The state. it is understood, depends
upon him to shatter the theory held by
er from natural causes OF as result
OF treatment accorded her during her
Illness. DR. Baardslee. according TO
the district attorneys office, diagnos-
ed her illness as coming from an in
ternal injury from the start.

picture actress was dismissed on Sat
urday and prepared 10 depart for his
home when the defense discovered il

points vital to Arbucklc's case.
For the purpose OF bringing out this
testimony they planned to have him
recalled. They did not indicate what
they expected TO bring out from him
today although the report was current
they believed Semnacher knew more
than he has told.
Despite the Importance attached to
the testimony OF Dr.. Beardslee was
degree Of curiosity as 70 what Sem
nacher has forgotten to tell interest
centered today chiefly in the appear
ance on the stand of Mrs. Bambine
Maude Delmont. who. with the death
of Miss Rape. assumed the role of
"avenger."
AS the prosecuting witness. the
state depends upon Mrs. belmont .

most damaging testimony uttered
against him at both tha coroner's in

ing.
And she has sworn TO leave no stone
unturned ITO avenge the sweet mem
ory Of Virginia Rappe."
