OFFICER IN LIVELY
CHASE FOR R0BBER
The Man Pretended to Be an
Electrician
SEVERAL SHOTS FIRED
Took Watch From Room In the Morris
Hotel and 1t Is Alleged Nearly
Dozen Rooms Have Been
Robbed Recently

In the arrest of A. C. Richardson yes
terday by Detectives Murphy and Will
liams, Birmingham has been treated To
another piece of exceptionally good de-
tective work Richardson was arrested
after a long chase following his detection
at robbery in the Morris hotel. He was
tho victim of a clever trap laid by the
detectives Richardson is a barber, and
1t is believed he had been robbing rooms
at the hotel for over two weeks. He
is also the man who is believed to have
been doing the robbing of private resi-
dences on the South Highlands.
The scheme that Richardson is alleged
to have used in his work is an ingenious
one. He would go to a residence or to
a room at the hotel and pose as an
electrician, working for the Birmingham
Railway, Light and Power company. In
this way he readily gained entrance to
any OF the rooms and never failed to
help himself to anything that was lying
about loose.
1t Ia alleged that he robbed nearly Il
dozen rooms at the hotel In the last few
days in this way and all the time SEQ
at a loss to ferret out who the burglar
was. Several negro employees of the
establishment were suspected. but none
could be found in the act. The detectives
were placed on the case and as a result
OF their clever work the right man Is
believed to have been arrested.
The story of the arrest is rather siren
nous. Richardson entered the hotel yes
terday morning and went to a room as
usual.
Richardson fell into the trap set for
him as In the rooms he went to there
was man waiting for him. The de-
tectives had arranged with several men
In the hotel to keep watch on Rich
ardson and these fellows acted 'possum,'
appearing to believe Richardson's story
of coming to fix the electric lights un-
til they caught him In the very act of
robbery.
He was caught in the act of taking
Mr.. Rich's watch and pocketbook, 1t Is
alleged and the chase began Pursued
by Mr. Rich and others, the burglar fed
pell-mell down the stairway, while several
shots were sent after him.
The chase led up to Twentieth street
and by that time had been Joined by
several policemen. Richardson ran 20
the railroad yards near the Southern
freight depot and deposited his stolen
property under a box car, 1t is alleged
He was caught soon after and taken
to the city jail ard locked up and when
seen there last night he made a COM
plete denial of his guilt The detectives
say that some negroes were seen to run
and pick up the stolen goods that had
been dropped by the fleeing man and
these negroes have not yet been found,
1t is claimed by the detectives that
Richardson is from Chattanooga, and has
been in Birmingham but few months.
The detectives have a clear case against
him, they claim, and have no doubt but
what they can have him convicted when
his trial comes UP.
