Especial to The Times lspatch,)
NORFOLK, VA, February 0.-Unl-
formed policemen were sent out yester-
day to prove the assertion that they arc
as effective as the detectives in citizens
clothes in arresting certain kinds OF law
breakers The result was that a large
number OF negroes were arrested for
playing crap, and many witnesses APP
pcared against them in tho Police Court.
Justice Taylor fined ten OF them s25 and
costs each, and sent all of them to jail
till they could arrange for bail. which
most Of them We're soon able to do. This
new movement on the part Of the Police
Com missioners is supposed to be the
warning that there will be the shake up
OF the police force that has been threat
ened and promised several times hereto
fore and not done. The raids and the
rigid watch that was kept on various
saloons by the police In uniform yester-
day have caused great sensation In the
city. 1t Is said that the city was SO dry
that not a drink could be found. Ger

rlous for keeping open on Sunday were
