Wren and Wiltshire.
When this case gets to the grand
jury. 1t will prove of great interest,
as there is a woman named Bessie
Hopkins, now serving two years in
the penitentiary on conviction in
the Hastings Court on her own tcsti-
rony. OF having committed the rob-
berries. which Minnie Adams now says
were committed by herself. The
Adams woman confessed to the thefts
to Tirnes-Dispatcl reporter the
night she was arrested. and also con-
fessed to the detectives. This makes
the case most interesting. as the Hop
kins woman at the time of her trial
early in February also confessed.
The robberies We're committed early
In the winter. and the detectives have
been working on the case ever since.
1T may turn out that the women were
accoinplices, but the Adams woman
declares that she was the only one
implicated.
The case went on to the grand Jury
yesterday, and will be heard at the
April term of the Hastings Court. In
the meantime. tho Hopkins woman will
remain at the penitentiary until 1t Is
shown she had nothing to do with the
robberies.
