Pete, I've posted elsewhere that Michael's extraction of a confession from Carlo was simply the shark circling his prey, nothing more. As the novel states, there was more than one time that Michael felt that cold chill of excitement over concealing his real feelings in anticipation of a later moment of revenge. His tete a tete with Carlo was another one of those times.
Carlo didn't arrange anything; it was Barzini.
