HEAD WITH CONSPIRACY NEW YORK, Jan. 26. — Testimony was submitted this afternoon at the trial of Chas. A. Stoneham, owner of the New York National league baseball club, that Stoneham, including his brokerage business in May, 1921, and turning over his customers' accounts to the brokerage firm of E. D. Dier & Co., failed to deliver to Dier & Co. $2,403,895.84 worth of stocks of $5,383,010.46 belonging to them. Stoneham and several others are charged with conspiracy to use the mails to defraud. The charge was made by Maurice Brooke, formerly connected with the Dier firm. He also declared that Dier Co. failed to pay the debit accounts of Stoneham's customers, who are alleged to have lost $4,000,000 when the Dier firm failed in 1923. Thousands attended the great Bulgin revival services yesterday. It was a busy day for Bulgin. He delivered four sermons, three at the big tabernacle at 11 a.m., 3 p.m. and 7:30 p.m.; also, one at Brea at 1:20 p.m. A fifth service was addressed by Mrs. J. S. Norvell to women only at the First Christian church. All available space was occupied there and hundreds were turned away. Bulgin spoke to men only Saturday evening and again Sunday afternoon. Both times he faced great audiences of men. His subject Saturday evening, when members of secret orders were especially invited, was "The Man of Gallilee, a most logical and argumentative discourse on the divinity of Christ." At its conclusion, a number of men hit the sawdust trail. In the afternoon more took the step and again last night a large number professed conversion. There will be no religious meeting at the tabernacle this evening; it being rest night for the evangelistic party. Tomorrow night Dr. Bulgin will speak on the subject, "If I were the Will, What in Hell Would I Do?" Tuesday night he will speak on himbosheth." Thursday night will speak on "Is Moses Scientifically?" This is one of Dr. Bulgin's greatest sermons, as outstanding as sermon on the divinity of Christ-Carter will sing "The Holy City" that night. Tuesday night a section of the tabernacle will be reserved for a delegation from Brea. Thursday night there will be reservations for Los Angeles and Santa Ana delegations. Bulgin is anxious that the expense of the campaign be wiped up so there will be no drag of any kind on the revival efforts. With the exchange for a larger tent at an added cost of $250 and doubling of seating capacity the expense will total around $3000. The revival was only half over last night, more than two-thirds of the expense had been taken care of up to last night. Yesterday's collections ran to $700. HOLY GHOST DOCTRINE Dr. Bulgin preached to a large audience Sunday morning on the doctrine of the Holy Ghost. Folk-closing by shoel and conturning over his customers' accounts to the brokerage firm of E. D.

He also declared that Dier Co. failed to pay the debit accounts of Stoneham's customers, who are alleged to have lost $4,000,000 when the Dier firm failed in 1982. MANY TURNED AWAY FROM MEETING A representative congregation from Anaheim, Santa Ana, Brea, Fullerton, almost every town in the county filled the auditorium to overflowing into the entrance and many regretfully turned back after waiting long for entrance, was called to the Christian church yesterday when Mrs. J. S. Norvell, assisting the Bulgin evangelistic campaign party spoke to women only. In a lively songtest, everyone participated through urgent request of the jolly Baptist minister, Rev. V. K. Ledbetter, the only man privileged to be in the meeting for some time. As he graciously said "who wants to sing again and what?" songs were announced one after another. Introducing Mrs. Norvell, Rev Ledbetter said she had been ten years in China. "Yes," and I'm going again," piped up the enthusiastic, charming woman, who has been actively engaged in this work with almost every denomination of any size for 20 years or more. "God speed the day," she said, "when the denominational spirit will be overcome." Opening her address from St. Matthew, 15:21, she paid a lovely tribute to her mother, a Kentucky Baptist, and talked of the relationship between mother and daughter, the kind experienced by no other human beings. Explaining that she was not starting her meeting "wrong end to," Mrs Norvell called for tea.

HOLY GHOST DOCTRINE Dr. Bulgin preached to a large audience Sunday morning on the doctrine of the Holy Ghost. Following singing by choir and congregation, a duet by Carter and Gourlay and a solo by Carter, "My Heavenly Father Watches Over Me," there were a number of short volunteer prayers. The evangelist said: There have been three dispensations: 1—The dispensation of power; 2—dispensation of law, the ten commandments; 3—the dispensation grace and mercy. Since calvary, no man can be saved by obedience to the ten commandments alone. He must accept Christ. The Holy Spirit is a person, in the world today, to convince you of the sin of rejecting Jesus Christ. In the Bible the Holy Spirit is likened: 1—to the wind—you cant see the wind but you can see what it does; you can't see the Holy Spirit but you can see the results it brings in the life of men. 2—to water, because it cleanses. 3—to oil, because it soothes. 4—to intoxication, because you don't care what you do or say that the Holy Spirit is speaking on you. 5—to a dose, the meekest and truest fowl or animal. Theodore Roosevelt and Edward Seeton, the two greatest authorities on natural history, agree that the Palestine turtle dove which sees its route die will also die of broken heart, hence it is called the mourning dove; it will not mate again. The trouble with the church today is that there is too much society in it. The church that is strong has the Holy Ghost.

Opening her address from St. Matthew, 15:21, she paid a lovely tribute to her mother, a Kentucky Baptist, and talked of the relationship between mother and daughter, the kind experienced by no other human beings. Explaining that she was not starting her meeting "wrong end to," Mrs. Norveil called for testimony, with half a dozen talking at one time. She did not prefer the conventional way, she said, of line consecration service coming at the close of the meeting—liked better to have consecration first and go through the meeting with God. "How many know of three unsaved persons?" asked Mrs. Norveil. With many hands raised she effectively said "God will not hold us guiltless." She urged intercessional prayer. "All the evangelists coming into Anahela will not be able to win for Christ she said, "without intercessional prayer." "Many have been Christians for twenty years, and have not been at the throne of grace with one prayer of intercession." Mrs. O. Lee Shoemaker, with Mrs. Margaret Built at the piano, sang "What Will You Do With Jesus," which she had chosen for the message it brings. At this juncture Alvin Carter, solost, with Roy Gourley, pianist, came over from the tabernacle, and after a short time devoted to the budget sang "My Mother's Prayer," which he loves most because of its family association. Mrs. Norveil, again in the pulpit, told of the anguished mother whose heartstrings were torn through viewing the wreckage of her daughter—of her pathetic efforts in every way but the correct one to reconstruct the wreckage, and related her personal experience with the mother of seven (Continue on Page Six) 200,000 FRUIT TREES—All leading varieties, Guaranteed free of Ornamentals, Orange County Nursery Co., 825 N.

H. Metcalf speak on the issues to be settled at the polls Tuesday of next week. If the campaign of vituperation waged by those opposed to the law enforcement policy of the present administration has raised any questions in the mind of any voter, he should be there and hear for himself what the mayor has to say. The mayor will make a dignified but plain statement of facts. He will present figures and answer every question raised by opponents of the dry council. Mayor Metcalf's colleagues, Councilmen Emory Knipe, Dean Hasson and A. A. Slaback, as well as Harry Turton, the fifth candidate of law enforcement advocates to succeed G. J.

Jobe, of lawful age, being first duly sworn, deposes and says: he was given a letter by Captain Cahill, Asst't Capt. of Defective, Central Station, City of Los Angeles, addressed to Mr. Ernest Ganahl of Anaheim, California; reading about as follows: "Dear Ernest: This will introduce you to the man whom I spoke of, J. R. Jobe and I am sure if he is given a chance he can produce." "Signed Capt. W. M. Cahill." Mr. Ganahl read the letter and asked me to sit down till he called Mr. Cahill: he got Mr. Cahill over the telephone and Mr. Cahill asked him if he had seen me; Mr. Ganahl said yes, Mr. Jobe is in the office now and is he O. K. ?Yes, Good 9:00 p.m. at the corner of Center and Palm Street, which I did. I was standing inside the filling station talking to two men who run the filling station when later the car came up and stopped as though they were going to get air and the filling station man went around to wait on them and they told him they wanted to see the man with the light overcoat on which was me. We all got in the car and drove off together, drove around and talked for the matter of an hour and a half. They wanted to know if I had found out anything; I told them I had not; they wanted to know if I had met any one of the gentlemen personally and talked with them; I told them I had not and then they suggested that it was a very easy thing to get "Anaheim police today had in their hands four affidavits from U.S.A. Club "Investigators", two of whom are ex-convicts, disclosing the most nefarious conspiracy to besmirch men's reputations ever perpetrated in a California political campaign. The "Investigators" confess that they were unable to find a single thing to "hang on" those to whom their efforts had been directed by the U.S.A. club. "The investigators" say they were sent to Anaheim by Capt. of Detectives Cahill and Detective Cado of Los Angeles on arrangement with U.S.A. club members. The "Investigators" say they received pay from Ganahl, local lumberman; Sidnam, realtor, and Bob White, Franklin auto dealer, all prominent members of the U.S.A. club and leaders in the attempt to recall the four dry councilmen. Each of the "Investigators" stated a fourth U.S.A club member was mentioned in the various discussions but none of them would admit it was J. A. Gelsinger. All confessed they could not recall the name. J. R. Jobe, 30, "chief investigator" for the U.S.A.club was arrested Saturday night and held incommunicado in the Anaheim city jail. He is on parole from San Quentin, where he served part of a sentence on a charge of robbery preferred by the Standard Oil Co. at San Diego. His parole would have been over in a few months. Several years of the sentence still are hanging over him. Jobe was "hard-bolled" when first arrested and declared he would not "squeal", asserting that if he did he would get a shot in the back. He was allowed to think it over yesterday. Last night he finally "broke" under questioning by Roy Langworthy, chief deputy state probation officer, for ten So.Cal counties.Jobe's statement was made without prompting after he got started, and corroborated three other statements already made. Jobe had working for him Mrs. Helen Carmen Brooks, comely young woman, and her husband, Marvin Brooks, also an ex-convict. Brooks and his wife each of Central Station, City of Los Angeles, addressed to Mr. Ernest Ganahil of Anaheim, California: reading about as follows: "Dear Ernest:—This will introduce to you the man whom I spoke of, J. R. Jobe and I am sure if he is given a chance he can produce. "Signed Capt. W. M. Cahill." Mr. Ganahil read the letter and asked me to sit down till he called Mr. Ganahil; he got Mr. Cahill over the telephone and Mr. Cahill asked him if he had seen me; Mr. Ganahil said yes, Mr. Jobe is in the office now and is he O. K.? Yes, Good Bye. Mr. Ganahil asked me how much money I needed to start and I told him $50 or $100; He told me to drop down to Mr. Whites place something after two o'clock and the money would be there for me, which I did and received $50.00. From there I went to the Valencia Hotel and rented a suite of rooms Nos. 23 and 24, one for myself and one for Mrs. Brooks. I paid $25.00 in advance for one week's rent. After looking around town that night and the next day trying to get acquainted, I came to the conclusion I was up against it before I got started. I had been given by Capt. Cahill $20.00 at different times talking about this work to get started and later to be repaid to Capt. Cahill. He also gave me a list containing a number of names of Anaheim people which he instructed me to copy and I had it typed, returning the original to Capt. Cahill: the list contained the names of Mayor Metcalf, Mr. Selby, Mr. Hasson, Mr. Eden, Mr. Slack, Mr. Long, and Mr. Knife. This list briefly stated facts concerning each party and was taken from me by the police. There was also taken from me a letter I had written to Capt. Cahill turning in an expense account and a report to him which I had neglected to mail. I came to Mr. Ganahil's private office with this list from Capt. Cahill, and after showing it to him, he told me quite a little bit more that was not in the sheet of paper I had, that might help me to gather my evidence. Saturday the 17th, after I had registered at the hotel on the 15th, Mr. White called me over, then phone at the hotel about 6:20 p.m., asking me to meet him and Mr. Ganahil at they were going to get air and the filling station man went around to wait on them and they told him they wanted to see the man with the light overcoat on which was me. We all got in the car and drove off together, drove around and talked for the matter of an hour and a half. They wanted to know if I had found out anything; I told them I had not; they wanted to know if I had met any one of the gentlemen personally and talked with them; I told them I had not and then they suggested that it was a very easy thing to get acquainted with Mr. Hasson as he was a laundry driver, if nothing else send ou ta little laundry to get acquainted. As they knew in their own minds he was retailing boone from the laundry wagon. That was the end of the meeting that night. The following Monday evening—the 19th—I dropped in at the office of the lumber yard around 5 o'clock to the best of my knowledge and told Mr. Ganahil that I needed some money; he asked me to go up and see Mr. White the next day and it would be there for me. In doing so, Mr. White was not there and I was instructed by Mr. Barnhart, the shelf foreman to go to the Sidnam Real Estate company and see the gentlemen down there, which I did. The "Claudé" whom I was to see was not there and I was told to come back later about 3 o'clock, which I did, and he gave me $50.00, which he said had been left with him by Mr. Ganahil and Mr. White for me and he asked me to explain to him just what purpose I was trying to accomplish; I told him I did not care to discuss things with him until I knew who he was and that he was all right; then he showed me some reports that I had written Mr. Ganahil that evidently Mr. Ganahil turned over to him: then I asked him if Mr. Ganahil or Mr. White had explained to him what I was doing; he said somewhat, yes and then the subject of the Mayor came up between us after I had told him that Mr. Ganahil and Mr. White seemed to think Mrs. Brooks, who was down with me, might be able to go out sometime with the Mayor after she got acquainted and he (Mrs. Sidnam) said he did not think that could be did, as it was too close to election (Continue on Page Six) in the back. He was allowed to think it over yesterday. Last night he finally "broke" under questioning by Roy Langworthy, chief deputy state probation officer, for ten So. Cal counties' statement was made without prompting after he got started, and corroborated three other statements already made. Jobe had worked for him Mrs. Carmin Carmen Brooks, comely young woman, and her husband Marvin Brooks, also an ex-convict. Brooks and his wife, each of whom made statements were also held incommunicado. A fourth affidavit was obtained from R. Shirk. Police believe he did not have a great deal to do with the conspiracy, altho his statement is considered highly important from its corroborative standpoint. When Jobe was arrested he attempted to "ditch" a copy of a "report" written on Hotel Valencia stationery, and addressed to Capt. Wm. Cahill, Central Police Station, Los Angeles. At the same time he tried to throw away a tpye-written memorandum of "tips" from the U.S.A.club conspirators to be followed in their efforts to "hang something on" the dry leaders." Local police "got next" early last week that the U.S.A.club was attempting to "frame" the dry councilmen and immediately began to work on the case with complete success culminating in the signature of Jobe to his statement at 5 a.m.today. The "investigators" stated that the U.S.A.club members had gone to Los Angeles to obtain services of "detectives" who "knew enough to keep their mouths shut." They agreed that Jobe had not been overly anxious to take the job, but that he was on parole and could not very well refuse. Jobe's associates soon got sick of the job when they found out fully what was expected of them and when they saw they could never get anywhere.
