DEFENSE TO OPEN IN MOVIE SCANDAL Arbuckle's Lawyers Will Present Evidence Today San Francisco, Sept. 20~The defense in the preliminary hearing of Roscoe C. (Fatty) Arbuckle charged with the murder of Miss Virginia Rappe, nounced that it wax prepared to begin Its effort the motion picture comedian Judge Sylvain Lazarus' court resumed late today The prosecution completed its presen- tation of evidence yesterday without having called Mrs. Bambina Maud Del- mont, complaining witness, the move taking the defense by surprise When Assistant District Attorney Isadore Golden told the court that Mrs, Delmont would not be summoned by the prosecution, Frank E. Dominguez, Ar- buckle's chief counsel was on his feet instantly and demanded that she be produced ““In the Interests of truth and jus- tice we demand It,”" he told the court *We demand that Mrs. Delmont be put upon the stand that we may cross ex- amine her. She s the person who swore to the warrant. She is the chief witness. [ never heard of a case in which the complainant was not pro- duced."’ Judge Lazarus told the prosecution it was not necessary to have Mrs. Del- mont testify but warned that they were risking the chance of having the com- plaint dismissed. Later he denled a motion of the defense to quash the charge against the screen comedian and then court adjourned, until late this af- ternoon. Should Judge Lazarus decide that the comedian be freed of the murder charge he will face a charge of man- slaughter brought by the San Fran- clsco county grand jury in connection with Miss Rappe’s death. There is also a possibility that Ar- buckle will be prosecuted for alleged violation of the prohibition law. E. Forrest Mitchell, California fed- eral prohibition director is conducting an Investigation and on its completion, according to Robert H, McCormack, as- sistant to the U. S. attorney general, the liquor angle of t case will be brought before a federal grand jury. McCormack in a statement last night doclaied that he was withholding grand jury action pending a full report from Mitchell. He has intimated that in the course of his investigation of the liquor wupply alleged to have been consumed at the Arbuckle party, he has uncover- ed & whiskey smuggling trafic between Mexico and San Francisco and Los Angeles. an- to clear when Police Conn.

New Haven, Sept. 28.—An appeal to the supreme court of errors will be perfected, it is expected on a degree ontered by Judge Gilson of the probate court here yesterday which declares hat no tax is due or payable to the state of Connecticut, on the transfer of a trust fund under a trust agree- ment made April 8, 1918 between a local flduciary institution as trustees and a woman now deccased. The woman had placed with the institution $150,000 worth of securities on which she received the income and at her death it was provided that this trust should pass to a daughter.

He said that, while 0,000 workmen are idle in Great Britain there were 6,000,000 unemployed in the United States. The labor point of view as expressed by the mayors was that the unemployment situation had reached a point “when on «nd despair may get the upper hand,” although official figures showed the actual amount of idleness less than some time ago.
