SCRAMBLE FOR "DEATH RAYS" LONDON, May 29.—An international scramble has set in for "death rays" which are so destructive, scientists claim, that their possession will make war virtually impossible in the future. It was reported here today that the United States has joined England and France in seeking the formula for the deadly beams which are supposed to be able to put airplane motors out of commission, kill armies and set fires at many miles distant. The national academy of science at Washington is under stood to have cabled to Professor J Walt of Sheffield University for the particulars of his "death ray" invaation. Great Britain's efforts to obtain the formula for the destructive beam invented by Professor Grindell Matthews has been unsuccessful so far, but scientists employing by the government are experimenting along the same lines. Professor Matthews today is in Lyons, France, where he is said to be negotiating with a private firm which has close relations with the French government. Italian scientists are engaged with tests with rays and radio in an effort to devise a piece of war machinery which will offset the "death beam." Officials of the British air ministry intimated that they were not satisfied with the experiments made for their benefit by Professor Matthews Monday. They admitted that the ray had lightened an electric light bulb and had stopped the engine of a small motorcycle, but said that the distance, instead of being eight miles was only 30 feet. However, Prof. Matthews proved that he had the correct principle for a destructive beam. Officials declared that the demonstrations must be more conclusive before the government advances financial assistance. The "death ray" is an electric current controlled in a manner similar to the steering of ships by wireless. Its sponsors claim it will make war so deadly that nations will fear to engage in hostilities in the future because of the menace of general annihilation.

Intermittent explosions tinue. Schools have been closed damage is estimated at more $5,000,000. While no loss of life was ported, many persons were injured. Members of the Romanian family and the former king queen of Greece fled from Ceilan Palace when one explosion only two miles distant rocked building and sent the plaster from the ceiling. Parliament was forced to pend its session. Immediately following the CASSEDY QUIZZED Edwin B. Cassedy, auditor of the state corporation department, is scheduled to appear at the new trial of former Trustee O. C. Hardebeck and Glenn B. Churchill of the Keen Hat Stores, which opened today in superior court at Santa Ana. Cassedy will be asked to explain why trustees were permitted to sell $100,000 worth of stock or units, although they put only $100 into the business themselves. The character of the permit, however, will not affect the question of whether as alleged the trustees told their dupes that they had put $10,000 into the business, as would normally be required. J. Morgan Marmaduke, Los Angeles attorney, who represented the trustees at the first trial, is himself a defendant in a suit for $5000 brought by one Leonard G. Sanders and Mrs. C. Mickle of Los Angeles. Sanders alleged that Marmaduke took a note from him, after persuading him that, because of his friendship with a prominent deputy district attorney of Los Angeles-co, he could successfully defend Sanders in a damage suit growing out of Sanders' striking with his car in Pasadena two women, Mary and Jessie Wiley. $125,000 FIRE LOSS SEATTLE, May 29. — With a loss estimated at $125,000 the original plant of the Matzen Woolen Mills at Kirkland, across Lake Washington, was in ruins today as the result of a fire.

Machinery Co., makes the Anaheim Metal Industries practically a state-wide industry with plants in fourteen California cities and at Corciscana, Texas. The fourteen cities are Long Beach, Los Angeles, Pasadena, Berkeley, San Jose, Lompoc, Presno, Ontario, Ventura, Madera, Haleyon, Fontana and Monterey. Three sizes of tile are being made a 12-inch, eight-inch and six inch. The local plant has a capacity of 500, 809 and 1,000, respectively per day, or a total of 2309. Recently samples were sent to Japan where the government will make tests of them with the view of using them to rebuild Tokyo and Kobe. The tile withstand earthquake completely, as was shown in the San Bernardino quake, and fire also, as the big Astoria blaze proved. Berkeley is using thousands of them in rebuilding after the big fire there. The 12-inch block is a new product. Interlocking these blocks require no cement; altho cement may be used with them if preferred. BISHOP BROWN ASKS QUERIES OF FELLOWS (Continued from Page One) ent day duries soccity litterals the HOLIDAY FEELING IN STOCK MARKET NEW YORK, May 29—a holiday atmosphere prevailed in the stock market today. The approaching three day suspension of trading was by no means conducive to speculative operations. Whatever initiative was shown was toward lower prices but short selling was desultory. Still, this promise imported a rather heavy tone to the going list. The only group in which operations for the decline were conducted with a certain measure of success were the oils. Years backed their selling on the further expansion in the country's crude oil production during the week ended May 24, and the increase of $3,287,090 barrels in the crude oil stocks in April. Rumors also were persistent that large independents in the mid-comment field were about to cut prices and that last year's pro-rating policy by pipe lines would again be put into effect. Losses from a fraction to a point were established in most petroleum insuos with Coden hitting a new low for the current year. Sugars and rubbers displayed a steadier tone due to the closing out of short commitments but steels, equipments, motors, accessories, copper, leather and shipping tended slightly lower. Railroad stocks were practically neglected. Perse Marquet was the only strong stock of the group. Money conditions were extremely easy. Call loans were renewed at three percent but borrowers were able to obtain fresh accommodations at 2%. London grains were firm. Bonds were irregular. Both the $45,-000,000 B. & O. and the $7,734,-999 New Orleans. Texas & Mexico offerings were reported heavily over subscribed. Foreign exchanges were heavy. Nothing transpired in the last hour to stir up interest. Some fair buying developed in the public utility group. The market closed steady.

BISHOP BROWN ASKS QUERIES OF FELLOWS (Continued from Page One) cut day divines accept literally the marvellous stories of the Bible. The effort to put his brother rishops on record is the crux of Bishop Brown's defense against heresy charges brot against him. His questionpaires contains such questions as: "Do you believe: 'That God made the world in six days and rested on the seventh?' 'That Eve was made of Adam's rib as he slept.' 'That the serpent talked with Eve about forbidden fruit.' 'That Adam lived 220 years and Methuselah 969?' 'That God told Noah to build the ark?' 'That only Noah and those with him survived the flood?' 'That there were three sons of Noah, and of them the whole earth has been overspread?' 'That God did eat when Abraham set before him butter, milk read a dressed calf?' "That Lot's wife, looking back, became a pillar of salt?" "That when Moses stretched out his hand, God drowned the Egyptians." "That God ordered the sons of Levi to slay every man, his brother, companion and neighbor?" "That God erased Palainin's ass to speak?" "That Jesus literally and carnally the son of God?" "That Jesus walked on the water?" "That Jesus turned water into wine?" "That Peter restored to life Dorcas who had died?" These are only a few of the 404 specific questions. Bishop Brown after 40 years in teaching the Word, frankly states he does not believe any of it—literally He declares he accepts it all in a symbolic sense. He accepts it as he accepts Aesop's Fables, but in no other way. If we can show that other educated churchmen likewise refuse to believe these things ever literally happened," said the bishop. Then the case against me falls down or the vast majority of bishops in the church must also be brot to trial for heresy." Canada will erect six government radio stations to keep in also, as the big Astoria blaze proved. Berkeley is using thousands of them in rebuilding after the big fire there. The 12-inch block is a new product. Interlocking, these blocks require no cement, although may be used with them if preferred.
