art, who formerly had a room in
the Hunter home, had left Wash.
ington for Mexico, ostensibly to

lent testimony, and asked the jury
to bring indictments against all the
guilty parties.
Sheriff Howard Fields today said
that he has not yet received from
the clerk of the Arlington county
circuit court the. warrants for the
arrest Of DR.. Hunter and Stewart.
