SUSPECTS TRIAL
 AGAIN CONTINUED
Defense Secures Post ponemlent in Armour
 Burglary Case

In another unexpected move in case that has been full of sur priscs, the defense today succeed ed in securing continuances till q week from Monday morning fin the cases of the three suspects held for the a3,300 burglary at Armour and Co. early last month. The accused are Alexander Church. elow, A22, former Armour ern- ploye, John Giles, 35, and Robert Burns, 26, all of whom are under bonds of $5,O0O with Churchelow being the only who has raised that amount.
 Witnesses will, be brought from Chicago. New York and other cit ies to prove the innocence of Churchelow and Burns, it was de- clared in court today by Attorney Michael Blansfield, who with Att torney George Lynch. is defend- ing those two. Attorney Blansfield em phasized that he will produce every possible shred of evidence in the lower court in an attempt to prevent bind-over to the su- pcrior court. He made it evident that the claims of innocence on the part of Churchelow and Burns will rest on alibis presented by the out of town witnesses. Giles, the lawyer said, has turned states evidence in at least part of his testimony.
 Giles, according to his counsel, Attorney Edward Sweeney, was out of the state when the burglary of the safe at Armour's took place Dec. 7th. but the lawyer said hc understands the state will charge his client with conspiracy in the sensational theft. Attorney Swcen- ey agreed to the continuance till t week from next Monday.
 Judge Edward Mascolo declined this morning to grant bond reduc- tions in the cases of Giles and Burns. stating that charges made by the state are too serious and the amount. involved too great to warrant setting a. bond at $l0,- GOO. Tn court earlier this week, defense lawyers secured reduc- tions in the bond from $10.O0O to S5.000. rN q .'"

HIDE IN CHURCH | OFICHTPOLICE
Three Hundred Mexicans
 ,Barricade Themselves and Beat Off Attacks

Mexico City, Jan. 12.-(UP).- Three hundred men, women and children. barricaded in their parish church, fought off police and fire- men today in an exchange of gum fire that left four persons dead and IA wounded.
 Apparently as part of the dis pute between the government and the Roman Catholic church, police last night expelled a priest from the Church of the Holy Ghost in the suburbs of Tacubaya.
 Parishioners, angered, gathered in front of the church after they heard the news. The rumor spread that fascist red shirts-who killed five churchgoers in a recent riot were on the way to invade the church.
 Taking their children with them, men and women of the parish bar ricaded themselves within the church building.
 Police endorsements and then the, entire fire department of the suburb surrounded the building.
 Police said that one of their number was beaten by parishioners and that they fired into the air in warning. At any rate, firing broke out. There was an exchange of shots between the police and de- lenders for half an hour. Church partisans stationed themselves on rooftops and stoned the police and firemen. Two thousand townspeople gathered around the church.
 Chief of Police Gonzalez arrived to take charge. He ordered the po- lice to withdraw and they did. Three persons had been killed out right. A fireman. one of the 14 wounded by gunfire, was. said by police 10 have died in hospital, bringing the total to four. Many police and firemen had been injur- ed by stones from the snipers on rooftops. Police feared q checkup would show more than four dead.

COUNSEL ON BOTH
 SIDES IN SECRET CONFERENCES
Reilly Has Made Strong Hints But State Does
 Not Worry

Trenton, N. J., Jan 12-UP)- Defense and state counsel entered separate conferences in the same hotel today to plan courtroom tac- tics and organize evidence that will have vital bearing on the fate of Bruno E'cllard Hauptmann. The state chiefly was concerned with counteracting innuendo and hints scattered by Defense Attorney Ed ward J. Reilly during cross exam ination. Reilly and his associates were concerned with the strong cttse so far presented by the state It was believed they must present evidence as strong or stronger if they are to save their client from the electric chair.
 The prosecution. reviewing Reil- ly's hints of what the defense would undertake to prove, profess sed to be iunworried. In cross-ex- amining Frank J. Wilson, govern ment agent, the defense intimated it would make use of the fact that a J. J. Faulkner killed himself a few months after J. J. Faulkner deposited $2,980 in Lindbergh ran som money in the New York fed- eral Reserve Bank. The state, it was said, could easily prove that the suicide was not depositor. This was an important gain for the defense, nevertheless. Wilson testi- fled that the man who wrote the deposit slip using the name of Faulkner cid not write in the handwriting of Hauptmann.
 4, The defense attorneys will be at work all of today and tomorrow ana probably late into each night. Thuy were conferring with the de- fenee hand writing experts who will say Hauptmann did not write the ransom notes, directly contra dieting the state witnesses. Haupt- mann seemed just as delighted with a two day recess as did his counsel. His nervous system, under rig,i control during the 'eight days of his trial and since his arrest, was beginning to give little evil dences of strain. Two days of quiet in his cell will fortify him for next weeks ordeal. Over the weekend the jury will be taken for long bus ride. Presiding Judge Trenchard said the jury needed fresh air. but instructed it's custodians to keep members from the Lindbergh home and other locles mentioned in the testimony.
