JOHNSON STORY UNTRUE
Witness Is Discovered by State Who
Was Talking to Dunn a Few
Minutes Before the
Shooting.

The condition of Commissioner T.
j. Hickey, who was shot by William
Dunn Tuesday evening is reported as
favorable at st. Jospeh's hospital.
Many incidents that occurred just
before the shooting are being brought |
to light by the investigation of the po- /
lice and states attorney. Chief among
these is the fact that the story OF
Harold Johnson who claimed to have
been the first man on the scene and
who kicked the gun out OF Dunn's
hand, was somewhat twisted
according to the police. john
son. in his statement to the press
Tuesday night, said that he ran across
the street after Dunn and, catching
him by the arm led him to the station.
1t has developed since that Dunn was
turning into the alley on his way to
the station when Johnson caught up
with him and that he did not have
hold Of Dunn's arm at any time.
The man who took the gun away
from Dunn picked It up from the side
walk and put 1t in his pocket. He
afterwards delivered 1t to Captain
Fuqua at the police station.
The star witness, whose name is
being withheld by the states at
torney's office is young man who
was talking to Dunn at the time Dunn
first saw Mr.. Hickey walking up the
street 1t has been impossible to get
a statement from this man, who is
following instructions from Mr.. Craig
regarding talking for publication. II
/ is known, however, that this man will
be the star witness for the state al
the trial in September.
There was a wild rumor on the
/ streets last night that news of Mr..
4 Hickey's real condition was being sup
pressed at ST. Joseph's hospital and
by the police. This rumor proved tt
be nnfounded. He is resting easil.
| and secured some sleep last night.
i The attending physicians said thi
morning that no effort had yet bee
made to locate the bullets in Mr.
Hickey's body and that unless the
4 became troublesome, would be ALLOW
ed to stay there.
