CAMBRIDGE FAIR OPENED
With fine OUTLOOK
Exhibitions BoothsS how The Bust
ness Men Are Right After Bust
ness. Splendid Line OF Exhibits.

The Cambridge Fair opened and
while early in the day the sky was
overcast and indicated that there
might be a great deal of rain by ten
o'clock the clouds had lifted so as
to make the way very pleasant one.
Last night the exhibition at the
Long Wharf drew hundreds of per-
sons, everyone of whom seemed to
be greatly pleased with the display
but the management states that the
display last night was but small
one compared with those which Will
be held each night this week at the
Fair grounds.
The large number of horses enter
ed in the races would lead to the be-
lief that the hOrsemen Will have
great sport during the next three
days. The Baltimore excursion ar

this hour. giving three or four hours
for the eXcursiOniSts at the Fair. 1t

MURDER END
OF PARTY in
DAVENPORT.
Mrs. Bessie Rohrer Found
Dead in Hotel-No
Crime Glue.

Mrs. Bessie Rohrer, %, was found
dead at o'clock last evening in
her room in the Riverview hotel,
10712 Main street, Davenport.
Police said her death followed a
drunken bebauch which ended eth
er in a brzWi or came to a climax
when she stumbled and fell against
some sharp corner. Numerous
bruises about her face and head,
however, made the theory of an ac-
cidental death seem improbable.
There are no clues and only an
indefinite story of the crime.
The woman was said to be in her
room all day. John Harrison, pro-
prietor of the hotel, found the body.
He said he knew of no one who
had been visiting Mrs. Rohrer dur
ing the day. An emptied whisky
bottle in the room furnished only
hint of the party which preceded
the tragedy. Efforts were being
made to procure finger prints from
the flask to open some avenue for
investigation of the crime.
There are two possible theories
to account for Mrs. Rohrer's death
Coroner Cantwell said. One is
that she died as result OF brutal
beating, and the other that she had
fallen while in a drunken stupor
and inflicted injuries which caused
her death. Alcoholism and loss Of
blood were contributing factors to
her death. The injury above her
right eye, the. worst one, was
scarcely in itself enough to cause
death" "

San Francisco, Calf, Dec. s.
Omitted Press. )-The San Francis
co grand jury will be asked by Dis
trict Attorney Matthew Brady to
start an immediate investigation Of
an alleged attempt to approach and
intimldate Mrs. Helen Nj. Hubbard
of Arbuckle's jury, whose solid
stand for the Comedians conviction
resulted in disagreement of the
jury and failure to acquit the COM
edian.
Mrs. Hubbard in a statement
charged that Gus Olivia, a commits
sion mer chant, and G. C. Irwin, an
attorney and friend of OliVa's, ap-
preached her husband, T. W. H.D-
bard, an attorney, on Saturday and
endeavored to get him to commun-
icate with her IN the jury room by
letter, urging her to acquit Arbuck-
Ie.
Mrs. Hubbard also made d charge
of intimidation against several Of
her fellow jurors, including August
t'ritze, foreman of the jury.
San Francisco, Dec. 5.-(United
Press "A murky atmosphere of
whispered or implied charges OF
all sorts was left behind today by
the manslaughter trial of Roscoe
Arbuckle, which ended with dis
agreement and discharge of the
jury.

cipal characters in the unfinished
drama, charging that propaganda"
had been used to influence the ju--
the many.
Many RumOrS.
RumorS started when the bailifs
adopted the practice of changir g
looms for the jury. After Satur-
day noon no two sessions wei c
held in the same room. Many were
in ignorance of exactly where the
jury was meeting Reports-un-
confirmed of course-had it that
dictaphones hidden in the walls
were responsible for the shift of
rooms.
Arbuckle was to leave today for
Southern California for few days
Of rest. He will then return 10
San Francisco to join his lawyers
in laying plans for the second trial
Which will begin Jan. 8. He issued
statement late yesterday, de-
claring that "one woman" on the
jury had prevented a verdict and
claiming that the result is a moral
if not a legal acquittal.
When the jury reported TO the
court the foreman stated the count
was ten to two for acquittal.
State Spent Little.

What went on behind the boltei
doors of the jury room was soma-

meager light shed by formal state

of the jury.

SUPREME COURT
BANS PICKETING

Washington, Dec. 5.-Organized
labor has no right to picket during
strike, when it involves impor-
tunity, the supreme court today
declared.
The decision was delivered in an
appeal brought by the American
Steel Foundries company growing
out of a strike at its plant at Gran
ite City, III.
The court in its decision, declar-
ed no broad rule could be laid in
the matter of picketing, however,
but that each case must be consid-
cred on its merits to determine
whether the picketing constituted
restraint and intimidation.
