Recent Hill Hearing Stirred

no matter how he votes
Henry Monroe, assistant in the coun-
ty clerks office for years and one OF
the most prominent negroes in the
state, announced today that negro
leaders of Kansas would meet in To-
peka, April 80, for the purpose OF
electing delegates to go before the
platform makers of the G. o. P. al
Chicago.
Dorsey Green of Kansas City; T. w.

Hill Hearing Famed Fire.
The recent Robert Hill hearing held
before Governor Allen has created a
demand from negroes thruout Kansas
for a betterment of the conditions OF
members of their race below the Ma
son-Dixon line, Topeka negroes stated
today.
The testimony revealed at this hear
ing showed that in counties where
negroes outnumbered white to 1, the
whites elected whom they pleased and
for "some reason" negroes took little
part in the election.
The fear expressed by white attor-
neys who refused to go to Arkansas
to defend Hill, saying that real physi-
cal danger threatened attorneys who
pleaded the negro's cause, prompted
negroes living in the full right of suf-
frage in Kansas to demand of their
leaders an effort at least to get what
they think is fair treatment for mem
bers of their race in the south.

GuNMAN GEARY CAPTURED.
Slayer Found Asleep in Room After
Drinking Bout.

Chicago, June 4.-"Gene" Geary,
the killer. who shot "his man" down
in cold blood and laughed at the law
for week, has been caught.
He was taken shortly after 5
o'clock yesterday afternoon by de-
tectives from States Attorney
Hoyne's office in raid on the fiat
of Double" Griffin at 436 West
Forty second place.
Geary. in bed and sleeping off his
latest drunk, was taken completely
by. surprise. He was too befuddled
by the suddenness Of the coup to
offer the least show OF resistance.
He was rushed to the states at
torney's office, where Attorney Tim
hothy J. Fell positively identified him
as the gunman who shot down Harry
J. Reckas in Jim O'Brien's Horn
Palace saloon, 4165 South Halsted
street, last Thursday night. Fell was
an eyewitness to the murder and he
himself felt the prod Of Geary's gun
muzzle against his body. 1t was
merely geary's whim that he is still
alive to testify.
Approximately 5000 members OF
the city's police force, empowered
with orders to shoot on sight," had
been given whole weeks time in
which to capture the stockyards
gangster. Altho hundreds of them
knew Geary by sight and despite the
fact that they were deluged with tips
telling of his cabareting jaunts about
town, of his nightly ar1nking bouts,
and of his open Haunting of the law,
it remained for Hoyne's handful OF
detectives-scarcely twenty-five in
number-to track him down and
bring him in.
Geary had made elaborate plans
for resisting arrest. He had planned
to fight to the death. Two revolvers.
fully loaded, were found hidden in q
stove, within his reach as he lay in
bed. A hole had been cut thru the
kitchen floor to the basement to
facilitate his flight. Evidence is in
the hands of the states attorneys
office that he made an unsuccessful
attempt to flee. Chicago Wednesday
night.
Geory denied the murder today.
The states attorneys office pre-
pared to ask his indictment by the
grand jury this afternoon.
