Hineola, May 11.—Carman Plant, fonner county detective indicted for criminally recei'dnp stolen gfoods, Aubrey Pettit, superintendent of county buUdinfifs, indicted for a similar oifence, both pleaded g-uilty before Jus¬ tice Cropsey this morning in Part I of Supreme Court,
It is said that rumors and the remarks of the Justice bear out the report that both men have agreed to make a full and free confession of all
their dealings in connection with the traffic in stolen automobiles that '''""'' '" Hempstead and gave him r.c, was rampant in Nassau County for sevei'al years. '
It was intimated last night following the night session of the court that startling revelations would come today. That it was startling or what the revelations would be are even now not known but it is known that the confession that Plant and Pettit will make today to District Attorney Weeks involves many others and there was a noticeable weakening on the part of tliose who had supported Plant at both triali and who were jubi¬ lant both times when the jury brought in a disagreement.
Tbere was no testimony taken in the cases this morning.
Both men, following their plea of guilty, were arraigned and their pedigree taken by Daniel Sealey, clerk of the court.
Theu Justice Cropsey spoke to each of them in turn: "I remand you i'>-v>. o.N.iii for sentence and in the meantime you may avail yourself of the opportunity ''''" '•' "^'' ' you have to tell the District Attorney all those things of wluch you know."
Both men were iaunediately taken away by the court officers and con¬ fined in the county jail.
