The plate holder can be set edge
wise in the cabinet on insulating sup
ports, requiring very little room. and
the sliding element can be adjusted
by a rubber or bakclite rod extending
through the end of the cabinet. or, if
finer adjustment is desired, a rack and
pinion can be operated by Il knob in

If greater capacity is required two
or more such plate holders can be
placed side by side. with great economy

obtained by operating each holder, or

others.

one or more thickness Of micanite or
other insulating papers can be mounted

SIMPLE RHEoSTAI

With this rheostat in the filament
circuit Of the detector tube, very fine
adjustments are possible.
The construction is quite simple. 4
tube Of high heat " resisting material.
such as porcelain. is almost filled with
carbon grains. Contact is made to the
grains by a small piece of metal sheet
which serves to keep the grains in posi-
ton.
At the front or panel end, n ~plunger
Is inserted. The shaft Of the ~plunger
should be threaded and the base should
be just of correct size to fit the hole.
The panel is tapped and the rheostat
placed in position. Connections are
made to the p~lunger by a strip of cop
per or brass. A knob and pointer. or
dial. complete the rheostat. BY turn
ing the knob. the plunger moves back
and forth and varies the pressure on
the carbon grains. The pitch of thread
will determine the rate at which the
~plunger operates. With a fine thread.
a complete turn will not greatly affect
the current flow; a heavy thread will
allow a rather rough adjustment to be
made. although it will be finer adjust
ment than the ordinary wire rheostat.

Miss Provost made statements in her
testimony which conflict with former
testimonies and statements taken from
her under oath. Adolph Juel. finger
print expert OF the San Francisco po-
lice department and Milton Carlson,
Los Angeles finger print expert were
called by the defense in an attempt to
refute evidence offered by E. Q. Helm
rich q similar expert of Berkeley,
Cal.
Heinrich testified that finger PRINTS
found on 4 door OF Arbuckie's room In
the Hotel st. Francis were those OF
Arbuck1e and Miss Virginia Rappe
whose death was made the basis OF the
charge against Arbuckle.
Carlson testified that finger prints
can be forged beyond the possibility Oh
detection by layman.
He tried out such forgeries success
fully on poker chips, knives and arti-
cles during a convention OF police ex-
perts In San Diego, he said. The point
has Sbeen raised by the defense that
the prints on the st. Francis door
could have been forged.
The witness said that the prints on
the door did not compare with those
OF Arbuckle and Miss Rappe. Carl
son was the last witness today.
Juel Testified that he could find no
points OF positive comparison between
the police finger prints of Arbuckle
and Miss Rappe and those on door"
The prosecution contends that tho
fingerprints were made by Arbuckle
and Miss Rappe while she was trying
to escape from the room on tho occa-
sion OF party during which he Is al

The witness denied he had agreed at
any time with Heinrich on any points
of comparison between the police and

The police prints of Miss Rappo were
taken after death. Under cross-ex-
animation Juel said: Il will not say
that the prints arc not those OF Ar
buckle and Miss Rappe." He said
also that the prints appeared to be
those of a man ard a woman.
