the commission OF three physicians and
chemists who will appear today to re :
port the result Of their microscopic OK :
animation OF the vital organs Of the
dead girl.
Their tests were made under the
order of the court. They were directed
to determine by scientific examination
whether Virginia Rappe's physical con =
dition was such that she might have
died as the result OF a spontaneous in =
tcrnal rupture or whether her injuries
could not have occurred without at
tendant external violence of one sort
or another.
lf the physicianS-three men with
colorless voices and very bright spec =
tacles--report that Virginia was in
normal health on the day when she
went to Fatty's party in the st. Francis
Hotel and that the chronic weakness so
often mentioned in the testimony did
not exist, tho whole structure of the dc =
fcnse built mp by Fatty's lawyers and
witnesses will be severely rocked.
Neither Case Strong
No one here is disposed TO take
Tatty's own story without lot of salt.
II is doubtful whether the jurys mind
is not yet wide open. Neither the Dis
triCt Attorney nor the defense has
established what is ordinarily known
MS 'strong case. The evidence
against Fatty is merely circumstantial.
Virginia lappe entered one of the
rooms Of his suite apparently in normal
health, Half an hour or an hour later
Arbuclilc unlocked the door Of the room
from the inside and admitted others OF
his guests, who found the girl in an
agony Of partial dclirium and, as it
proved later, fatally injured
The witnesses on whom tho defense
has relied most heavily were Irene
Morgan. nurse Mrs. Neighbours and
a few others who testified that they had
seen tho girl on other occasions seize,
with paroxySmS which were described
by the lawyers as Symptomatic of an
organic weakness of sort that might
have been expected to terminate fatally

So tho cause Of tho girls death is
still matter of doubt which neither
the prosecution nor tho License has
been able 70 explain or demonstrate
away. In the light of all this the final
report Of the medical commission which

Eight Hours OF Oratory
Eight hours of oratory will follow
the commissions report, and then the
jury will retire. It was agreed before
the end Of yesterdays sessions that the
defense and the prosecution shall each
have four hours for the closing ad-
dresses to the jury. Mr.. McNab sug-
sested that the case be permitted to

Mr.. l. C'Rcn. one OF Brady's assistants,
rose nobly to his feet to observe in a
slccty drawl that surely it was no in
tentiou of the defense TO deny the right
of conference to the people.
The fact is that there was something
to be said ON the side of Mr.. Schmulo-

corning their effect on the human sys-
TEN and the general benefits conferred
by them. For instance, experiments
have proved that animals can live in
definitely on diet of milk alone. But
supply all the constituents of milk
separately - proteins, carbohydrates
fats and salts, in fact, all the known
food elements-and the animal wastes
away and finally dies.
Several theories are held in regard
to this problem. Some scientists in
cline to classify vitamineS as struc-
tural compounds of living tissues,
which function along the same lines
as the other tissues. Others relegate
them to the "catalysts," those strange
substances which have been aptly de-
fined as chemical pan sons" as they
accomplish the chemical union of
various substances without being
themselves affected. Many think that
they are derived originally from
plants, and one well-known scientist
The Republican. [volume] (Oakland, Md.) 1877-current, 1921-04-14

states that they are always present
in natural foodstuffs instinctively con.
sumed by men and animals.
At the present time, three types of
vitamine are known to exist: The
water-soluble variety, found in milk,
yeast, and other substances; the fat
soluble ones, which are present in but
ter and egg yolks and a third class,
designated as "antiscorbutic." which is
found in number of fresh vegetables
and fruits and also in the outside
husk of rice. Lack of these necessary
food constituents results in various
ills-scurvy, beri-beri, and other dis
eases.
In fact, the Importance of the anti
scorbutic factor was discovered purely
accidentally, as q result of an epidem-
ic of beri-beri among the relocating
Eastern nations after modern milling
methods obtained in these countries
and the surface layer of the rice was
removed. When an extract of this
husk was eventually supplied, the dis.
ease was prevented.
