Dry Raider
Slayer is Given
a Clean Bill
Grand Jury Does Not Act Against
Man Who Tired Fatal SLot
at Illinois Woman
Geneva, 111. The Kane county
grand jury failed to vote a true bill
Thursday against Deputy Roy Smith,
who shot and killed Mrs. Lillian De
King in a raid on her home last
month, according to reliable informa
tion. Eugene IJoyd Fairchild, dry
investigator, whose false affidavit of
buying liquor at the De King home
resulted in the raid, was charged with
perjury in a true bill.
The action against Fairchild was
taken after some hours cf debate
and two dnya and a half of investi
gation. Failure of the grand jun
to vote bills against Smith and other
members of the raiding squad gives
i them a clean bill of health.
I The grand jury will meet again
Tuesday to return the indictment
against Fairchild. Further artion
might be taken by the investigating
body at that time altho it is harly
regarded as probable.
It had been rumored during the
day that many of the jurors f.ivored
indictment of Joseph De King on
charges of dry law violation and also
Eugene Boyd Fairchild for perjury.
Then surprise witnesses at the
, close of Wednesday's session testi-
i fieii to buying liquor of De King,
Imshnnd nf thp Jilnfn woman, over
a three year perio(1. No other reason
for this testimony could be found,
ex(.ept that ,t was to prove De King
! guilty of violating the prohibition

According
