RED GEARY, POLICE BELIEVE

Boston, July "a. The police officials,
in the light OF Investigations INTO the
condnet and history Of George Leak, a
colored youth, are satisfied that he, with
a companion, known as Red" Derry,
know something Of the murder OF Mrs.
Emma o. Parrow. who was killed in her
suite at the Hotel Lafayette on Tuesday
afternoon, and are equally certain that
the motive which prompted the crime
was robbery, large amount Of iewelry
and what money there was in the room
having disappeared.
II is known, the police say, that
about month ago, Leak and Derry
talked Of rings, jewelry and money in
the possession Of a woman named Dow
ncy, name sometimes used by the dead
woman, which was not difficult Of access.
The evidence at hand, Chief Watts says,
shows that the pair were together on
the day OF the murder and that about 10
o'clock they were seen to approach the
Hotel Lafayette, Leak entering while
Derry remained outside on the steps.
Less than half hour later, Leak came
out, called Derry and they went OF to.
Pther At this point, the inyestiga
tions OF the police failed OF further
progress and their efforts are now d..
rected toward those places frequented
by the two men.
