TWO MORE ARRESTS 0N CHARGES OF
 SELLING LIQUOR
Understood Federal Agents Will Take CogniZance of
 Matter.

Coming after all the excitement of Monday over the wholesale arrests of bootleggers, yesterday was a quiet day, only two arrests being made by Constable Clint Green and his depu- ties.
 Ed Joplin and Eugenia Simms, both negroes, and the latter a female, were the defendants in the charges filed yesterday.
 "l guess we're about at the finish of tho campaign now" said Constable Green early last night, as he started for home. "I had only two hours catch up tonight"
 That the federal authorities are in vestigating or will investigate into the cases. with view of starting prosecutions for violations of the fed eral internal revenue law, was re-
 ported yesterday, although nothing of an official nature could be learned. Although many of the negroes ar rested have retained attorneys. it is generally reported quite number of the defendants have signified their in- tention to enter pleas of guilty. Most of the negroes arrested have been released from jail. havine fur nished the required bond of $350 in each case.

 the constable's department. on evil
 dence said to have been gathered by two negro detectives brought to Pin }
 Bluff to. work up the cases, consid- erable interest attaches to a recent
 decision of the Louisiana supreme court, which. in brief, is that. the tes- timony of 'tspotters" in bootlegging cases must be corroborated.
 The matter was discussed at some
 length in the Shreveport Times of
 Sunday following the action of the
 prosecuting attorney at Shreveport in
 deciding to mol pros. B eases of al-
 leged violations of the liquor law.
 The Louisiana. case, in which the
 decision was rendered hv the hiehest court in the state, originated in
 Shreveport "A man was arrested for
 bootlegging. and was convicted on testimony furnished by two negro
 "spotters". or detectives. He appeal
 ed, and the supreme court reversed the Judgment of the lower court.
