CARACAS CAREER IN CRIME:

The fatal shooting of Garcia rids the
country of cunning, cruel and des-
perate crook For weeks he roamed
about the city at nights, robbing resi-
dences almost at will and under the
noses OF police officers. He was an ex-
pert porch climber, but did not coRfine
his efforts to that branch of crime
alone. He was also a hold-up, safe
cracker and all round crook, Among
the homes he looted in this city We're
those of Mai Millet, $50 South Tenn
pie street, j. j. DAILY, 3l9 South Tenn
pie street. Stole thousands OF dollars
worth of jewelry and silverware.
Wearing rubber shoes he could climb
up porch with the agility OF n mon
key. He usually operated while the
inmates of "A house were at dinner,
Shortly after the release Of Joe Sulli-
van from the Utah state prison after
serving term of five years for burg
larry, Garcia and Sullivan met. They
wer Joined by John owens and the
three planned to hold up the bartender
at the Albany bar, This they did and
sullivan and Garcia were running away
when they saw Police Officer Charles $.

men yelled to the officer TO throw up

owens was captured here. pleaded
guilty to highway robbery and is serV-

sight completely, Officers secured the
country for him, but not a clue as to
his whereabouts could they get until
few days ago sheriff Emery got a
'.tip" that the fellow was In Seattle.
Gnrcia's father and mother and a
brother live In Colorado, and he has

cia's room were names and addresses
of several prominent Seattle people.
The officers also found Jimmy" and
an electric dark lantern.
Sheriff Emery had warned the officers
as to the character of Garcia and they
went prepared for desperate and bloody
work. They knew Garcia would be
well armed and that he would shoot
on the slightest provocation. While
some of the officers were in waiting on
the opposite side of the street, Adams
and Clark we're not more than 20 feet
behind him. both watching him and
ready to shoot him down on the slight
est show of resistance. When Holland
fired the shot that brought the man
down. the detective leaped upon Garcia
and tore the revolver from his hand.
Garcia was armed with one 3S-caliber
and one 4l-caliber revolvers.
The shooting was over within a few
seconds, but 1t attracted thousands to
the scene, and by the time the police
automobiles arrived, the street was
solid mass of curious humanity.
