Fourth Is Due to Be

Three gangsters who protessed inno-
cence in the Allen B. Wilson staying
when arraigned in Rockville yesterday
were back in their cells at the District
Jail today, with the States case against
them reputedly strengthened by . con-
fession from one Of their underworld
companions.

source that william Cleary, one-time

and will be held in the Rockville jail
until called to take the stand. He
was not brought into court for the ar
raignment proceedings yesterday.

Dunn, Sutton and Myers, nattily

lookup was without incident.

prisoners showed no emotion as they
passed the murder scene, however.
Upon their arrival in Rockville, the
defendants were rushed through
basement door and hustled directly to
the court room, where more than 100
spectators had assembled. Deputies
searched the spectators for firearms
as they filed into the room.
Secretary of State Thomas L. Daw-
son, who represented Sutton. and
Samuel S. Levin of Baltimore, counsel
for Jenkins, both asked for jury trials
for their clients. Dunn was not repre-

sci before he decides whether he de-
