PROOF THAT WOMAN SLEW
HER HUSBAND IS LACKING
BY Associated Press.

BY Associated Press.
CLEVELAND, O., Nov. 12.-Mrs. Char
lotte Philips was freed from the charge
of killing her husband, John ]. Philipps,
a coal operator and broker, at the con-
clusion of the preliminary hearing by
Justice Brown in East Cleveland today.
The Justice held that there was not suf-
ficient evidence upon which the court
would be warranted in binding Mrs.
Philips over to the grand jury
Although Mrs. Philips is now free, the
action of Justice Brown, according to
the county prosecutor, will not prevent
the grand jury from making an indepen-
dent investigation. Mr.. Philips was
supposed to have been shot by a burglar
in his East Cleveland home on the morn
ing of September q. Conflicting state
ments on the part of Mrs Philips led
to her arrest few days later on the
charge of murder in second degree.
