Another Mistrial in
atty Arbuckle Case
Jury for Second Time Is Unable to
Agree on Actors Fate.

SAN FRANCISCO, Cal-The jury
in the second trial OF manslaughter
charge against Roscoe c. Arbuckle
decided. at the conclusion OF 44-hour
session that it could not agree and
was discharged today, with the final
ballot standing ten for conviction and
two for acquittal.
The case was placed on the calen-
dar to be set for its third trial. Both
and defense announced
that they would favor such trial. So
sure was the defense OF its position
in the second trial that it submitted
its case without final argument This
had an effect opposite from the one
according to Nate Friedman,
one of the jurors, in a formal state
ment.
I'VE thought that when the defense
declined to argue it had thrown up its
hands" he said. The first ten ballots
stood nine to three for conviction, and
thereafter until the fourteenth and f.
nal ballot it was ten to two"

Arab Colony Starved

FARRELL, PA tribe OF fifty
Arabs, starving because their religion
would not allow them to beg or steal
from persons who were not Moham-
medans, has been found in hotel in
Farrell, Pa. The men were suffering
from illness and starvation until there
was nothing left of them but skin and
bones. They had been employed in

months ago.
Three of the Arabs were suffering
from tuberculosis when they were
found. All were without fire. The au-
thorities Immediately took charge and
will care for the men until arrange
ments can be made to return them to
their own people.
The tribe went to Farrell more than
a year ago and worked in a steel mill.
They were unable to find other work
when the mills closed nine months
ago. Their money finally became ex-
hausted and they were unable to buy
food. mo true follower OF Moham-

of the tribe, when asked why he had

FAMILY TRUST Comply
UNIQUE ORGANIZATION
MITSUI CLAN IN JAPAN CON-
troll UNTOLD RICHES. IL
RELATED FAMILIES.

The recent death OF Baron H. Nit
sui in Japan has directed attention to
the most unique family organization
known. Certainly of western civiliza-
ton there has been nothing like it. The
reported organization OF the Roths-
child family to operate as single f.
nancial unit is commonplace in COM
parison with the elaborate family f.
nancial combination Of which the
Baron Mitsu was one OF the chiefs.
Huge Family Trust Company.
This family trust, known as Mitsui
and Company, is by far the richest
firm in the oriental world. 1t controls
mines, banks, railroads, steamship
lines, factories and commercial houses
to such an extent that it is said that
there is not one large commercial or
ganization in Japan with which the
firm of Mitsui is not identified. The
expression as rich as a Mitsui is the
Japanese way Of expressing unlimited
riches.
But Mitsui and Company is no ordi-
nary business combination such as is
known to the American business
world. The members OF the firm are
the members of II families, all de-
scended from the same common ances-
tor, and all bearing the surname Nit
sui. And each and every member. OF
each and every family is by virtue OF
the blood which runs through his
veins a member OF the famous firm.
Family Controls All Lives.
By family law no member OF the
firm of Mitsui and Company can be
richer than any other member. All
property is owned in common. No
person belonging to the Mitsui family
combine has any individual rights. The
family comes first in all cases. He
cannot sell or buy, marry or change
his profession without the consent of
the family council board This council
board is all powerful, and every Nit
sui swears to obey its decree.
So strong is the control OF the Coun-
Gil that the members of the Mitsui
family disregard the Japanese laws
the rights OF inheritance.
In Japan the estate of the father falls
to the eldest son. The younger sons
must shift for themselves. But among
the Mitsui when one member OF the
family dies the fortune of his sons is
in no way effected. The property still
remains common to all members OF
the family combination. 1t is really
carried to the extreme in
the capitalstic world, and made pos
sible only through the closeness OF
the family ties growing out of the
Japanese love for ancestor worship.

FROM STABLE TO THE
UNITED STATES SENATE
SENATOR CURTIS WAS MA
TONS WARD AS INDIAN LAD
ON RESERVATION.

From boy on an Indian reserva-
tion in Kansas to whip" in the Unit
ed States senate at Washington has
CONSTITUTED the spectacular rise of
Charles Curtis, OF Kansas, the man OF
public life who has the strangest, most
romantic, picturesque and altogether
marvellous career back of him.
In the absence OF Senator Lodge,
who is taking leading part in the in
Iternational disarmament conference in
Washington, Senator Curtis has also
taken over the duties OF leader"
Serves on Senate Skirmish Line.
Even wheIf the leader is present
1.-THE whip is the individual who is out
on the skirnish line in actual charge
OF the fighting" Senator Curtis said.
The whip must, of course, know the
location OF every man OF his COM
mand Every morning he must get in
touch with every senator on his list
He must know how many OF them
are out Of town, if they are paired and
with whom, where they are and how
quickly they can get back II needed. >"
As boy this senate whip" lived
as a ration Indian on a government

! Jockey and rode horses on the race
tracks at the fairs Of half dozen
! formative states. In early youth, when
he acquired his hard-earned education,
! he was might hawk" hack driver
on the streets OF Topeka, Kan.
Is Descendant of Old Chief.
Senator Curtis is the Indian of real
ity rather than of romance, being
heavy and thick and blocky. He is
rather dark, with coal-black hair mus
| tache and eyes. A stranger would most
likely guess him to be OF far eastern
origin rather than American Although
he was born on the plains OF Kansas
in 1860, "the Indian has no gray hairs
in his black thatch, and his full lace
bears none OF the wrinkles OF age.
The senator's Indian grandmother
was named Julie Poppin, the daugh-
ter OF the old chief White Plume, who
had wed with a French voyageur, one
of those forerunners in the Mississip-
ri Valley OF a civilization which was
in a century to perform such re-
markable transformation. And the
daughter OF Julie Poppin married a
frontiersman OF English extraction by
the name of Curtis, and to this couple
was born young Charles, destined to
reach a high place.
Followed Races Five Years.
Driven from the reservation, 90
miles west OF Topeka, by an attack Of
the Kaws on the Cheyenne Indians
young Charlie carried the message OF
the outbreak to Topeka. He fingered
about that struggling settlement on a
western frontier until he won fame as
race horse jockey and became the
rider for one OF the then famous sta
bles OF the west.
For FIVE years the little Indian fol
lowed the races. Then he returned to
the reservation for brief time, only
to return to Topeka and hire out with
a livery stable man as hack driver.
Studying by the light OF his hack
lamps Charles Curtis fitted himself for
the profession of law and was admitted
TO the bar when Fl years old. Three
years later he was county attorney,
and when 80 years old found himself
in the congress OF the United States,
in which he served almost constantly
for the last 80 years.
