The case had several aspects for the

wanted the alimony sustained but asked
the setting aside of an order by Judge
Pfleger reducing the amount from $50 TO
$50 a month.
The circuit court holds that Changed

MURDERED FOR HIS MONEY.
New Clue in the Williams Murder
in Maryland.

DOVER, Del. July 1S.-Police officials
of Queen Anne county, Md, express the
opinion that William Williams, the Mary
del farmer whose body was found hang
ing to a tree last Tuesday, was murdered
for his money. as he was known to carry
anywhere from $40 to $50 with him at
all times. Thomas Williams, son OF
the dead man. today reiterated his state
ment made at the cemetery after the flu
neral Of his father. that he wanted a
full investigation made of the affair. and
would insist upon the authorities doing
this. Also. that he would offer liberal
reward for the perpetrator of the murder.
The authorities are frank in stating
that the Walls family are entirely elimi-
mated from any suspicion in the death of
Williams. The reason the Wall family
have been closely questioned is because
OF Williams frequent visits to the farm
and the apparent affection for their
daughter.

HAZEL DREW'S MURDER
POLICE SEEK DENTIST WHO
ASKED VICTIM TO MARRY HIM.

TROY, N. Y, July 1S.-The Teal Pond
murder mystery entered upon a new
phase today. Inquiries are being MADE
among thirty or forty dentists of the city
because of a statement made by the nus
band of Mrs Mira Jones of WaterVllle'
Me-, yesterday that a Troy dentist hao
asked Hazel Drew to marry him. Miss
Drew knew Mrs. Jones when she lived IN
Troy and visited her last spring at ProVl-
dence, where she then resided.
None of the dentists questioned thus far
remembers having done work for Hazel.
but Mrs. E. c. Cary. by whom Hazel was
employed until a few days before her
death, remembers that several weeks ago
Hazel told her that she had an appoint
nent with dentist, and asked psrmis-
sion to keep it. Hazel mentioned the den
lists name, but Mrs. Cary said today that
she does not remember who 1t was.
The appointment was for the evening,
and. thinking it a rather unusual hour to
visit a dentists office, Mrs. Cary refused
to let her 60.
Had One Love Affair.
Mrs. Cary said today that Hazel ap-
parently had had one love affair. John
Drew, the girls father. was at the cary
residence a day or two ago, with Two
detectives, who were questioning MIS-
Cary. She had told them that so far
as she knew Hazel had had no admirers
and that during the girls stay at her
h house 'n she had had no callers. when the
girls father interrupted to say tnat Hazei
had been engaged to one man. whose
name he did not mention. but tnat the
man married some other girl.
since that time, Mr.. Drew said. Hazel
had had very little to do with men.
Mrs Drew, the girls mother. said: :,
Hazel, to my knowledge. has not mao
a beau for more than year: asked
her recently Haven't got a fellow yet.
Hazel? and she replied: Mo-, don't
care for one. If 1 got one some other
girl would cut me out Hazel then re-
ferred to her last love affair with man
who stopped calling on her when sne
las. spring and married another girl.
