SAN FRANCISCO, March 16.-
Early selection of jury to try Ros-
coe G. (Fatty) Arbuckle for the third
time on manslaughter charge for the
death of Miss Virginia Rapp, appeared
probable with the resumption of the
case today. Shortly before the close
of court yesterday the prosecution,
having exercised one peremptory chal-
lenge, waived its second challenge,
thus offering to accept the jury as it
stood. The defense, however, used
it's second challenge, and the interro-
cation of veniremen continued.

REFUSAL OF EARL
OF DERBY TO TAKE
PLACE, Chief TOPIC
tBy Associated Press)

LONDON, March 16.-The Earl Of
Derby's rejection of the Indian secre-
taryship, coming after failure of the
Unionists meeting on Tuesday to give
Prime Minister Lloyd George vote
of confidence forms the chief topic of
conversation in political quarters
where the effect on Lloyd Georges
tenure of office is warmly debated.
The refusal of Lord Derby to enter
the government is believed to have
been final and even the most ardent
coalitionists are manifestly anxious In
view of the failure of Tuesdays meet
ing and the obvious hardening of the
determination of many Conservatives
to cut loose from the coalition.
The premiers political enemies de-
clare it is impossible for him now to
retain his position as head of the ad-
ministration while depending mainly
upon Unionist votes, and urge that it
is time he recognized the fact and
made his threatened resignation defi-
mite.
Premier Resting.
Meanwhile no word comes from
Criccietht, Wales, regarding the pre-
mier's intentions. He is spending his
time in resting, golfng and gardening
and as his friends say. thinking
, things out" while current decisions
are left to Austen Chamberlain and,
as is widely asserted, the disintegra-
tion of the coalition proceeds apace.
1t is stated in some quarters that
Mr.. Lloyd George has decided to pro-
long his stay in Wales to see how far
the ferment will work before he de-
clares his hand.
! The question whether after all he
will go to Genoa is debated in political
circles and it is suggested he is less
eager than heretofore to participate in
the conference. 1t is also thought
that, if the report that Premier Poin
care of France will not attend proves
true, Mr.. Lloyd George will be still
| less reluctant to abandon the trip.
1t has been repeatedly stated that
it was his desire to attend the Genoa
meeting that mainly held him to the
premiership, and it is thought that il
he now resolves to forego the visit his
resignation will soon be made final.

First Congressional Contest
of the Year.
DINNER PAIL FACTOR
by MARK SULLIVAN

WASHINGTON, March 16.-Those
who follow the signs of the times in
political sense will take some interest
in an isolated election for congress
man to be held in the Third district
of Maine next Monday. 1t is the first
vacancy to be filled by an election this
year, and party managers, as well as
all who take more than passing in
terest in politics, will watch 1t to get
such light as they may on the trend
of the country with regard to the gen
eral congressional elections later on
in the year.
Normally the Third Maine district is
heavily Republican. IL was carried by
Harding by $4,000 to $4,000, and the
Democrats can't hope to elect their
candidate on Monday. But they do
hope to cut down this majority of
21,000 to something below 10000; and
if they achieve this, they will show
the result to the country with consid-
cradle pride and confident anticipa-
tion as TO next November.
Undeniable Trend
There is an undeniable trend toward
the Democrats in Maine. An election
for mayor in the city of Saco, held
early this month. was carried by the
Democrats for the first time in IL
years. Some persons in Washington
