DAN O'HARA MET
 NATURAL DEATH
Autopsy by Whelan Causes Release of George
 .COlitZOs

At the autopsy held over the body yesterday morning, 1t was decided by City Physician Charles Whelan that OHara met his death from natural causes and that violence was in no way responsible for it.
 George Colitzos, proprietor of a small Greek lunch counter near the corner of Twenty-second street and Second avenue, who had been arrested in connection with oHaras death was released from jail yesterday and the charge of mur- der against him was withdrawn.
 The statement of several men who were standing on the outside of the restau- rant is to the effect that OHara went into the lunch room after work on Wednesday evening. There was a man sitting at the same table with O'Hara, when suddenly O'Hara fell forward onto the table. All efforts of the Greeks to arouse him failed and thinking he had tainted Coitizos took him out the front door. O'Hara fell on his face and it was first thought that he had broken his neck by the fail. The Lige Loy ann bulance was called and started to take him to the Hilman hospital, but at the corner of Twentieth street and Avenue C it was discovered that O'Hara was dead He was then taken to the Loy morgue on Third avenue.
 At the Autopsy yesterday morning pr. Whelan said that O'Hara died from heart disease and that his neck was not broken. The body is being held the morgue pending instructions from some distant relatives of the dead man. It Is ex- pected that the boilermakers' union will take charge of the body. as OHara was a member of the union.
