Action of Mayor Itolpli Barring Discussion of Case Causes Women to Retaliate. SAN FRANCISCO. Dec. 10. (Spe cial.) The Housewives' league never w ill meet In the San Francisco city hall again. So. at least. Bays Mrs. Robert Arm strong Dean, delegate cf thq league to the woman's vigilant committee, in a statement commenting on the action Friday of Mayor Rolph in asking the clubwoman to refrain from discussing the Arbuckle case before the housewives in the city hall assembly rooms. The meeting, scheduled for 2 (.'clock Friday afternoon, was ad journed with the understanding that another meeting place will be sought for discussions of affairs of public concern. In her lengthy statement. Mrs. Dean touched on the vigilant com mittee connection with the Arbuckle rase by announcing that the women never have taken a stand on the guilt or innocence of the screen comedian. Their action In commending Mrs. Helen M. Hubbard, one of the two members of the Jury who brought about a disagreement by holding out for conviction, related to the wom an's determination to stick by her conviction. Mrs. Dean said. Mayor Rolph's action to prevent the Arbuckle case being discussed in a municipal building followed pro tests based on the belief that the con templated address was -intended as propaganda against Arbuckle. Oavln McXab, chief consul for Ar buckle, declared, when asked to com ment on the proposed address, that It was "unheard of In the history of San Francisco for propaganda to be directed against a defendant pre sumed to be innocent while await ing trial." While the storm center of the Ar buckle case was shifting about the Qlty hall, things were moving along In the perjury charge of District At torney Brady against Mrs. Minnie Neighbors of Los Angeles, a defense witness In the manslaughter trial. A continuance until next Thursday was won by the defense attorneys, in order that they may carry out a change of defense plans and bring In witnesses from Los Angeles to sup port Mrs. Neighbor's testimony that she saw Virginia Rappe at Wheeler hot springs last August. It developed today that the prose cution will call other witnesses in rebuttal after the defense has sub mitted Its case. Opposition to the continuance was made by the state through Assistant District Attorney U'Ren. Washington Oil company, and his wife were placed under arrest by a United States deputy marshal here last night charged with using the mails in connection with a scheme to defraud. They were released on $1500 cash bail. The arrests were made as a result of an Investigation by United States District Attorney Jeffrey into the sale of oil stocks In Spokane. Other arrests may follow, it is said. Samples of oil alleged' to have been obtained on the property of the Eastern Washington Oil company were sent to the fed-eral bureau of ni'ines at Washington. D. C for analysis. According to press dis patches received from Washington this week the oil was declared to be a "mixture" of animal or vegetable fats and kerosene. The information alleges that the oil seepages first found under the L'Ecuyer residence, 1029 Southwest boulevard. Spokane, were not natural.

One of the questions to be discussed is the raising of money to meet the deficit in the expenses of the 1920 campaign. "There will not be the least diffi culty in raising this money," said Mr. Williams, "because the Harding ad ministration, of which much.was ex pected, has exceeded fondest expec tations.
