ANOTHER VACANCY.
Assistant District Attorney Campbell Has
Resigned.

Assistant District Attorney Campbell Has
Resigned.
Alexander Campbell Jr., who was third
assistant in the District Attorneys Office,
rendered his resignation yesterday. and it
was promptly accepted.
This act is understood to have been tie
direct result Of complications growing out
of n. L. Lazatd's charges against him Of
corrupt practices. Lazard was recently
convicted OF embezzlement in Judge Heb
bard's department. in which Campbell
prosecuted. Afterward he openly accused
Campbell Of agreeing TO have him acquitted
for $50, and then raising the demand to
$500.
District Attorney Barnes at once insti-
tuted AN investigation, and stated yesterday
that he was convinced Of CampbelPs inno-
cence. lie believes that LaZard made the
charges out of pure maiiee-drst because
Campbell convicted him, and also on account
of CanpbelPs having some time ago testi-
fed against him in a civil suit.
Campbell says he resigned because he did
not wish to be an impairment to the success
Of the District Attorneys Office, and further
that he has been intending for some time to
engage in private practice.
Mr.. Barnes has not yet decided whom he
will select to succeed Mr.. Campbell.
