San Francisco, Dec. 2. The man
slaughter case of Roscoe C. (Fatty)
Arbuckle went to the jury at 4:15
p. in.
Arbuckle is accused of ' having fa
tally injured Miss Vergimia Rappe, a
motion picture actress, during a par
ty in his rooms in the Hotel St. Fran
cis, September 5.
The case has occupied the court
for approximately three weeks. To
day's entire session was taken up
with final arguments, instructions to
the jury an-d Jury deliberation.
Gavin McNab, chief defense coun
sel, opened the session today with a
continuation of his closing argument
He was followed by Milton U'Ren,
assistant district attorney, whose
summing' up lasted nearly an hour.
The court room was crowded tb.ru-
j out the day and the adjoining cor
ridors also tern an anxious, crusning
crowd that taxed the ability and good
nature of the augmented police guard.
Arbuckle appeared to show deep in-(
terest in the arguments, especially
that of McNab, who characterized
t him as "a great artist who has sweet
ened the lives of millions of little
children."
Says Coerced Witnesses
M"Nab attacked what he termed
the "imprisonment" of two prosecu
tion witnesses. Miss Zeh Prevost and
Miss Alice Blake, show girls, by the
district attorney "in order to coerce
them into giving testimony beneficial
to the prosecution's cause." He said
that the "forces of law and order
should not assume the leadership of
a mob or take its commands from
' the mob." adding that "Arbuckle told
I at the time of his arrest the simple
' story he told on the stand, God
' knows what would have happened to
him."
U'Ren referred to Arbuckle as a
! Belshazzar sitting on his throne and
pouring his wine" during the party
in the Hotel St. Francis; "Thank
God, he has been told,- as Belshazzar
was told. that hi3 kingdom is divided
and his reign, is over U'Ren, said.
Asked at the cessation of final ar
guments what his future plans were,
Arbuckle said ha would make no
statement "until the thing Is out of OPUBfiinCD nCTTIMP
the way." He remarked that the fin-; HIVlAUtn Ut I 11110
ui anguweni 01 ijravin Jicau, or wie
old man," as he characterized him,
had not been answered adequately
by U'Ren. The prosecution reiterated
its hope for a speedy conviction.
"Watched Like Hawks"
Alternate Juror Hopkins said that
the jury had been watched closer
than any other in San Francisco for
twenty-five years. "They censored our
mail, both incoming and outgoing,"
he said. "We each had a separate
room at the hotel where we stayed,
and were watched like hawks by the
fourdeputy sheriffs who guarded us
They certainly did their duty well
"The newspapers were carefully
kept from us. I have no idea of what
has happened in the -world for tw
opinion the prosecution had failed
prove its case and that the Jury
would be four or five hours in reach
ing a verdict,
