This deal represents an interesting
phase In the rapid absorption of space
thrown on the market as the result of
prohibition. When the saloon was
doomed by Federal statute certain real
estate men made dire predictions TO the
effect that the law would disorganize the
renting market through the too sudden
evacuation Of many old properties. some
OF them unsuitable for other than saloon
purposes.
This prophecy. however. was defeated
by the amazing rapidity with which old
saloon and liquor store sites were
snapped up for various purposes. and In
some cases at rentals exceeding the price
paid by the old tenants. Chain shirt
shops. eating places. soda fountains.
drug stores and candy shops replaced
the old bars. In fact there was hardly
a retail business that did not help to rid
the market of the surplus renting space
occasioned by the dry law. This. how
ever. Is the first time that property of
this type has been used in the nation

ment situation.

 Those in the conference with the Judge were City Attorney Comley, As sistant City Prosecutor Vincent L. Keating. for the city; w. F. D. Xiii patrick, Jacob Klein, Robert E. De- Forest, for the jitneurs ;and George D. Watrous and Seth w. Baldwin, for the Connecticut company. Heating and Klein left the conference at one time, returning later. At another time Keating left the conference and returned in company with Justice Wheeler of the Supreme Court.
 Witnesses were on hand who are known to be in the employ of the Connecticut company, Manager Pot ter also being present, being in con- versation with Supt. Flanagan of the police department. It is thought that the trolley company will endeav- or to show that the "club plan" op- orators had broken faith with the wording of the request for the in junction, and the injunction itself by accepting cash fares from persons, trolley company witnesses, who had been riding the buses for the pur- pose of gathering such evidence. It was testimony of similar nature that convicted the Walnut Beach tit- ney operators in the Milford town court several weeks ago.

 "The indictment against Arbuckle will be formally returned in Superior Judge E. P. ShortalPs court tomorrow morning at eleven o'clock.
 "Arbuckle canot be baned out on the manslaughter charge until the in dictment is returned. In any event, he cannot be released on bail until the murder charge is disposed of.
 "when the jury reconvened for the second time last night after being dis missed and pending action at first un- til Monday, it is my opinion they were not clear on the points of the law and asked instructions on definitions Of the word Murder and 'Manslaughter.'
 "The jury's indictment indicates that they believe Arbuckle killed Miss Rappe. They decided that he should be prosecuted for manslaughter, in stead of murder"
 New York, Sept. 14-Mrs- Roscoe Arbuckle, wife of the film comedian, indicted on charge of manslaughter in San Francisco, left today on the goth Century Limited to go to her husbands aid. She was accompan- jed by her mother, Mrs. Flora Dur fee.
 Mrs. Arbuckle, who said she twas bands innocence, declared it will be only a short time before everything g will be cleared up.
 New York, Sept. 14.-"Can he get out on bail?' was the first question asked by Henry Lehrman, fiancee of Virginia RapDe. when informed by the International News Service today that Fatty Arbuckfe had been in- dicted on a charge of manslaughter by the San Francisco grand jury. Upon being informed that bail might be granted he exclaimed: That's too bad.''
 Lehrman declared that the story told him over the long distance tel ephone by Mrs Bambine Delmont did not agree with the stories of her testimony printed in the morning papers.
 'She told me that owing to her | interest in the general party, and the noise. she did not hear Miss Rappe's cries until some time had passed, :, | he said
 According to the published reports Mrs. Delmonte told the grand jury that Arbuckle and Miss Rappe were | together in the comedians room foi an hour After that she heard Miss RapDe scream.

 WHAT NOT TO DO FOR INSOMNIA
 In the treatment of insomnia, which we took up Moray and yesterday, a warm bath taken quietly at bedtime, and not followed by any stimulating fr1cuonS, is effective in many cases In other cases cold pack acts well; a rubber sheet is spread over a sofa and upon this a cloth sheet that has been wrung out in cold water. The patient is enveloped in the latter; an intense and soperific glow of heat follows the initial chilling and then the somnolent patient can be transfer red to bed. In some cases alcohol rub of the chest acts well.
 A glass of hot milk and water, or of matted milk, or hot lemonade, or even just hot water, acts benefcia11y | in drawing away the congestion from the head, in those cases where too | much blood in the head has been the occasion for sleeplessness. On the other hand anemic (poor blooded) pa | tients need StimulantS and blood mak- CTS.
 Any drug which sufficiently masters | the organism to produce sleep is a | dangerous remedy, unless prescribed by ones family doctor. It should not | be used in any other way. By pro- many well-nigh incurable cases of in- somnia have been established How | ever, in cases att ended with much | nervousness. the bromides may safely | be used, in doses of 5 grains in wa ter at bedtmes- I am not saying that | hypnotics must never be used; but that patients should never take them except by the advice of a physician. There are some cases of insomnia | that will yield only to a complete change of scene. An ocean or lake voyage is especially valuable, as being | devoid of eXhauSting excitement and | sightseeing. A soiourn by the sea- shore is often wonderful remedy, by reason of the monotonous and sooth- ing sound of the ocean waves. One feels the very first night as did good | Nick Bottom, an exposition of sleep l coming upon one.
