11OllyMOOu, GEO. II - fNOsE0 The intimate details of Charlie Chaplins love life with Joan Barry promised today to provide Holly wood with most lurid criminal trial in its history.
 Chaplain's troubles began when ne refused to make red-haired Miss Barry wife number four. She told her story to the federal grand jury, with emphasis on the baby she claims is his, the two abortions she underwent, and her experiences with alleged peeping toms in blue coats, whom she charged with url- dressing her while she languished as & vagrant in Beverly Hills model jail.
 Having spent two weeks listening to numerous accounts of Miss Bar ry's travails, the jurors threw the book at the British pantomimiSt who ran 8 pair of baggy pants, a malacca cane and a sad smile into multi-million dollar movie for tune.
 The jurors named him as a vio- lator of the Mann act, because they say he transported Miss Barry across state lines for immoral pur- poses. They charged him with try ing to use undue influence upon a judge who sentenced her to jail for vagrancy, and they accused him the judge, himself, and several others with conspiring to deprive her of her civil rights
 The Mann act counts said that Chaplin twice violated the law; that first, on October 5, 1922, 'he feloniously transported and caused to be transported Joan Barry from Los Angeles to the city of New York" for immoral purposes, and that sec- ond, he brought her back three weeks later.
 Should the white-haired, 54-year- old Chaplin be found guilty on all counts, he could be subjected to $15,000 fine, IS years in Federal prison, one year in county jail, and probably deportation to England as an undesirable alien.
 we must remember that the Con- stitution of the United States pre- sumeS MT. Chaplin to be innocent" said his attorney, Jerry Giesler, who defended Errol Flynn in spectacu- lar statutory rape trial last year. Giesler promised to have his new est client in court Monday with the $1, ,000 to make bail.
 Other Defendants
 The other defendants, most of whom were represented by Attorney s. s. Hahn, were expected to make bond this afternoon. They included:
 Police Judge Charles Griffin, who sentenced Miss Barry to jail twice as vagrant, and later changed his mind.
 Police Captain w. W. White, whom Miss Barry charged with giv- ing her the bum's rush by placing her on a train to New York, with berth as far as Chicago and a chair car seat the rest of the way.
 Robert Arden, refugee from Aus tria, radio commentator on interna- tional affairs for a credit dentist, and pal of Chaplin, who was accused of delivering the railroad ticket and $100 expense money to Captain White.
 Tim Durant, usually identified as "a sport1maI,' another Chaplin crony, who was charged with Q part in the alleged conspiracy.
 Jessie Billie Reno, the police matron, who insisted that no police stopped to being peeping Toms and who said that, anyway, Miss Barry never was forced to sit in jail in the nude.
 Police Lieutenant Claude Marble, who booked Miss Barry on the orig inal vagrancy charge, after she tried to break into Chaplin's hilltop man. sion failed, sought to commit sui- eide. and failed again.
 All of them with exception of Chaplin, had testified before the
