FOR aCRAP SHOOTING"
Ten Negroes Were Arrested Yesterday on That Charge.

on That Charge.
 Captain Miles Smith together with oficsrs Canty, Cloud. Hill, Patrick and Ring surrounded the building on North Court street occupied by Frank Starr and made most successful raid. of alleged crap shooters early Sunday morning.
 Two of the officers climbed to the roof of the budding next door and sat- isfied themselves that a crap game was in progress. The patrolmen on the ground were whistled to and the officers broke open a room in which ten negroes gathered about dice on the top of a pool table. They offered prac- tically no resistance to the omcers' as the surprise was complete.
 Hearing the noise made by the or ficers in making the arrest. the pro- prietor Frank S. Starr, who was Tn an adjoining room. was awakened. He was not in the room with the players, and was not therefore taken to police headquarters.
 The names of the ten crap shooters follows:s .s.
 Ed. Lewis, Charles Douglass. Thomas Mitchell. Richard Nelson. Alonza smith. Frank Charles, Harmon Watts, Joe Simpson and Crawford Dupre. iee. 5% fnz sss

urday, Cummings being the pitcher slated to go. McMurry. one of the catchers. and Moran, one of the out felders,. were the other men framed up for pink slips. but as he had a long hard road trip of twenty-four games ahead of him. Billie decided to start out with the entire outfit.
 When his team gets on the field this afternoon, lots of new faces will be seen. Sid Smith. the hard-hitting catcher of last year. will be missing, the three catchers being all new men. though one of them will be familiar to local fans-big Ed Hurlburt. the Mem. pitchers, Russell Ford, Grant Sch opp. Mckenzie and Castleton are old men. Schopp being the left-hander whom Montgomery did not get in exchange for Walsh, Burkett being sent here in- stead. The infield is the same as last year. with Moran and Manning the new ones in the lots. Leo Walsh being sold to Texas.
 Smith said last night that he had not decided who will go in today, though 1t is probable that Grant Schopp will do the act.

STILL AT LARGE.
The Negro, Randolph. is Badly Wanted
 in TsirmIMRhaOs


 Birmingham. May 3.-(Special. )-- According to Lucien Brown. chief dep- uty sheriff. the negro Randolph. who is a member of nekr" lodges. knows much about the killing ot 3otornaE Watkins several nights ago. and is most likely the same fellow who was fired upon a few nights later at 5nythe Mines, several miles below the city. when Deputy SHeriffs Brown and Cousson got after him.
 A lot of paper found at the home of Randolph and also in the coat which he left behind. when the two deputies got after him at Smvthe. corresponded. As in the case of Dix. the negro who killed a street car man by stabbing him and after being sentenced to hang made a most sersational escape from the county iail and has never been recaptured. Randolph is a member of neero lodges. The deputies assert. that the murder of Watkins took place on Avenue F and 26th Street and that Randolph lived on 32nd Street and Av- enue G.
 A full description of the negro sus- pected of having killed the street car man the past week has been well cir- culated throughout the country.
