Belief wac expressed by the police,
however, that the victim was shot by
a shotgun, because of the size of the
wounds. Two shotguns were later
found by the police in the basement
of the house in front of which the
man was picked mp, and one of the
weapons gave evidence of having been
lust discharged and reloaded. Five
large holes also were found in the

For Tests to Determine American
Team in 0lympiad.

Cambridge. Mass, July l6,-The first
OF the trials which will determine the
complexion of the United States track
and field team at the Olympic games
were held to-day in the Harvard stadi-
um. With the junior national cham
pionship meeting of 10 events as a
curtain raiser, the preliminary heats
of the combined Olympic try-outs and
national senior championships were
advanced by the Olympic committee
from the program of tomorrow to late
afternoon to-day.
Trials for the big games were held
in all running events short of the mile,
and brought into action the greatest
field of sprinters ever gathered in this
country. Each section sent to the
games a man with record of less than
10 seconds for the century dash, with
Paddock and KiTksey of the Pacific
coast, Scholz. of the middle west,
Murchison and Hayes of the east and
Lee Carey of the navy among them.
For the halfmile run also quality
ran high in Eby of the east. Don Scott
of the army. Meehan, Campbell and
Joie RAY of the middle west. Raw has
set himself the task Of running both
the half-mile and the mile, with special
effort incidental to the latter event
t. set a new record for l,5O0 meters.
Ii was expected that a new world ;
mark would be made for the 40O-yard
hurdles event. in which Meanix of the

which brought the country's feetest
