,'TWO MEMBERS OF FIRM
' WILL SURRENDER TODAY
Federal warrants were iwuird today
'ferF. Knplln, .T. Kuptkln and Geerge

cohol Company, Delaware nvcniie and
Toplar street, en n charge of con
spiracy te defraud the (iuvurnincnt.
Accerdfng te Associate I'rtihibitien
Director Itutter, (here is n "presump
tion" tlint these three men knew some
thing about the diversion of lii.'.OUO
mdlens of grnin nleohel.
llcnjnmin !'. (Jelder, eeunsel for the
men, appeared nt the Federal Itul'd-
iW anil announced that he would mir
rrndcr two of his clients, immediately.
Kaplln, he bald. Is visiting out of town,
Wit will be surrendered en his. return.
"These are only the first of nunicreir
arrests," said Mr. Itutter. "The
Grain Alcohol Company held n I Per
mit, ' which nllevve-i it te draw any
quantity of nleohel it needed for.non fer.non for.nen
'btvorage purposes. The men, for whom
i warrants hnvc been issued were the
local representatives .of the Greenthilc
Ditllling Company, of Lnwrenecbcrg,
Ind.
'Trem May te October of this year,
the Grein Alcohol Company withdrew
plxtccn carloads of nleohel for non nen
bevernge purposes, nil en legitimate per
mits. During this time tin (train Al
cohol Company has ncceunted for only
100 barrel". It seems a fair presump
tion tlint the remaining I'J.I.OOO proof
gallons were diverted for the manufac
ture of bootleg liquor.
"These warrants will be followed
promptly by ethers. This is but. a pnrt
of a huge conspiracy that existed in
l'hllaiU'lpbin. In the near future we
(incct te arrest ether distillery ogente.
The distillery agents, altogether, have,
aceerdiir; te my estimate Heeded the
city with mere than 1,800.000 gallons
of whisky since spring, it hns been
withdrawn en legitimate permits, but
put te an illegitimate ue.
City Flooded With Kiini
"nnmigli liquor lias been withdrawn
or manufactured from grain alcohol te
inpply every man, woman and child in
me city wnu mure mini iwe ami u aim
gallons."
Mr. itutter indicated tiiat it may ap
pear dc-lmble later te press another
ibarge against the defendants, that of
cons piracy te defraud bv using the
wrong revenue stnnip.s. On grain nl nl nl
fohel withdrawn for non -beverage pur
poses, the tax is ?2.40 a gallon : it Is
ifi.SOn gallon when withdrawn for bev
CMKO use. Under the law. if nleohel is.
ultlnlravvn for non-beveitiKc and put te
btrcrngc use, n tax of .S. 10 a gallon
may be Imposed.
If It can he proved that the mining
121,000 gallons of nleohel went into the
making of bootleg rum, then the Grain
Alcohol Cempnu, might be forced te pay
an extra tax of about ISl.Ol'.It.OOO.
According te the Prohibition Enforce
ment office no record hns been kept of
receipts and disposal of grain alcohol
by the company which Is under file.
Special Agents Ilenrle and Abel, of

Shadow of Virginia Rappe's
Hand-en Hetel Doer Gives
Thrill te Trial
DR. HEINRICH INEXORABLE
Fingerprints, Backed Up by Ex
pert's Testimony, Still Grave
Menace te Fatty
By BART HALtfY
of the rtenlnjr 1'iibllc Iileer Mlterlal Staff
Cepurlaht. lOtt, bu Public Ledger Cemvanv
San Francisce, Nev. 2S. Fatty Ar
.buckle is net, se te speak, jfrazy te go
en the witness stand In the court
where he is. en trial for manslaughter,
and his lawyers will net die of grief
If he can manage te continue his im
memorial silence.
Hut inexorable circumstances, among
which is the stubborn will of the pros
ecuting ntterney, Matthew I5rndj nre
conspiring te make Fatty's nppearnncc
In the chair inevitable. Thus it seemed
this morning that the trial would pro
ceed te n tranquil close after n noisy
battle between finger-print experts.
whe'P testimony has suddenly assumed
an aspect of supreme Importance.
Ilredy shocked the defense by asking
for subpoenas for Louise Glailm, one
of the better-known motion-picture
actresses of I.es Angeles, and half a
dozen ethers, among whom nre Nerman
Tnurey. of the Vitugraph studies, and
.lane Uumend, Geerge Median nud
.Tack White.
The application for writs was made
te Judge Thomasi F. Grnhaii). of San
Francisce. Mr. Itrmly would net dis
close his purpose In calling new wit
nesses. Put, oddly enough, Fnlty's
lawjers answered for him.
Defense Makes Answer
"They may be able te show." said
one of Arbuekle's counsel, "that our
client did piny host nt some rather
showy parties en ether occasions, but
they will net be able te prove or even
te suggest thnt be ever wns guilty of
behavior or of any attack such ns they
are trying te prove against him ne,w."
A little Inter it was announced that
Mr. Arbucklc "probably " would take
the sland in his own defense. The
assumption Is that the District Attorney
is about te rip the lid off what is
wrongly called llellj woed's1 Latin
quarter. Latins knew ivhcn te .step
and even Greenwich Village only talks
Its quaint philosophy. It doesn't live It.
This, then, was one of Fatty's
clouded days. It would have been
clouded even if Jlrady, acting ns he has
acted since Hip trial begun in n sort
of quiet fury,- hadn't followed the ex
ample of the defense and prepared for
an excursion of his own into the un
happy past. ,
One bit of the prosecution's evidence
Is still a matter of grave concern te
Fatty and bis lawyers. That is (lie
testimony of Prof. Ileinrieli, micro micre micro
sceplst, cliemiit and fingerprint ex
pert of the University of California.
If motion-picture people nre actually
made te testify, they will be able te de
no mere than create an atmosphere un
favorable te the embattled comedian.
Put it is Ileinrieli, with his microscopes
and enmeriis and his take-it-er-lcnvc-it
manner, who Mill seems te bold in his
hand the power te connect Fatty di
rectly with the death of Virginia Itappe.
The Shadow of a Hand
Virtually all of the routine evidence
is in. It has tended merely te show
that Virginia used te drink, that drink
ing made her sick and that paroxysms
such as seized her in the course of the
Arbucklc Laber Day party at the St.
Francis were net new phenomena te
her acquaintances.
Virginia's character, hor'assecliitions
and her physical condition were net
what they should have been, iUjeu
believe the witnesses for the defense.
Hut all this has no direct bearing en
the events tlint sent the girl raving and
dying out of Arbuekle's biilte, Ilein
rieli of the nileroseepo is mere explicit
and mere direct.
I?nning incongruously ngnltist the
courtroom wall, directly behind Judge
Leiidcrbnck's great ehnlr, are two heavy
doers of polished mahogany. They were
taken from their hinges from the ln ln
teiler of the suite in which Fatty's
Laber Day party was held. One is

spread and there is a suggestion of pres

intervenes between Fatty and the world
of high jinks and big money and ap
plause te which he is trying te light
back. Fatty can sec it wherever he lifts
his eyes from the table, and Urndy and
Ileinrieli say that It is the lai visible
trace left by Virginia in the world of
the living.
Prinls Made Permanent
Aieund it arc spots which arc said by
the prosecution and Its microscepist te
be the fingerprints of Arbucklc. Or
dinarily, of ceurc, these impressions
would net be visible, bvt Hcinrieh, the
patient, labored ever (Win in wnys of
Ins own, much as photographers some
times labor ever defective negatives te
make masses and outlines clear, and
when he bad linally brought the hand
prints "up" be tixed them with some
sort of metallic compound.
The impression makes it seem i.cr
tain that at some time or ether a
woman's hand was laid henvilv en the
deer and that a man's heavier band
rested ever it. Kate IJretinan. the
chnmbcrmaid from the St. Francis,
swore that she had brushed this same
deer with n dust mop, and Ileinrieli
calmly admitted that ordinary linger,
murks might thereby be obliterated
wholly or in pnrt.
He is net argumentative', this Hein-
i'Ii. He merely presents what be lins
and waits for the next question. And

A dramatic confeslen of the slaving

"Well, f did it. but I did II in self

"I didn't sheet him," Hastings
shouted.
"Ne!" icmurkcd Souder, the tone of

Then the detective captain looked
Herman in the eyes.
"Did you shout the park guard?" he

"Ne, nir; he did." replied Herman,
pointing t'e Hastings.
"Did you kill the park guard?" Cap
