XXV—NO. 113 BREA POLICE CHIEF STILL IN JAIL Preliminary of J. E. Stone Continued to Dec. 20 When J. M. Chavez Isn't Located The preliminary hearing of City Marshal J. E. Stone, of Brea, called before Justice Cox of Santa Ana, yesterday afternoon on a charge of accepting a bribe of $100 not to prosecute J. M. Chavez, of Placentia, for bootlegging, was continued to 10 a.m., Dec. 20, when Chavez could not be located. The trial was originally set for Dec. 27 and then advanced to yesterday on Stone's request for an earlier hearing. The sheriff's office complained it had not notified in time of the change in date to locate Chavez, who is the complainant witness. Ames & McFadden, representing Stone, objected to delaying the trial unless ball or $2000 was reduced to permit the Brea officer obtain his release from jail. To this proposition, Dist. Atty. Nelson voiced strenuous opposition. The defense counsel demanded proof that reasonable efforts were made to bring Chavez into court and the district attorney was required to make affidavit of what had been done to locate him. The defense was assured that if Chavez is still in the state he would be in court the 20th. Portugal Swept By Bolshevism LONDON, Dec. 15—Bolshevist tendencies are sweeping through Portugal, according to reports reaching the foreign office today. The country is without a government, the cabinet having been forced to resign Wednesday. The overthrow of the ministry was brot about by the Portuguese revolutionary committee which seated the cabinet at Lisbon after the recent revolution. It was headed by Major Pinto. Clashes between the hostile factions are occurring continuously. It is possible that the suggestion of foreign intervention will be seriously considered by London, Paris, Madrid and Rome if affairs get worse. 600 ELKS ATTEND CLUBHOUSE OPENER More than 600 Elks, about all the members who could get there, assembled last night for the first meeting of the lodge in the new club house.

In a test made last night by the Western Electric Co. of New York City, radio signals transmitted from the experimental station of that company, in New York City, call letters "2XB," on a wave length of 450 meters, unusually short for long distance transmission. These signals were what are known as continuous wave signals, produced by apparatus of recent development, and were of very low power. Usually a wave length of 5,000 to 25,000 meters is necessary. The power used was not over one kilowatt. At 10:25 p.m., at the station of Dr. J. E. Waters, located at West Orange, these signals were heard distinctly, and part of the message copied. Interference by the high power radio station at San Diego made it impossible to get the entire text. This was done with the receiving antenna lying in a tree, due to the 100-foot must usually supporting it having come down in the recent wind-storm. A report of the reception of these signals is being forwarded to the Western Electric Co. as requested in the broadcasted message sent out by them. At least one other amateur station in So. California is reporting the reception of the test signals, that of Lawrence Mott, of Avalon, who is supplied with the most modern and efficient equipment by the Western Electric Co., especially for this test. He reports the signals very strong. GERMAN TOY BACK ON U. S. MARKET BRIDGEPORT, Conn., Del. 15.

REYNOLDS ON TRIAL FOR PASSING CHECK Alfred Frank Reynolds went to trial today before Superior Judge West on the specific charge of passing a burgus check for $20 on Hill & Carden, Santa Ana merchants.

BOTTOM OF CRIME LOS ANGELES, Dec. 15 — Belief that Mrs. Catherine Swain, pretty Pomona business woman who was drugged, bound and burned alive in her home last Tuesday night by a mysterious assailant, was the victim of a Kentucky fued that has been smouldering for a number of years, led police officials on a new manhunt today when they were informed that te murdered woman ad confided in neighbors her fears of a certain woman. At the same time a telegram was received from Mrs. Swain's husband, J. T. Swain, who had been in Norfolk, Va., for several weeks on a business trip in which he stated that he would start home immediately and requested the full details of his wife's death by wire.
