Extracting tweets of a hashtag tweeted from a specific location using twitter4j

I tried to extract all the tweets of hash tag tweeted from a specific location like below

Query query = new Query("Obama");
GeoLocation gl = new GeoLocation(40.7127,74.0059); // geo location of Newyork
query.setCount(100);
query.setLocale("en");
query.setLang("en");
query.setGeoCode(gl, 50, "Query.MILES");

But, I got an empty result. I got all the tweets on Obama before using the setGeoCode method. Where did I go wrong?

Call query.setGeoCode without quotes around Query.MILES:

query.setGeoCode(gl, 50, Query.MILES);
