IS OUT TWO HOURS
Alibi Was Proven by Defense-Hays
Claimed That He Did Not
Strike the Old
Man.
IS OUT TWO HOURS

John Hays did not cause the death
of John Cannady last fall as alleged
by the state. The jury returned a
verdict Of acquittal at 6:15 o'clock last
night after being out less than two
hours. The verdict was reached before
supper time and was formally pre-
sented to the court after the inner
man of the jurors had been satisfied.
Hays, the defendant, his wife and
several friends were in the court room
when the verdict was returned AL.
though believing that he would be
acquitted of the charge Hays was
visably affected when the verdict was
returned that made him a free man
again. He thanked the jurors feeling,
ly. Hays has been at liberty on
$1,000 bail since the indictment was
returned by the grand jury charging
manslaughter.
MansIaughter Case.
The case is one in which Hays was
alleged to have struck John Cannady
an old soldier over the head with q
dinner pail and from the effects Of the
wound he died Of blood poisoning.
Hays set up an alibi claiming that
IL VIC olO ludu WdS SLIuCh OVER LQ6
head as alleged In the indictment Is
was not by his hand that it was done
Hays claims that he was on his way
home when the alleged assault took
place and therefore by no possible
means could he be responsible for the
death.
Verdict Surprise to Cornell.
The wife Of the accused man, her
sister and the latter's husband all
testified that Hays was home by 1890
o'clock when the assault on Cannady
took place later in the evening.
Attorney Walter Coen for the de.
fense said today There could have
been no other verdict under the evi-
dence. A clear cut case Of an alibi
was proved"
"The verdict was somewhat sur.
prise to me-" said County Attorney
Cornell.

SEABOARD ATTACK
CAUSES SURPRISE
Untermyer Statements Brings
Statement From John s.
Williams Brother.

RICHMOND, Va. Jan. 4.-P. Lancas-
ter Williams, receiver for the Seaboard
Air Line railway, returned tonight to
Norfolk, while S. Davies Warfield. his
associate, left earlier for his home in
Baltimore. Neither OF them knew at
the time Of his departure Of the at
tack which had been made on John
Skelton Williams. former president of
the Seaboard and brother of r. Ian
caster Williams. by Samuel U. Inter
myer, Of New York. an associate coun-
sci in the proceedings.
The unexpected attack has had the
effect OF creating a sens-uon among
the followers Of the Williams brothers
and railroad people generally. who had
been led to believe that the appointment
Of receivers was in the nature of an
amicable settlement OF the long stand
ing internal tTOuUies OF the SeabOaTd.
Z. Randolph Williams, another
brother o. John SHELTON Williams. In the
absence Of that gentleman IN New
York, tonight gave GU the following
statement as the probable policy of his
brothers regarding the Untermyer at
tick:

brother may pursue, but Il Is my opiD
ion that he viii not respond to the
statement appearing in the papers this
morning under a Philadelphia date line.
and signed Samuel Untermyer. ! am
unwilling TO attempt to outline what the
position Of my brother Will be.
4 think, however, it would be the
best policy, IN view of the circum-
stances attendant upon the appointment
OF receivers for the Seaboard Air Line,
a g-Fr- ill
ment made by my brother was pre-
pared with sufficient forethought TO
make him rest assured that he had said
simply what should have been said Ia
view OF the rumOrs current that he
would seize upon an opportunity TO
again attack the Ryau-Blair interests
in the property"
In his statement replying to Mr.. VIII
Jams, Mr. Untmyer said in part:
IN view OF past experiences one
SHOULD not be surprised at anything Mr..
Williams may say. The facts are very
different from what might be inferred
from his statement After the directors
mad endeaVOred 20 further finance the
property on condition that Mr.. WI
hams and his associates would assist
TO very limited extent and they had
refused, the directors reluctantly con-
Sluded that a receivership could no
longer be avoided
During all this time Mr.. Williams
confined his activities TO abusing. Criti-

who were trying to solve and develop

whose course viii in the end be vlndi-
