Contractor's Home Is
Protected by Cordon
Chicago, Mar. 3.--(AP)--The home of
H. B. Barnard, builder of the Albert
Billings memorial hospital on the
University of Chicago campus, was
guarded by police today.
Several weeks ago, Barnard's construction
superintendent,
Phillip
Meagher, was shot and seriously
wounded, believed by police to be the
result of a labor dispute.
This shooting was one of the causes
that aroused Col. Robert Isham Randolph,
head of the association of
commerce, to form his secret committee
of six to combat crime.
Recent actions of two men lurking
constantly for several days about the
Barnard home resulted in the placing
of the police guard.
