was required to make them good.
Collected Similar Notes.
He is then said to have pro
cured Brewer to assist him in
getting together a similar amount
of notes belonging to customers
of his company and held by the
latter for safekeeping and col
lection. These notes, secured by
deeds of trust on the ShOreham
Hotel, were used to replace the
released notes belonging to his
fathers estate, it is said.
Two counts are contained in
the indictment, one alleging the
removal of 1873 promisSory notes
on the Shorham Hotel making
up the total of $162,150 required
by the bank and concealing them
by depositing them in the bank
which might have reSold them
to innocent parties and injuring
the defunct firm.
EmbezzIement Charged
The second count accuses them
of embeZzling this amount from
the customers of the firm of
which they were officers and
names the holders of the notes.
1t is said that the Rheem firm
and the noteholders did not lose
by the alleged embezzlement
however, and the Rheem estate
stood the loss.
Rheem and his mother, who
held the authority under the VII
to release the bank acting as
trustees from certain liabilities,
are said to have released the
notes belonging to the cu5tomers
of the Rheem firm and they were
turned back to the bankrupt es-
tate.

less than a month old, and the
restoration of the monarchy.
The former King and Luca
Detena, publisher of the mon
archiSt newspaper "ABC," which
was suppressed on Sunday, plan
ned the present disorders during
Detena's recent visit in London,
where he interviewed the King,
GalarZa said.
Plotted Coup, Claim
Detena returned here and pub
lished an account of his interview,
in which he quoted Alfonso as
saying he would support no move
ment to restore the monarchy ex,
cept by vote of the people at a
general election.
But in reality, GalarZa said,
Detena and the King determined
to use any means, even to the
extent of utilizing Communists
and SyndicaliStS in the fOmenta-
ton of disorders, confident that
such outbreaks would speedily
bring an end to the republic.
The monarchist meeting which
was called last Sunday, and
which precipitated the subsequent
disorders, was actually called for
the purpose Of starting just such
an outbreak, Galarza said.
The republican authorities have
seized a quantity of leaflets, he
said, which showed that the
Monarchists planned to bring the
republic to an end within a
month.
See End of Riots
Following Immediately on the
fall of the Republic, the
monarchists anticipated the com
munists would rule the country
for, probably, a fortnight, and
that the reaction of the populace
to communist rule would be such
that they would be happy to
restore the monarchy.
Galarza said that the repub
lican authorities consider that
Alfonso has no claim to the
Spanish throne; that he has hac
no such valid claim since Septem
ber, 1928, when the king accepted
the dictatorship of Primo De
Rivera.
The attorney general added
that the republican authorities
have control of the situation
and expect the disorders soon tt
wear themselves out.

WOMAN 8 BOAST
.. HA[TS TRIAL

The parting boast of Mrs. Cor
nelia D. B. Calhoun to a jury in
Criminal Court in the trial of
five persons whom she accuses of
conSpiring to blackmail her
nearly caused a mistrial today.
Mrs. Calhoun completed her
third day of strenuous cross-ex-
animation shortly before the noon
recess and was finally excused
after Attorney Charles w. Arth
had interrogated her throughout
the morning. AS she left the wit
ness stand, she arose and said:
"They have spent three days
trying to break my testimony
and haven't succeeded yet"
Mistrial Demanded
ATTORNEY Arth, counsel for
James F. Bird, one of the defend
ants. and Attorney R. L. Merrick
counsel for w. Clarke Noble,
sculptor. and his wife. jumped to
their feet and moved that a juror
be withdrawn and a mistrial de-
clared.
Justice Adkins excused the jury
and during a conference that en-
sued, indicated his readiness to
comply with the motion of coun-
sci, but after another conference
between counsel. the protesting
lawyers withdrew their motions
and said that they were ready to
proceed with the trial.
The other defendants are
Stephen A. Armstrong and Mrs.
Anna M. Hillenbrand, nurse.
They are charged with threaten,
ing Mrs. Calhoun. in 1929, with
unfavOrable publicity that would
"shock the country. unless she
paid the Noble claim.
Sculptor Seeks Pay
The sculptor says he was en-
gagged to design a memorial to
motherhood which the alliance
was to erect here, and, although
he spent nearly two years in max
ing working models and drawings
to carry out the scheme he was
not paid for his work.
Counsel for the defendants be-
gan their attack as soon as Mrs.
Calhoun's direct examination was
completed when Attorney R. L.
Merrick, CharacteriZing the elderly
society matron as publicity
seeker, began asking her peril
nent questions regarding her per
Sonal and financial affairs. "
