UNLA FUL WIRELESS.
Six Men Face Charges of Maintaining Station.
CASE IN KOWLOON COURT.
Bail of $4,000 was fixed by Mr. Himsworth at Kowloon
Magistracy yesterday for each of the six men who were charged
with establishing, maintaining and working a telegraph station
without a Government licence, and possession of a combined
transmitter-receiver without a licence.
Mr. Peter H. Sin, representing the defendants, renewed
his application for bail. He said that the maximum fine for
the offences alleged to have been committed by his clients was
$1,000, and hoped his Worship would fix bail at that figure.
Mr. M.J. Abbott, Assistant Crown Solicitor, requested
that bail be of an adequate amount to ensure that the defendants
would appear in Court'. He anticipated that the case will be
taken summarily.
Li Yuk-Lan, 21, house boy, was discharged, as the
prosecution offered no evidence.
The defendants were Yuen Lap-kwan, 29, unemployed,
Tsui Pak-ming, 30 clerk, Chien Chi-fong, 23, secretary, Sum
Kim-chow, 30, clerk, Ting Yuk-yan, 35, clerk, and Chau Sze,
25, unemployed.
They were remanded for a week.
