Never So Many Obtaining Licenses Before Opening of Seasan, Report Dealers
The hot weather of the last few days has been sufficient cause for a record number of Anaheim and northern Orange-co anglers to hit for the mountains for the opening of the trout season tomorrow.
Never before has there been such a large number of fishing licenses issued before the season opened, nor so many outfitting themselves with tackle, declared local sporting goods dealers today. Following are a few of those who will seek to entice the sporty trout:
Edw. A. Buck of Santa Ana and Bert Kern of Anaheim, will leave tonight for Bear Creek.
E. L. Lyons, Jos H. Flynn, Clarence Goodson, F. E. Epplerly, W. W. Whitey, and Roy Andrade to Big Bear.
Mr. and Mrs. G. R. Lobey to Kelso Ice.
"We have always been an Jacinto, own report S. parlegee to Ventura service, H. Reynolds and E. G. with dealey to Big Bear that we Hugo to Bear for the encourage."
"It is poised service station to Big Moore and that will be too Corona of this Coffman Clifford E.
McCullough to Big Bear.
W. E. Patterson, Walter H. Hunt, W. P. Johnson, M. McGottodd, M. W. Hatfield, R. W. Sumner, of Yorba Linda, W. H. Chappell, Swinger to Little or Big Bear.
There are many more who will hike to Little or Big Bear Lakes, Bear creek, Hemet dam, Marino dam, Stillwater and other So. Calif fishing places. Very few are going north as reports come that streams are low and fishing very poor, what few specimens of the funny tribe are runked out being very small.
Fishing licenses have been issued by L. Wisser, local sporting goods man, to Anaheim people for the opening of the trout season tomorrow as follows:
P. Syre, George Huber, J.B. Wenject, Lambert Stoffell, Dr. L.C. Deming, Edith A. Deming, Ed.N. Schneider, L.Wisser, D.R.MacDonald, Mrs.W.A. Choppell, David Taylor, Paul Frahn, ElmerA.Preston, F.H.Westlake, Ben Strong, W.C.Mauerhan, Anna C.Mauerhan, B.Norston, WilliamR.Houts,A.H.Heying, Geo,C.WentsJ.A.Trendle,M.W.Martenet,A.V.Vall,DrHouck,W.G.Fergus,C.Brownigan,Al Cook and Anna M.Cook.
Licenses to those from other places were issued as follows: E.T.Pinford, Fullerton, William Smocks,Fulldie.
Because of the unanimous opposition by local business men and other backers of the show to a scheme by which the Los Angeles Express and the Anaheim Herald assumed to name the queen, C.of C.directors, ch recommendation of the show committee, have decreed that there will be no queen-nor coronation ceremonies.
No one having any connection with the show gave the Los Angeles and Anaheim newspaper combination any authority by which they could assume to name the queen, least of all to commercialize the idea with a circulation contest," declared a C.of C.director today.
EIGHT NEW RIGS AT HUNTINGTON BEACH
(Huntington Beach Field)
The field record for new rigs is broken this week; as material has been delivered on the ground for eight derricks since last report, bringing the total up to 88 drilling, building and producing.
The two locations include two for the Sun Oil Co. of Calif—one on Block 1001,Vista Del Mar tract,a short distance south of No.1 on the Shoestring lease,and the other on Lot 1,Block 2001,north side of 17th-st west of the subway.
The Hurst Syndicate also have two new locations—on Lots 28 to 31,Block 712,and Lots 7,9 and 11,Block 713,east side of Palm,south of the Grammar school.
The Gypsy Oil Syndicate will drill on Lots 23 to 26,Block 911,east side of Main-st,between 12th and 13th-sts,having some lumber and two 70-ap boilers on the ground.The syndicate is reported as being promoted by some well known men who have been working in the field here for some time.
A derrick has been erected by "Tuck" Edens' Syndicate on the east half of Block 713,south of the Grammar school,and a well will be drilled there as soon as Well No.1 has been cemented.
The Union Oil Co.is assembling material for an offset well to the Western Union well on Tract 83.on the south designated as Copeland No.3.This material was ordered for No.2.to be drilled on the lot east of No.1 but was switched to the other location.
All field records for building derricks were utterly shattered by the Petroleum Midway Co.,Ltd.,when the derrick for Tower No.1.on the east side of Westminster-ave.west of the Holly sugar factory was completed in less than one day.
The company had until May 1 to sprinkle in a well on the Tower lease of acres,and owing to the poor snowing of the wells on the north side of the field,它 was about de-

Lathers Start Work Next Week to be Followed Very Shortly by Art Plasterers
The masonry was completed today on the big Roberts theatre and lathers will begin their work next week, to be followed closely by the art plasterers who will put up the cupids and all the other attractive decorative effects.
The walls around the stage, the highest of any building in Anaheim, are 63 feet from the top to the sidewalk and 72 feet to the brassage. The stage is standard size, 35x70. Every show that leaves New York has scenery, curtains and all other equipment built especially for this size stage.
In the basement will be the regulation dressing rooms and storage room for trunks. Some of the bigger shows have five or six big truck loads of such equipment.
The opening from the stage to the auditorium is 34 feet wide and 24 feet high.
Something entirely new in theatre construction is a concrete beam across the top of the stage opening. This is 37 feet long and eight feet high, weighing 37 tons. It is 32 feet from the ground. It is very unusual to have a concrete cross-piece of such size so high in the air. The walls of the curtain loft are tied together by concrete beams.
The last of the roofing paper is being put in and the waterproof roofing will be installed within a few days.
The ceiling is gracefully curved and arched, giving an idea of the attractiveness of the interior.
GERMANY RESUMES NEGOTIATIONS TODAY
LONDON, April 20. — Germany resumed direct negotiations with the allies today following failure to communicate thru the U.S. her latest reparations offer.
Lord d'Alberon, British ambassador to Germany, arrived from Berlin with the new German proposal, which exactly duplicated that which she tried to present thru American diplomatic channels.
The amounts were $12,500,000,000 in a lump sum or $50,000,000,000 over a period of years. This offer already had been characterized by the allied spokesmen as "unacceptable."
This latest move on the part of Germany was generally regarded as a final effort to avert occupation of the lithurain district as a penalty for non-payment of the reparations installment the allies claim as due Monday, but which Berlin contends already has been paid.
SEVENTH ATTEMPT AT SUICIDE FAILURE
LOS ANGELES, April 20—Following a quarrel with her husband, according to Detectives Barnes and Gross, pretty Florence Allendinger, 21, of 735 S. Olive-st, tried to end her life today by swallowing a vial of poison. This marks her seventh attempt at self-destruction, the police say.
At the receiving hospital Police Surgeon Buckingham saved the young woman's life with a stomach pump.
ANAHEIM MEN ORGANIZE OIL COMPANY
Among the new companies to enter Huntington Beach district is the Callowa Oil Co., composed largely of Anaheim business and oil men.
The company has acquired 12-1-2 acres right in the center of the holdings of the Standard, Union, Amalgamated and General Petroleum.
The property of the Callowa Oil Co. lies in proven territory and is within 2700 feet of the Standard's Bolsa Chica well No. 1 and within 1300 feet of the Union Oil Co.'s Copeland No. 1, and the Western Union Oil Co.'s largest producer ever brought in in the southern part of the state. These three wells which field Consolidated Oil Co., today received notices from the Los Angeles office that the Petroleum Midway had taken over their drilling operations and 66-acre lease holdings at Richfield, the contract being effective from April 27.
Altho the notice from the Richfield Consolidated offices does not so state, here was a well authenticated report today that the deal was made on the basis of $1,500,000.
The Petroleum Midway recently spent $150,000 for 14 acres in the vicinity.
Following are excerpts from the notice:
Under our contract, we are assured of the completion of the first four wells without any additional expense to us, thus enabling us to use the income from our portion of the production of these wells to pay dividends at an early date.
This arrangement also enables us to provide for an active drilling campaign and the immediate protection of our boundaries, which are now threatened by the extensive operations of our neighbors, there being at this time six wells drilling or in operation and with a number of others in contemplation.
After the completion of the first four wells, the expenses of the drilling of additional wells are to be advanced by the Petroleum Midway Ltd., and they will be repaid out of production from these wells, the surplus production is to be divided on a fifty-fifty basis with our company and the Petroleum Midway Company Ltd.
THE FLOW SUNDAY was at the rate of a little more than 1500 barrels and Monday it rose to 2400.
There have been many wells drilled in California that have produced several times as much oil as this well is making, but there have been few that produced so large a volume under similar circumstances, as there is nothing in the hole but the 10 inch string of casing set for the water test.
The cement was drilled out Tuesday afternoon of last week, and Driller Roberts, who was in charge of operations at the rig at that time, estimates that the drill did not drop into the sands more than ten feet. The gas pressure was so evident that it was decided to cap the well and wait orders.
Thursday morning the valve was opened up and the well immediately started to clear its throat of mud and water, and it was not long before oil of a good color began showing up in the content.
Tuesday the flow was checked down to about 1500 barrels, which flows through a half-inch opening, and this will be all that it will be allowed to flow.
There is no doubt this well would flow 10,000 to 12,000 barrels, if opened up, but it would probably sand up or get beyond control, like the Bolsa did.
The oil tests .23 gravity and the pipe line price it $81. The voles
FOUR INJURED WHEN FORD AUTO UPSETS
A Ford occupied by Mr. and Mrs. H. Heckert and daughter and house guest who was being taken to he P. E. station to start back to her home at New York, overturned on the Yorba Linda-bldd at 1 p.m. today when a Studebaker touring car occupied by Mr. and Mrs. H. Smith passed them.
All the occupants of the Ford were more or less injured and stranded to the Fullerton hospital.
Miss Scotts Wood, the house guest, who had been employed during her stay as a stenographer, was badly shaken up, and A. Asgyani of Yorba Linda, also in the car, suffered a hurt shoulder. None of the rest were seriously injured. Miss Wood and Mr. Asgyani were given attention at the Johnston-Wickett hospital.

MOTOR TURNS OVER WEST OF ANAHEIM
A coursing car overturned on the County-rd about six miles west of Anaheim late this afternoon, when the driver, who was apparently new at the wheel, skidded the machine onto the soft dirt. It was reported that a woman was pinned under the car, but when the Backs and Terry ambulance arrived, after summons by phone, the occupants of the car had left, and it was not ascertained who they were, or where they had gone. Residents stated there was no license on the car.
Tuesday the flow was checked down to about 1500 barrels, which flows through a half-inch opening, and this will be all that it will be allowed to flow.
There is no doubt this well would flow 10,000 to 12,000 barrels, if opened up, but it would probably sand up or get beyond control, like the Bolsa did.
The oil tests .23 gravity and the pipe line price it $1.81. The value of the oil Monday was $4,344, one-sixth of which goes to the land owners.
The drilling of this well explodes the hector that signs or indications in the troughs or boxes are requisite for a big well, as there were less indications of oil when this well was being drilled than any other in the field, and the general opinion was that the venture would result in failure.
Supt. Staire states that the only indications found were just before the casing was set, when a test showed that there were oil sands close.
This well is the first one in this field to drill itself in. The famous Bolsa well was drilled more than 500 feet into the sands before it came in; consequently this is a bigger well than the one that made the Cold famous.
So little had been expected of this well that no preparations were made for caring of the oil, and all the available tanks in this section of the country were rushed in Sunday to store the oil, and the premises resembled a tank farm.
Arrangements were made Monday with the Standard Oil Co. to take the oil thru their pipe line, and the Standard efficiency was again shown when the service was cut in that night.
There are 45 acres in this lease—nine 5-acre tracts, extending north almost to the Dr. Huff ranch on the northern edge of the maze.
The bringing in of this big well established the fact that the high pressure area of the field is north of the original lease taken by the Standard Oil Co., where practically all of the production was prior to the advent of thisusher.
The tract where well is belongs to Thos. E.

CHICAGO, April 20. — The federal government hit at the building trust in Chicago today when indictments were returned against 110 corporations and individuals by a federal grand jury, charging monopoly and restraint of trade under the Sherman act.
Today's formal charges followed sweeping investigation of alleged gigantic combines in practically all the building trades to extort enormous profits by strangling competition, and fixing prices jointly.

LOS NUELES, April 30.—Locking himself in the bathroom of his palatial residence at 1436 S. Hobart-bldd shortly after 9 o'clock today, J Brown Sears, 37, wealthy cotton broker and prominent in business circles, placed a 44 caliber revolver to his temple land sent a bullet crashing thru his brain.
Mrs. Sears, who was in another room busy with her morning household work, heard the report of the pistol. Breaking down the door of the room she found her husband on the floor bleeding profusely.
According to the investigating officers, Sears has been despondent on account of business reverses. Mrs. Sears told the police she talked with hire husband for several hours last night and he declared he was despondent but did not intimate that he would attempt self-destruction.

SENATE PASSES I. A. FLOOD CONTROL BILL
SACRAMENTO, April 30. — The Graves indeterminate franchise bill was conceded to be "dead" today, following the action of its proponents in passing the measure on file late last night.
The senate last night killed the two Jones bills aimed at the workmen's compensation fund.
The senate also receded from its actions.
Today's formal charges followed sweeping investigation of alleged giantic combines in practically all the building trades to extort enormous profits by strangling competition, and fixing prices jointly.
It was declared here that a similar situation exists in practically every big city in America. The U.S. government has instructed the department of justice, reports show, to conduct vigorous investigations in every city and to conduct prosecutions wherever combines are discovered to be pyramiding prices thru organizations in conspiracles against trade.
The investigation which resulted in the indictments uncovered the most stupendous conspiracy against the public ever disclosed in Chicago. Profits ranging as high as 1000 pct. were shown to have been wrenched from home builders and a situation so intense that witnesses testifying against the heads of the combine had to be given bodyguards to protect them from bodily harm was revealed.
Criminal prosecutions, which probably will result in penitentiary sentences to the offending building materials men, will follow the indictments.
