TRIES TO SECURE RELEASE
OF MAN SHE HAD ARRESTED
Time Set for Preliminary Hearing of
Alleged Passer Of WORTH
less Check

r. S. Clark, an alleged bucket shop
speculator, who was arrested Tuesday
on a complaint sworn to by Mrs. Min
ME M. Steffens of 1852 New York
street, charging him with giving her
a valueless check for 1865, was
arraigned in Police Justice Frederick
sons court yesterday and his prelimi-
nary hearing set for Friday.
A peculiar coincidence and strange
attitude on the part of the complaining
witness were revealed following
Clark's arrest at the home of Mrs. Stef-
fens, where he lived.
Clark is alleged to have obtained
checks for $24O on giving the woman
check for $1665 as security. He men
toned that he had $1,000 credit at Lo-
gan Sc Bryan's. Later 1t was learned
that another broker, S. e. Clark, was
the man who had the credit.
Shortly after Mrs. Steffens swore to
the complaint she endeavored to have 1t
dismissed, and later tried to furnish
bond for the accused.

solidation committee was heard, it was
decided that they could act no further
in the matter until the expression of
feeling from the Occidental board had
been made known to them.
1t is evident the Occidental trustees
are proceeding cautiously and with
secrecy in their plans and are unwill-
ing to foreshadow what may happen
until something decisive has been ac-
complshed.
Although many different sites for the
location of the Presbyterian school
have been under consideration, Secre-
tary Young stated that all reports of
definite selection of any site were
unfounded The New York valley site
and other sites have been mentioned,
but, according to Secretary Young, the
| question is as far from settlement as
when the first announcement of the
| intention to remove Occidental was
made.
Secretary Sumner of the Claremont
school board OF trustees stated that
| the question of location in case the
merger proposition went through had
| not been discussed and would not be
until after the preliminary plans of
| consolidation were made and that these
cannot be considered until Occidental
gives its views on the merger.
No action was taken by the Pomona
board Yesterday afternoon toward the
appointment of a successor to DR..
! George A. Gates, retiring president OF
the school, and 1t is said that all such
plans are in a tentative shape, await
| ing the decision of Occidental on the
all-important merger question.

AS the result of decision announced
yesterday by Secretary Ballinger of

the McKittrick- Sunset district which
was withdrawn from entry several
months ago has been restored to the

A controversy had arisen between
homesteaders in that district and the
oil men. The latter asserted that the
land had been seized for agricultural
purposes simply to obtain the title to
it, when it was mineral land. Investi-
CATION by the department of the inte-
rior resulted in a finding that the land
should be restored to the public do
main.

ATTORNEY FOR TIcHEN0R
HAS HIS CASE POSTPONED
Illness and Crowded Condition OF Call
endar Cause Delay In Embez-
element Case

A request for postponement of the
date of the second trial of George M.
Tichenor, charged with embezzling
funds belonging to the Continental
Building and Loan association early IN
1907, was granted by Judge George 81
Davis of the criminal court yesterday
and the case was continued from Mon
day next until October %.
The request for delay, which was ac-
coded to by the district attorney was
made on account of illness in Mr..
Kemp's family, and the long coptinu-.
ance is due to the crowded condition OF
Judge Davis calendar and the interview
ing holidays. Tichenor stood trial on
this charge in Judge Wilbur's court
about three months ago, the jury be-
ing unable to agree.

UNION FAVORED BY
POMONA TRUSTEES
DESIRE CONSOLIDATION WITH
OCCIDENTAL
Those in Charge Of Presbyterian
School Are Slow to Express Sem
tment In Regard to Pro-
posed Merger

The board of trustees Of, Pomona
college are in favor Of consolidation
with Occidental college, but whether
the latter institution is agreeable to
the proposition is a matter of conjec-
ture. The Pomona board would like
to know At the meeting of the Po-
mona trustees in the rooms of the Fed
Grafton club, Wright & Calender build
ing. Fourth and Hill streets, yesterday
afternoon the report of the joint COM
mittee appointed to investigate the
merger question was read and ap-
proved.
The joint committee reported the
outlook for consolidation favorable and
Pomona Is simply awaiting the action
of the Occidental board. The sugges-
ton of the Pomona board for CONSOLE
dalton has been in the hands of the
Occidental board for some time, but no
response has been received.
1t was expected that the Occidental
board would meet yesterday afternoon
in the directors room of the German
American Savings bank, as a meeting
had originally been scheduled, but 1t
was 1ater called off. 1t is evident from
the action of the Occidental board that
the merger proposition does not appeal
to 1t strongly.
Rev. William S. Young, secretary of
the Occidental board, stated yesterday
afternoon that no definite action has
been taken on either the merger ques-
ton or the selection of a new site for
the college. Rev. Mr. Young, when
told of the action of the Pomona
board in coming out frankly for con-
solidation, stated that the matter would
be taken up in the near future, but
that no definite date had been assigned
for meeting.
New Site Not Determined
He also was emphatic in the state
ment that no location for tie removal
of Occidental had been decided upon
and that this important matter would
also be taken up in the near future

| tees, after the report of the joint con-
