The streets of this city of three million were empty of civilians because of a curfew imposed after the military revolt Tuesday. Many people have been stranded in office buildings and hotels— none allowed to leave even to return to their homes or to ob tain food and drink. All busi nesses were closed. First indications in the coup’s aftermath were that casualties were numerous. But there was no way to determine the exact number of dead or wounded. Military authorities, who control the only radio stations allowed to broadcast made no mention of any figures. Newsmen received reports of gunfights between soldiers and armed workers occupying fac tories to protest the coup, which toppled the Western Hemis phere’s first freely elected Marx ist government. Allende had called on workers at the start of the coup to occupy factories in defense of his three- year-old government. It was his last message. The military junta said Wednesday that the 65-year- old Allende, who dedicated his life to politics, had killed himself as troops closed in on the presi dential palace. Chile's ambassador to Britain, Alvaro Bunster, said in London that he doubted the junta's version. “I don’t think President Allende committed suicide,” he said. “If he is dead, he has been killed. Only a few weeks ago Allende said he would not com mit suicide whatever happened.” The Peronist newspaper El Mundo in Buenos Aires, Argen tina, said it had learned from one of Allende’s bodyguards that Allende was killed. Police officials threatened to “blow up buildings if necessary” to silence snipers. MSC BARBER SHOP For your shine needs come by and visit Robert Freelin, who's an expert on shoe shines.
