Amateur Team of Washington

For the second time this season
the Drcadnaughts will line up
against the Shamrocks, one of the
best amateur teams that ever play
ed in this city on Sunday. On their

largely attended. There will be a
large crowd from Washington down
to see this game, so Alexandria

This will probably be the last game
of the season. but if the weather
continues to hold good, our lasr

WASHINGTON
DAYBY DAY

Washington, Sept. 29.-Events arc
so shaping themselves in the United
States Senate, that the Democratic
minority with little skillful maneu-
vering has reached a position from
which it expects to severely Jolt the
plans Of the administration III handl-
ing the treaties, taxation and otne.'
important legislation promised the
people during the election campaign.
Republican leaders gave the treat

secure in the belief that opposition
from Democrats could not assume
serious proportions. DemocraIic
members however, under the leader
ship of Carter Glass, Of Virginia,
and a few others has been so enllv-
encd that the treaties are to be
sidet:acked. that the Republican
majority might organize a steam

Still flushed with confidence the
majority brought up the tax bill. /,
was expected to have easy sailing sc

states, proposed to throw whole
handful of monkey-wrenches into the

united to oppose it. With the ala 0

Police Judge in San Francis
co Reduces Charge to
That for Lesser Crime
STATE ASKS RELEASE
Women Crowd Forward to Shake
Hand of Movie Star When Decision
is Announced

Ran Francisco, Sept. 2S.-The mur-
der complaint against Roscoe c.
("Fatty") Arbuckle was reduced to
manslaughter yesterday by Police
Judge Sylvan J. Lazarus. who held
him to answer to the Superior Court
for trial on the lesser charge growing
out Of the death of Miss Virginia
Rappe following drinking party in
Arbuckle's hotel suite here.
Arbuckle was released from city
prison last night on $4,000 cash bali
and today will return to Los Angeles
with his wife and her mother.
Judge Lazarus held that the evid-
ence introduced by the District At
torney during the siX-day hearing did
not warrant the comedians being held
for murder. Miss Rappe, Los An
geles motion-picture actress, died Sep
tember 8, four days after the affair
in Arbuckle's rooms.
Il have decided to make holding
for manslaughter, finding there ~
enough in the defendants conduct to
warrant his trial on that charge,
said Judge Lazarus.
Il feel no CRIMINAL assault or at
tempted assault was committed by the
defendant on Miss Rappe," he said. Il
also feel bound by the grand jury,
whose Indictment for manslaughter
was voted after having more evidence
than was permitted to hear"
Arbucklc heard the decision without
movement or comment.
As court adjourned dozen women
rushed forward to shake Arbuckle's
hand. As he went into the Judges
chamber his wife, Mrs. Minta Durfee
.Arbuckle, collapsed, and he held her
up and quietcd her in an effectionate
manner. Her mother, Mrs. Flora Dur
foe. meanwhile smoothered the hair
back from the comedians forehead.
The well-known Arbuckle smile did
not appear, however, and ne merely
said thank you" in response to the
'handshakes and greetings Of "Congra-
tuations, Roscoe" from various peo-
pie.
Assistant District Attorney Milton
T. U'Ren and Isadore Golden asked
Judge Lazarus if he placed no cred
cncc of Miss Rappe's cries "he hurt
me" or the screams heard by the hotel
maid, but the Court said they 'were
not sufficient to implicate Arbuckle i'll
the commission OF crime The Dis
+iict Attorneys aids also contende''
that the court could only either hold
the defendant to answer for murder
or dismiss the case altogether, but
Judge Lazarus said that was not his
understanding of the law.

Grand Camp, Confederate Veterans,
Department of Virginia, which as

Harding Writes Alexandrian

President Harding gave an interest
inc Interpretation of the duties OF {,
citizen today in reply to letter tron'
Charles s. Stoler, chairman OF tnt
publicity committee of the Republi-
can Club of Alexandria.
Mr.. Stoler asked the President Il
give an expression on what ne though
was the first duty of citizen. Here
is what he wrote to Mr. StOier:
My Dear Mr.. Stoler:
1t seems to me you have yourself
suggested one of the most importah-
duties OF every citizen. You observe
in the last election for Governor OF
Virginia only $4,000 votes were cast,
while in 1920 the total, with the wo-
men voting, rose to $4,000, viii!
there was a total possible qualliieC
vote of about 100000.
Quite regardless of the effect o.
the fortunes Of particular politica!
parties, | am impressed that there
need particularly for an appeal K
voters to perform their duty at
ballot box on election day. If the re-
suit of the full vote in Virginia or
any other state should prove disast-
Gus to the party of which you or
chance to be member we would
least know that we have heard the
voice of the people, and would be more
reaGl 10 acquicscc in their decision.
There is no more important du,
for the citizen than this of voting
the one dav in the year when his vot
means something.
"If YOU can succeed in securing
Virginia this fall the largest vote
that the state ever cast, ! will per-
sonally feel that you have accom-
plished notable civic advantage
quite regardless of the political resui
az think that it will not be impror
er for me to add that | shall have. Xix"
yourself, no fear of the political &c
suit, if an expression can be secured.
