The four named are brutal-jooking fellows, who appear just cowardly enough, when surported a crowd, to make such an attack on a lone woman ina dark street. The charge was for robbery, and they pleaded not quilt . Miss Sullivan is a young lady of intelligence, sprightly, and generally respected in George- town. She looked quite pale and feebl< from the effects of her injuries. She testified that she got out of a car corner of 3d and Market streets. when this crowd of roughs Surrounded her. She tried to fall behind them, bat the: would not allow it. She then tried to wal ahead, but was followed closely by them, and when she reached her home she was crowded close up by the window shutter when she was struck. She knew nothing until she was raised up by one of the assailants to take somethin; from her. She opened her eyes, and one 0! them was standing over her with her bundle under his arm.
