The Clark woman was arrested with
Ruth Banks, another white woman,
soon after the police here had gathered

Scott was arraigned Tuesday and
pleaded guilty, the other three standing

The Clark woman has been on trial
since Tuesday, the case going to the
jury yesterday afternoon at 3 o'clock

was returned.
Immediately following the compile

charge as the Clark woman. The jury
in the latter case was secured just
before the adjournment of court last
