ment charging manslaughter re-
turned by the county grand jury. But
this arraienment is mere formality. it
was said, and District Attorney Ma

continuance of the manslaughter case
until action has been taken on the
charges of first degree murder, pend
ing against Arbuckle in connection
with Miss Rappe's death.
The district attorney had announced

murder. manslaughter, or turned free
by acquittal. There was also one 9TH

police court at the preliminary eXami-
nation of Arbuckle failed to hold the
comedian to answer to the superior
court on the charge of murder. the
state then would be forced to go to
trial with the manslaughter indict-
ment. Acauittal or conviction of the
murder charge would mean automatic
dismissal of the manslaughter charge,

Angora, Sept 17-"The seclusion of

declared Mufide Ferid Hanem, the
Nationalist novelist and beautiful wife
OF Ahmed Ferid Bey, ex-minister of

interview. THE harem grew out of
the intelligent understanding of the

American and European woman, but

spendthrift Russian woman, the sen

centered American woman.
"To these women, woman's rights
means the right to spend money on
foolish finery, to marry late, and be
childless. They live for the store and
the theater. They are responsible
for a good deal of factory labor ex'

with fashions, novels, and candies.

Gairloch, Scotland, Septf 1.-THE
receipt by Prime Minister Lloyd
George, of Eamonn de Valeras tele-
gram, of yesterday, in which the Irish
leader expressed the view that the
peace negotiations should meet un-
trammelled by any conditions except
those imposed by the facts as they
know them,' is considered to have
brought about change in the situa-
tion.
1t has opened up the possibility that
the prime minister may reply to this
communication before consulting his
cabinet colleagues as he had an
nounced his intention of doing before
taking any further steps in connection
with Irish affairs.
Mr.. Lloyd George passed a good
night at his vacation home here and
was very much better this morning,
the dentist called to Gairloch having
lanced the abscess which caused his
indispositipn. The date of his return
tU-nUndon, however, has not yet been

or in Inverness-depends upon the
rate of his progress.

Comment of the Japanese press a.

The general tone OF the comment

counter proposals might be in order.
Such suggestions had indications of
being. perhaps. semi-official.
