WILMINGTON, N. C, Jan. 22.
The case charging Mary Brown, a
white woman apparently 35 years of
age, with procuring females and per
suading them to enter houses of ill
fame in violation of section 3854 "A,
of the North Carolina penal code, was
not disposed of in Recorder's eourt
today, but was continued '' until to
morrow. If the Brown woman was
in court she was not subjected to the
scrutiny of the curiosity Seekers norj
were the "witnesses called and recog
nized. Absolutely' no light was let izi
on the -matter today and those who
assembled to , hear the": details were
disappointed for it will be necessary
to make a second visit , to the court
chamber for the details;- " V . " I :: '
' The crowd in attendance was not
over-large, but an air of expectancy
i pervaded the chamber an. air which
whispered that' something out of the
ordinary was to transpire but. this
quickly gave way when 5 Recorder
George Harris announced a continu
ance -of the case. This" '. announce
ment was followed by a few words of
condolence on the part of the Record
er who stated that he saw several
"gentlemen" in attendance who were
probably present to heat the Brown
case tried and that he announced the
continuance in order not to keep' them
in suspense. ' r . t
The '.Brown woman was arrested
last night after' she had been kept
under surveillance by the officers for
several- days.' She was. carried to po
lice headquarters but was later" trans
ferred to the county jail where she
will remain until trial. . ;
It is understood that the first inti
mation of the woman's alleged ac
tivities .came in the form of a letter
t the father tf one of the supposed
victims. It was signed by a woman
living in the city, and Is understood
to have stated that Mary Brown ar
