RAID ON POLICY WRITERS
James Walls, Mrs. Annie Walls and
Hugh Ward Arrested Monday.
POLICY SLIPS FOUND ON THE MEN
lo5 Orange Street Their Place
of Business.
SAID TO BE BACKED BY PHILADELPHlANS

James Walls, Annie Walls, his wife,
and Hugh Ward we're arrested by the
polics Monday upon the charge OF being
concerned in interest in lottery policy
writing. THIS police believe that Walls
and his wife ran the business at their
residence, No. i05 Orange street, and
that Ward kent the walking book, -
that 10, that he gathered in tho policy
pliph from outside customers.
Chief of Police JohE Il. Dolan was
recently acquainted with reports that
lottery was going on and orders were
given tha police to look out for it. On
Monlay the chief placed 10 the hands
of S,rgeants Black ana Lucas warrants
for the tbreB persons above named
The sergeants were assisted by Officers
Mcbride, Payne, Davidson anti Di Mare.
Walls was brought to the police
station about ll.3l and Ward few
minutes later. Mrs. Walls was brought
in about half an hour later. When
coached at the police station some
policy slips were found on Walls, about
81 was found on Mrs. Walls, ard policy
clips and money we're found on Ward.
Tle last named is shoemaker, whose
eiop is on Shipley etreet, below Eighth.
lie has been identified with the Single
Takers. lie had several papers on him
containing money, together with num-
bers, showing tho rows on which the
customers were desiroua Of risking their
money. Thus customer might in
vest 20 cents, divided among half
dozen given rows. The police think
that Mrs. Walls did the bookkeeping.
According TO the police the lottery
now played in this city is backed in
Philadelphia and Camden, and not by
people hers, because ths vigilance of
the authorities has discouraged the
business.
This books are written in this city,
the play continuing until about noon
and then the hooks and the monay are
carried to Philadelphia and Camden by
tho walking men, the slips are recorded
on books there and the winnings are re-
turned to this city and distributed
among the winners here.
Both Mr.. and Mrs. Walls have been
hauled up by the local authorities be-
fore, but they escaped, the grand jury
failing to find tFus bills against them.
Walls is better known as Patsy" Walls.
Walls was arrested in tho raid OF
November Both, 1896, but the bill
against him was ignored.
They were given a hearing Monday
night and held in the sum of 81, 600
bull for the upper court.
