ARBUCKLE GOES
ON TRIAL FOR
MANSLAUCHTER
Each Side in Case Ready for
Action; Scores Of Wit
nesses to Testify.

San Francisco, Nov. 14.-Roscoe c.
(Ftatty) Arbuckle, motion picture
comedian. wen to trial today on a
charge of m~arslaughter growing out
Of the death OF Miss Virginia Rape,
motion picture actress, September 8.
Scores of witnesses on both sides
awaited the call to the stand.
For more than a week the con-
tending Sides have had their decks
stripped for action, and the eagernea
which they collected all possible evil
dence indicates a hard and bitter con
test. The trial was to have started
last Monday, but a local election and
Armistice day so broke up the week
that a postponement until today was
granted.
In the two months that have elaps-
ed since the commission of the allee-
ed criminal act by Arbuckle, the de-
PENDANT has been in prison for several
days, has had a preliminary hearing
on a charge of murder. which was
reduced to the manslaughter charge
on which he went to trial today, and
has been made the defendant in a
federal action charging the posses
sion OF liquor illegally.
The federal charge remains to be
tried, and will presumably await the
action OF the state court.

GARMENT WORKERS
ARE CALLED OUT

New York, Nov 14.-Sixty thou
sand garment workers were called out
on, strike today in protest against the
piece work system and an increase
from Al to 40 hours a week which
was put into effect today. 1ndica-
| lions were that the struggle might be
prolonged.
The international Ladies' Garment
Workers union and 5000 shops were
involved.
All efforts at arbitration ave
failed. Louis Lustig, president Of the
/ Cloak, Suit and Skirt Manufacturers
| Protectice association, charged thai
the union workers failed TO aid the
! employers in their efforts to increase
! production and thus lower prices OF
women's clothing. The strikers
! charged the employers with violating
a trade agreement which left the
question of wori1ing conditions to a
bipartisan commission which was to
have reported November 1. The piece
work system means q return Of the

HOLDS UNIQUE RECORD.
New York, Nov. 14.-Old Bill
Lowney. whose life has been devoted
to- opening oysters. claims that when
he split 100 of them in three minutes,
three aud one-quarter seconds not
long ago he established a world rec
ord. He has challenged any and all
oysrerrnen 10 meet him in competition
with a barrel Of hivalves and a knife.
Old Bill was born up Cape Cod way
G. years ago, and he knows the names
and records of all the speedy oyster
openers along the coast. He has two
loves--oystars and the handles he
makes for his knives. His hates are
those who spoil the flavor Of bivalves
by dipping them in water, and the
uneducatcd eaters who use sauces on
them.
