McDonald, also a gambler, mistook Wilson for their intended victim. McDonald, according to underworld rumors reaching the investigators, had encroached on Killeen's numbers ter- | ritory. | From a well-informed source here, however, it was learned the local po- lice have no evidence tending to prove Killeen had any connection with the case. | Nevertheless, Lieut.

The firearms will be compared with | evidence already in possession of the Wilson squad, while the papers will be scrutinized for evidence pointing to Killeen's possible connection with enemies of McDonald. Little significance was attached to the shotgun, which was of a much smaller gauge than the weapon used to kill Wilson. Also found among Killeen's posses- sions were several boxes of envelopes bearing the name of the Richmond Club, a Washington gaming establish- ment on Fourteenth street, in which, police say, Killeen owned a half inter- est. The club is now closed. Pugh said police obtained their first “break” in the Wilson case at this club, but he refused to divulge the nature of the information. Was Hiding From Gunmen.

DIRECTOR Administration Protecting Negro Race From Relief Pressure, Recovery Group Told. By the Associated Press. Aubrey Williams, acting Works Prog- ress director, said last night it had been necessary for the administration | to protect the Negro from “some con- scious and some unconscious discrim- Inatory practices in the administra- tion of relief.” Addressing the joint Committee on National Recovery, Williams declared the Negro had been the “worst victim of the depression,” and that at one time one-fourth of the race was on relief. Constituting one-tenth of the population, he added, Negroes made up one-sixth of the relief rolls. The joint committee was described as representing 23 national colored organizations which claim a member- ship of 125,000. Williams said “local traditions” #dded to the relief administtation's difficulties in avoiding discrimination against the race. He emphasized that every effort was being made to avoid such discrimina- | tion, both in relief and W. P. A. ac- tivities, mentioning employment of Negroes as relief administrators, in- vestigating cases of alleged discrim- Inaton and reserving national youth administration grants. i ing from gunmen and was killed by a \ friend. | It was well known the gambler be- | lieved he had been “put on the spot” | by Philadelphia gangsters and, there- fore, took pains to conceal his move- ‘men's, seldom staying long in one place. | For weeks he stayed aboard his cabin cruiser, anchored off Colonial Beach, where he was relatively safe from a surprise attack. One official sald he was informed | Killeen had recently “turned in” a | rival gambler, with the result that the latter’s establishment was raided and a $2500 roulette wheel confiscated. This man, it was said, had sworn to “get” Killeen, Accused Garnett, Killeen also went to United States Attorney Leslie C. Garnett several months ago and accused that official of “turning the local gambling rack- ets over to outsiders.” This was in- terpreted as indicating Killeen was being hard pressed by out-of-town | interests, including the Philadelphia gang reported to have taken control of Jimmy La Fontaine's place on| cluding the Mohican Club, which was | Bladensburg road. It was also said out-of-town gam- blers have been seen recently in Georgetown, watching the places Kil- leen formerly frequented.

The woman was wearing a man’s undershirt and bathrobe. Pugh said Killeen apparently had been spending a great deal of time at the Conduit road house. There were chickens in the back yard and provisions in the ice box, and the closet contained & number of men's suits. Killeen was wearing two huge dia- mond rings when his body was found by police. These, together with a cost- ly watch, a watch chain studded with pearls and a knife bearing his ini- | tials, “E. V. K.,” were turned over to Pugh. Pugh said the watch, chain and knife were found hidden in a closet. Long a Gambling Operator. Killeen operated a gambling house on Conduit road about one mile from the District line for 10 years, accord- ing to Secretary of State Thomas L. Dawson, former State's attorney for Montgomery County. Dawson said the place had been raided & dozen times, but authorities never had been able to find sufficient evidence to convict Killeen. Dawson also said a number of gambling places were operating | patronized by the wealthier class. | " The house in which Killeen was slain is a two-story, yellow stucco structure. Neighbors said Killeen built the house several years ago, but had lived there only for brief periods. Woman Waited For Police. When Policeman E. R. Jones of the Montgomery County force ar- rived in response to Mrs. Maddox’ telephone call, he found the woman waiting for him at the front door, “What's the trouble?” Jones in- | along Conduit road at the time, in-| brother and nephew talked with the police and then left. Son of Bryan's Friend. A son of George Killeen, close friend of the late William Jeunings Bryan, the dead man grew up in Georgetown, | where his family was well known. His father, it was said, made large finan- cial contributions to each of Bryan's vpresidential campaigns. In additica to the brother and nepiew, he hes three sisters, Miss Sue Killeen, 2726 Connecticut avenue, em- ployed at the Farm Credit Administra- tion; Miss Margaret M. Killeen, also of the Connecticut avenue address, employed at the recorder of deeds oflice, Newark street, wife of the Democratic national committeeman for the Dis- trict. liquor shop at 1333 Wisconsin avenue. Killeen's criminal record extends over a long period of time, but he has had only three serious brushes with the law, emerging victorious in each case. Once Tried for Murder. His first major difficulty came in 1921, when he was brought to trial in Rockville on a charge of murdering Mrs. Bessie Harris during a party at the Cabin John Hotel. Mrs. Harris allegedly was shot down when she attempted to separate Killeen and Burnett W. Tanner in a fight. Six months later Killeen was acquitted, but on the following day pretty Eve- Iyn La Rue, who had testified for the gambler, died of an overdose of poison in a Washington hotel. Some six years ago he was tried in Rockville on gambling charges and again acquitted. In 1930 he was defendant in a sensational gambling trial in District | Supreme Court. The jury was out for hours, but finaly found him not guilty. He was arrested numerous times gorlgzéty offenses, beginning on May, ! Paid Small Fines. | In 1926 the grand jury fgnored gaming charges against him. Other arrests were for drunkenness, disor- derly conduct, assault and vagrancy.

In 1907 he paid a $25 fine on a gaming charge and in 1925 he ‘!orrened $50 on a similar allegation, Killeen was long identified with Sam Beard, another gambler leader, and Mrs. Joln F.

A memorial to the late Mrs, Mary F, Henderson, who was keenly interested in the city's development, is under consideration for erection in Meridian Hill Park by the Fine Arts Commis- sion, it was learned yesterday. This development came after the commission and officials of the Na- tional Capital Parks inspected the armillary sphere, cast in bronze and set up in the south end of the lower garden at the foot of the cascade in Meridian Hill Park. Committee Designated. John M. Howells, Pine Arts Com- mission member. and Horace W. Peaslee, Washington landscape archi- tect, who has been consultant on the Meridian Hill work, were designated a special committee to study an ap- propriate memorial to Mrs. Henderson, whose famous castle is located just across Sixteenth street. At Merdian Hill Park, along Six- teenth street, there is a niche which is under consideration for the Hen- derson memorial, inasmuch as it is 20 feet high and 8 feet wide. tain of simple design may be installed cials said today.

Heading the inspection party was Dr. Charles Moore, chairman of the | Fine Arts Commission, who was ac- lee and H. P. Caemmerer, executive | secretary, as well as C. Marshall Finnan, superintendent of the Na- | tional Capital parks, and Malcolm Kirkpatrick, landscape architect of the local parks. | Killeen Cleared Of Gaming When Given Beer Right |Aleohol Board Found Man of ““Good Moral Character.” Because no proof that Eddie Kil- leen was connected with the gambling racket could be adduced, the Alcoholic Beverage Control Board a year and | & half ago found him of “good moral character” and granted him a whole- | sale beer license. Its action followed a hearing at which Lieut. George M. Little, veteran police raider, testified Killeen was “known as a big-shot gambler.” Under cross-examination, however, the policeman admitted he could not sustain the allegation with facts. Testifying under oath, Killeen said: “I am not now and have not been engaged in gambling, either directly or indirectly.” Explaining his failure to produce evidence against Killeen, Kittle said: | “He stays in the background and we can’t get him.” Killeen was agent for a nationally known brand of beer and conducted an extensive business here. Later, it was learned on good authority, he re- tired from the beer business, which continued to be carried on in his name. racketeer, who was killed here by gangsters on April 21 of that year. She was released later. Police records show she was ar- rested here 10 times between 1924 and | 1933, On February 6, 1933, she was | arrested for violating the narcotic | laws and was sentenced April 7, 1933, | to serve from one to two years in the | | penitentiary. She was paroled after serving 13 months, and shortly there- after began living with Killeen, police were told. She also has been arrested on charges of disorderly conduct, intoxication and | destroying private property. Knew Killeen for Years. Mrs. Maddox. whose maiden name was Callaghan, told police she had | known Killeen since she was 14 years | old. She told police she had not been living with her husband, John, for | some time. | An autopsy performed on Killeen |by Dr. W. S. Murphy revealed one bullet entered just above the hip. The | other bullet lodged in the abdomen. Both slugs were found in the body. | Dr. Murphy also treated Mrs. Mad- dox for bruises. He gave her a drug to quiet her and she was reported sleeping in the Rockville Jail at midnight.

Fearful of Italian air raids, prace tically all the legations and mis- sions in Addis Ababa have construc- ted underground shelters, Dr. Tesla C. Nicola, Seventh-Day Adventist mis- sionary and surgeon’to the Ethiopian imperial family, stated in a letter just received by his aunt, Mrs. M. E. Cady, 70 Flower avenue, Takoma Park, Md. The determination of the natives to withstand the invaders was partic- | uarly emphasized by Dr. Nicola, who left headquarters of his sect in Ta- koma Park two years ago. Warriors Eager to Fight. He described the turbulent situ- ation in the capital, seething with warriors eager for battle. “Yesterday, there was a review of the natives who have come in from | the interior and are on the way north,” Dr. Nicola wrote. “There were tens of thousands of | them flowing and flooding like a tur- {bulent river. No special order, but each chief surrounded by his men. All types of guns were in evidence, as | were swords, spears, shields and even | some field pieces that may have been captured at Adowa 40 years ago.

HE wife of Eddie Killeen, de- I serted last August for the woman who killed him, has- tened to claim his bullet- riddled body when she heard of his !denth yesterday afternoon. Grief-stricken, but dry-eyed, she told last night of their life together. Only praise for the dead gambler came from her lips. H She blamed his alienation from her, and his recent heavy drinking, on Mrs. Lillian Maddox, held by Maryland police as his slayer. Although bitter against the woman, Mrs. Killeen did not name her in the divorce suit she filed here October 10. “I was a better sport than she was,” she said. Although supposed to have made a fortune from his gambling estab- lishments, the divorce petition of Killeen's wife stated he had an in- come of $1,000 a month. Mrs. Kil- leen charged in her suit that his cruelties had driven her to attempting suicide. Former Stenographer. | Mrs. Killeen was Miss Florence V. Underhill, a stenographer, before her | marriage here to the burly gambling chieftain nine years ago last Hallow- een. Judge Robert E. Mattingly per- | formed the ceremony. | “I knew he was a gambler then™ said the quiet-spoken widow, “but I didn't know anything about gambling.” But she learned soon afterwards of the danger and intrigue attending her | ! husband’s life. In the seclusion of | their fashionable home. she often urged him to give up his underworld career. “But it was no use to point out the danger to him,” she said. “He didn’t know what fear was.” Despite her worry for her husband’s life and welfare, she was happy with him until just before they separated. —=Star Staff Photo. After that, however, Killeen continued to pay all her bills and gave her a $25 weekly allowance. Mrs. Killeen's parents are dead she said, and they died knowing | nothing of what manner of man her husband was. And her brothers and sisters, living in a small New Jersey town, do not know even now, she added. Their marriage was childless, al- though both wanted children. Mrs, Killeen said. Its outcome might have been far different, she admitted, had there been a son or daughter. Consideration for Wife. That Killeen, even after estrange- ment. still respected his wife's feel- ings was evidenced by a remark when deputy marshals served him with no- tice of the divorce suit as he was leaving Mrs. Maddox's home in the 2500 block of Third street northeast. “Don’t let my wife know where you found me.” he implored. Mrs. Killeen said she neither saw nor heard from Killeen after he left her, although he called their home Friday while she was absent. It was Friday night that he went to his Brookmont, Md., home with the Maddox woman. He was slain there. Mrs. Killeen heard of her husband’s death over the radio. Immediately she | called police headquarters and verified it. As socn as she partially recovered from the shock she went to the home of her sister-in-law, Mrs. John F. Costello, 3149 Newark street, for com- fort and advice. Later she returned home, and then went to the W. W. Chambers under- taking establishment, 517 Eleventh street southeast, where arrangements were made for a Cathclic funeral service at 10:30 a.m. Tuesday. Burial will be in Mount Olivet Cemetery. State’s Attorney James H. Pugh of Montgomery County said he would release the body before noon today, THETA TAU CLUB | WILL BE FORMED | | Engineering Fraternity Alumni | Arrange Organization De- tails at Meeting.

They had no breakfast or lunch yesterday. Shortly after 12:30 p.m., she made some reference to Killeen's estranged wife and he took offense. Killeen attacked her and blacked | her eye, she told Pugh. Pugh said the woman's eye was dis- colored and she was also bruised about the mouth, nose, leg and hip. She said that after Killeen had beaten her, he grabbed his revolver, | which was lying on the bed room | table, and shouted: “I'm going to kill you. You're no good.” Shot Him in Back. The woman said she persuaded Kil- Jeen to put the gun back on the table. He walked to the opposite side of the bed, where he sat down with his back to her. Pug.: said the woman then told him she grabbed the revolver and shot him in the back and abdomen. She said she didn't know how many times she fired. * She said they had been drinking | regularly throughout the evening and | Following the woman to the second- story bed room, Policeman Jones found Killeen sprawled on his back on the floor near a bed. “I shot him because he tried to beat me up,” Mrs. Maddox was quoted as saying. She displayed bruises. A hasty examination showed two bullets had entered Killeen's body. There were also two bullet holes in| the wall. Two “Bird Cages” Found Among the house “furnishings” were two chuck-a-luck cages, dubbed “bird cages” by the gambling fra- ternity, and used to roll large dice by means of a handle.
