Suffolk, Va, Feb. 11.-(SpeciaD-The
buncO men go on for indictment in
the County Court. That's what Mayor
Brewer said this morning when he had
heard all the evidence. Daniel Hall,
respectable colorcd man, of Chucka-
tuck, told Il graphic tale about the
confidence men getting over $50 of his
cash. Other damaging witnesses
against the defendants were Sergeant
John w. Ames, Jr., and Deputy II. T.
NOrflcct.
But the worst witness of them all
was Beverly Terry. member of the
gang. who turned States evidence. He
told with emphasis about the practices
employed by his companions, Ed. Gre
CORY and Ned Shields. This confess
sion didn't keep Terry from being sent
on with his partners in crime, though
he will likely be dealt with more
lenicntly. The men were locked up
without bail to await the grand jury's
session.
