On the other hand, they realize that IL
the film star takes the stand, the dis
trict attorney on cross examination Is pre-
pared to ask many unpleasant questions
and doubtless will endeavor to bring in
spicy details of other Arbuckle parties.
To date, in support of its theory that
virginia Rappe came to her injuries in
some other manner than assault by Ar
buckle, the defense has advanced num-
ber of possibilities
1. That immersion in cold bath
caused the ruptured bladder by mus
cular contraction. ~
.. That vomiting produded suffi-
ciently violent cOntractions to effect
a rupture.
B. That spontaneous rupture may
have occurred due to overdstension
of the organ as the result of drink
ing alcoholic connections to excess.
4. That partial rupture could have
existed for days without the victims
knowledge.
DR.. A. w. Collins, defense expert, sug-

more. The State was convinced that they
had shattered his testimony. They ex-

PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 24.-The
vicissitudes of politics are strikingly
Indicated when a comparison is made
of the personal of the Washington
conference with that of the peace
congress at Paris.
But little more than two years
have elapsed since the Versailles
peace was signed and yet we find
but one of the world figures whose
name was subscribed to that docu-
ment now sitting at the Washington
conference-Arthur James Balfour.
Wilson, clemenceau, Lloyd George,
Venizelos, Orlando, SOnnino, Vesnitch
and Paderewsh are among the many
notable names on the roll of the
missing. Among the delegates we
find some new names and other
names of those who have served the
public in the past and have now come
back but these latter emphasize
more fully the changes which the
wheel of fortune makes.
