Ioun" Hazard Released.

John R. Hazard, the young man who
was recently brought here from New
York to answer a charge Of being respon-
sibIe for the death of William f. Howard
at Berwyn, was given preliminary tN
animation "Wednesday morning at Hy-
attsville before Justice Arthur Carr.
When several witnesses had been exam
jned and there had been no evidence Civ
en- to connect Hazard with the case IN any
manner whatever, States Attorney Levin
abandoned the prosecution and the de-
PENDANT was discharged.
The warrant for the arrest of Hazard
was issued on the oath of Charles \. How
ard of Alexandria, father of the dead man,
who refused to believe that his son had
ended his own life He made ali investiga-
ton himself and had Detective McDevitt
of Washin gton work on the case. Then he
swore out the warrant, not accepting the
detectives advice, it is SAID, the latter
having deter mined that there was no evil
dence against Hazard.
Miss jeanette Smith, the young lady
upon whom Howard and Hazard had
called upon that particular night, the Both
of August last, was the first witness. The
young lady is about 20 years old and of a
prepossessing appearance. She stated that
Ed. Howard had called upon her Sunday
evening about o'clock. Just before he
started to leave he asked her to marry
him and she refused This apparently
had depressing effect. He strobe up
and down the room for several minutes,
stopped in front of her, and pulling re-
volver from his pocket again asked her if
she would not marry him, and she again
answered in the negative. He then put
the pistol to his right temple and explain
ed how easily it would be to kill himself.
She became very much alarmed and beg
ged him to put the weapon away, which
he did after considerable persuasion. He
then left her and went toward the Balti
more and Ohio depot. This was the last
she saw of him alive.
A. B. Smith, father of the young lady,
was next called. He testified as to the
finding of young Howard, that he was ly-
ing in front of his house, with pistol
under him.
