have this transfer re- clnded. The effect of this incident, however, was to accentuate the conflict in tho embassy.

A few weeks ago a report got about that tho Italian minister of finance was Investigating irregularities concerning the exemption of foreign diplomats from paying duty on gasoline imported for automobiles, and that the inquiry concerned Mr. Wheeler espec ially. A story about this, which mentioned no names, appeared in the Socialist paper the Avantl, which printed It under the heading, "A Diplomatic Smuggler." To an inquiry from Ambassador O'Brien, the minister of finance sent word that no blame ws attached to Mr. Wheeler In this matter. Nevertheless, according to Mr.

Wheolor's friends, attempts have been made to undermine the secretary at Washington, with tho idea that he may be transferred from his present post even if he is not dismissed. Something of this kind, it is said, recenty happened in the case of the American vice consul at Milan, who, altho his Innocence was entirely proved after a thoro Inquiry made by the embassy at Rome, and Mr. Smith, the consul, at Genoa, was transferred to another post. Americans here say that if such results are possible, any official in the United States diplomatic service is at the mercy of any person who may chooso to start a campaign against him. Such a condition of affairs, they urge, is seriously detrimental to tha prestige of American diplomats, inasmuch as other countries act in the opposite manner.

If they are convinced that one of their agents abroad is un justly attacked they maintain him at his post for the purpose of showing that ha enjoys the confidence of his government, and that the accusations brought against him are groundless. O.Biien, discussing today the charges, said: "1 am more than pained that this should have arisen at the close of my diplomatic career. I have gone into tho matter very carefully, and say without tho slightest hesitation that there Is not the least shadow of evidence against Wheeler, but the unfortunate part of It Is that some mud sticks when thrown, and it is a deep roils to injure the name of a public ofliciul with so clean a record as Wheeler." LIVERPOOL, Sept. 20. Aboard tho liner Baltic, which was yesterday off Queenstown, on her way to New York, was I'ost Wheeler, lirst secretary of the ambassador at Rme, who has been summoned home to answer charges made by an American.

20. Suddenly abandoning his air of resignation and perverted martyrdom, Hans' Schmidt, the supposedly mad priest who con-fesed to murdering and dismembering Anna Aumuller, declared in the Tombs today that he would fight for his life. For the first time a look of terror came into the prisoner's eyes at a mention of the death chair and, while exercising in the corridor, Schmidt confided to a fellow prisoner: "I will fight for my life. If District Attorney Whitman expects to get anything out of me he will find himself up against a stone wall." However, on account of Schmidt's erratic mental condition a sudden change of attitude with revelations of more ghastly crimes would not surprise the police. When Schmidt was asked about a confession he is alleged to have made yesterday relative to euphanasla he shrugged his shoulders and refused to talk.

One of the beliefs of Schmidt's disordered mind is In the doctrine of painless death for cripples or persons who suffer. The police believe that if Schmidt had not been arrested he would be dealing in wholesale murder. Schmidt pretended to make a beginning in his dreadful work of blood among the par ishioners of St. Joseph's church where ha was assistant rector. In order to dispose of his victims Schmidt had stolen a book of death certificates from a physician and these were to have been forged.

LONDON, Sept 20. Vera Harris, tho young girl who is believed by the police to be married to Dr. Ernest Mu- ret, tho New York criminal involved with Hans Schmidt, tho renegade churchman, was found today. Sho is employed in tho dressmaking depart mcnt of a big west end establishment owned by Bourne Holllngsworth. She has been living tinder the namo of Vwa llarman recently.

I believe that 1 had a narrow escape frrtm the same fate as Anna Aumuller in New York," said the girl. "I feared Dr. Muret and am afraid to say anything against him. Witnesses were found by the police this afternoon who, it Is believed, saw Schmidt was arrested Inspector muller girl to the Hudson river on the evening of September 23, 24 hours after the murder. Two of the witnesses live In Englewood, N.

J. Ever since Scvhmidt was arrested Inspector Faurot has been searching for persons who saw him throw bundles containing parts of tho slain girl's body from the Fort Lee ferryboat. A resident of Englewood, N. told tho polico he had seen a man throw a package Into tho Hudson river from a feryboat early In September and In-spector Faurot said thLs person would bo taken to tho Tombs to identify the prisoner. Inspector Fourot said today that even if Schmidt repudiated his confess, sion tho authorities had enough evi dence to convict.

20. After a pretended investigation, stretched out over six months, the. military court Kave out a white-washing decision here yesterday that the deaths of President Francisco I. Madero and Vice President Jose Maria Pino Suarez were "not brought about by a punishable crime." The "investigation" was started by the military fommandant of the federal district, immediately on the conclusion of the ten days' battle in tl Streets of Mexico last February which resulted in Provisional President Ilu-erta coming into power. The result of the commandant's inquiry was forwarded to the permanent military tribunal, which continued the examination of witnesses.

Senor Perez-Romero, brother-in-law of the late President Madero and confidential agent here of the Mexican constitutionalists, characterized the report of the investigating committee as a "farce." "From independent channels and from all evidence that we have gathered," he said, "wc have learned that Major Francisco Cardenas frequently has boasted in many public places that he killed Madero himself, yet he was never even taken into custody. "I personally made an investigation after Senor Madero was killed, visiting every house for many blocks along the route that tho automobile was supposed to have passed, but 1 could find no no one who heard any shots fired. All our evidence shows that both President Madero and Vice President Suarez were assassinated in the national pal-aco before being taken to the penitentiary." Mr. and Mrs. Francisco I.
