cision of the District Attorney to
prosecute on the charge of murder:
After the preliminary hearing on
the murder charge next Thursday be-
fore Police Judge Lazarus, it will be
within the power of the latter to hold
Arbuckle for trial before the Superior
Court on charge Of murder, or, IL IN
the opinion of the court, the evidence
does not substantiate n charge of mur-
der, to hold the defendant for trial
on the charge of manslaughter, or, as
an extreme measure to dismiss the
charge
Should Judge Lazarus decide that
the evidence to support murder
charge is weak, and should he reduce
the charge to manslaughter, Arbuckle
then could gain his liberty on bail,
pending trial in the Superior Court
Should Judge Lazarus hold Arbuckle
for trial before the Superior Court on
the murder count, his trial will pro-
ceedt before % jury in the Superior
Court.
Jury Can Ask Life Term
In case Of conviction on the murder
charge, the maximum penalty is hang
ing. or, on the Recommendation of the
jury. life Imprisonment in the state
penitentiary.
1t is within the discretion Of the
trial jury, even though the defendant
is on trial on charge of murder, to
find him guilty Of the lesser crime of
manslaughter, or to fix and reduce the
degree of the crime.
Should this occur, and Arbuclsle be
convicted on charge Of manslaughter,
the maximum penalty for this offepse
is imprisonment in the state peniten-
tiary not to exceed ten years, or less
if the jury so recommends.
SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 1s (By The
Associated Press ).-District Attorney
Brady has the support Of the Board of
County Supervisors in his prosecution
of Arbuckle, it was shown to-day when
the finance committee of that body &p
propriated $1,000 for immediate ex-
penses of the trial and promised more
when needed. Brady had asked the
board for additional funds, declaring
much wealth would be expended by the
defense.
A development to-day was the an
nouncement that DR.. Arthur Beardslee,
house physician at the St. Francis Ho-
tel and the physician who first attend
ed Miss Rappe, is being sought by the
authorities. Milton T. U'Ren, Assist
ant District Attorney, announced late
to-day that he had not been located
and asked the newspapers to assist in
the search. DR.. Beardslee is wanted
for the purpose Of giving testimony
before the grand jury regarding GER
tain phases of the medical attention
given Miss Rape, U'Ren said.
Mrs. Bambina Marde belmont, who
swore to the murder charge on which
Arbuckle to-day appeared in court,
viewed Miss Rappe's body to-day and
is reported to have suffered a partial
collapse. The body, according to pres
'ent plans, will be taken to Los Angeles
on the Lark Southern Pacific express
train, late tonight.
Robert H. Mccormack, assistant
United States Attorney General in
charge of liquor prohibition prosecu-
tions, said that he expected to present
to the Federal grand jury Tuesday evil

Federal Agents Enter Colonies
Ten special agents of the Federal

to-day en- route TO "Movieland," sent
by Special Attorney General Robert II.

inve estigation of conditions in Holly
wood and other motion picture centers
around Los Angeles, as result of Ar

E. Forrest Mitchell, state enforce
ment agent, is already in Los Angeles,
and it is believed the orders of Mr..
Mccormack were issued as a result of
advices from him on conditions dis
closed.
District Attorney Brady, at confer
ence with the Federal prosecutor,
turned over all of the evidence he had
obtained with reference to the use of
liquor at Arbuckles entertainment.
"No matter how high the investiga-
tlon reaches, spare no one," MIR.
Mccormack told his agerts to-day.
"The guilty must be punished. The
conditions must be so changed that
another Fatty Arbuckle orgy will be
rendered impossible"
An indication that orders had come
from Washington for thorough
cleanup of the whole situation was
seen not only in McCormack's activity.
but also in the fact that J ohm Exnicios,
field agent of the Rocky Mountain dis
trict for the National Prohibition Com
missioner, is also on his way to Los
Angeles to head a flying squadron.

Arbuckle to
Go ON Trial
For Murder

J that the correct charge involved in the
Arbuckle case was murder. Under such
circumstances it is his imperative legal
duty to proceed with the complaint al
lcging murder now on file against the
defendant Mr.. Arbuckle.
at is the sole province Of the trial
Jury to determine, after the evidence
has been taken, in the event it should
find the defendant. guilty, whether the
verdict should be one OF murder. man
slaughter or any other crime compre-
hended in the charge, and also to fix
the degree thereof"
The concluding paragraph of Brady's
statement reveals that Arbuckle, al
though he is brought to trial on n
charge of murder, in case of convic-
tion, need not necessarily be found
guilty Of murder. 1t is within the dis
erection Of the trial jury to return a
ve.dict finding the defendant either
guilty of murder, fixing the degree, or
guilty. of manslaughter, with a recon-
mehdation as to the penalty.
His $25,000 Car In Danger
As result Of Investigations by the
Federal prohibition officials who went
to Los Angeles to discover the source
Of the abundance of liquor that flowed
at the Arbuckle party in the st. Francis
Hotek and their return to this city
with what is said to be strong evil
dence, Arbuckle may see his gorgeous
$4,000 automobile, which has been the
envy af his associates in the film world,
seized by the government as the
vehicle, which iilicitly conveyed much
of the liquor from Los Angeles to the
scene Cd the tragic Labor Day rcvelry
here.
The Federal agents have been in
formed that only half of the forty
quarts os liquor said to have been con-
sumed at the party was brought here
in Arbuckle's machine. The rest was
supplied ia, Arbuckle in the hotel by a
"tall, thin man" and dark stranger"
The source of the liquor mysteriously
obtained ba' Arbuckle in the hotel is
being thoro ughly investigated.
The first outsider, besides his man
ager and attorneys, who has talked
with Arbucld'e was friend from Los
Angeles, who called upon his yester-
day. The fact was brought out in the
conversation that the comedian ex-
pected to return to motion pictures if

said to-day that Arbuckle was confident

Mum ON Building Trades
Former Walking Delegate
Without Funds; To Ask
Dismissal of Indictments

Under the parole granted by the
Parole Commission, Peter Stadtmuller,
enc of the lieutenants of Robert B.
Brindell, the former building trades
labor boss, was released from Black
wells Island yesterday. Stadtmuller
had served three of the six months
sentence imposed by Justice McAvoy
after his conviction on charge of
extortion.
Stadtmuller was taken to the Munic-
ipal Building yesterday morning. where
the parole papers were made out and
he was released.
Accompanied by his brother, John
Stadtmuller, the former walking DEL
egate went to the office of his attorney,
Andrew F. Murray, at so Church Street.
Murray is an old friend of Stadtmuller
and his brother, having known them
during his five years of service as
Assemblyman. Stadtmuller said he was
going out to look for job, but beyond
that had nothing to say. He is car
penter by trade and was foreman of a
squad of carpenters during his term.
Silent on Labor Question
Stadtmuller would not answer ques-
tion as to whether he thought he would
have trouble with the Building Trades
Council, saying that he was not famil-
lar enough with conditions at present
to be able to discuss them.
From his lawyers office Stadtmuller
went to the Hospital for Ruptured and
Crippled, where his mother, eighty
suffered in fall. He then went to his
home at 106 East 176th Street.
Attorney Murray said that Stadtmul-
Ter, SO far as he knew, was without
funds, and that while he was i'm
prisoned his children had obtained en-
ployment by which they supported
themselves. Regarding the two indict-
inents still pending against Stadtmul-
Ter, Mr.. Murray said he would make
few days, and that he expected the
motions would be granted without op-
position.
McAvoy Urged Reduction of Term
Eli Neumann, of the Parole Commits
SION, said that there had been no de-
lay in Stadtmuller's release. In ap-
proving the six months sentence, he
said, Justice McAvoy, in letter to the
commission, remarked that he never
theless would recommend a reduction
to three months, because of the as
sistance Stadtmuller had given the
prosecution and the promises that had
been made to him.
The Parole Commission at first re-
duced the sentence to five months, but
upon the plea of Special Deputy At
torney General Stanley L. Richter took
off two more months, making the term
three.
Stadtnuller was charged with having
collected graft money for Brindell from
contractors. He was convicted on June
13 last.

Washington, d. c., Aug. l2.-The

The condemnation proceedings alone
marked new record in that sort Of
litigation as far as the Bronx was con-
cerned. And the searches for proper
titles were monumental. Beginning the
work in 1918 the commission tried as far
as possible to keep out of the courts and
negotiated for the greater portion through
private sale. This saved large sums of
money az condemnation, besidee being
