Negro Shot To Death. TUSCALOOSA, Ala., Sept. 24. (AP) Dennis Cross, a negro under bond on charges preferred by a young white woman, was shot to death here early today after being taken from his home by a group of men posing as officers. Sheriff R. L. Shamblin, who, with police, began an inquiry into the slaying, said officers had found no clues to identify the slayers. The sheriff said the offense with which the negro was charged was a bailable one and that the woman had not been attacked.
