RETURNS TO OHIO
WITHOUT PAPERS
Harry A. Smith Leaves for Gin
cinnati, and Ends Much
Involved Case.

Deciding that further fight against
extradition would be useless. Harry A.
Smith, twcnty-three years old. wanted
in Cincinnati on a charge Of desert
ing his wife and child. and suspected
Of being n bigamist. consented yester-
day afternoon to return to Cincinnati
without extradition papers. and. In Gus
tody OF Detective James T. Allen. OF
the Cincinnati police force, left for
that city at GAO o'clock yesterday at
tcrnoon.
This ends the case. SO far as the
Richmond authorities are concerned. 1t
has tangled up three States and caused
the local police endless trouble In de-
termining what disposition could be
made OF n prisoner who Is alleged to
have committed crimes in Ohio. Viz
GINA and North Carolina. Smith was
tried in Police Court yesterday morn
plainant being alleged wife No. 2 Mrs.
Rosamond Wright Smith. whom Smith
Is said to have married In Durham n.
c. last February. 1t was subter-
fuec, the police believe. so to confuse
the case that the authorities would not
know how to solve the matter. The
case was dismissed, after wrangle
between Justice Crutchfield and Com
monwealth's Attorney Folkes on one
side. and Attorney C. T. Morris. rep
resenting the prisoner. on the other.
Mr.. Folkes asserted that even though
the prisoner admitted he was big
amist he could not be convicted here,
under the law, without direct testi-
mony that he had been married to the
woman In Cincinnati. That would in
volve the State in heavy expense. and
he explained that the local authori-
ties had promised to turn the. prisoner
over to the authorities Of Ohio. where
the charge of desertion and nonsup-
port is a felony punishable by term
in the penitentiary.
Mr.. Morris argued that the hearing
should have been had before n South
Richmond magistrate, but was quickly
quieted on that score when Justice
Crutchield Informed him shortly that
he had jurisdiction over all and any
part of Richmond.
Mrs. Wright, mother OF alleged wife
No. 2. explained that the charge Of
bigamy was brought in the interest
Of her daughter, because, she said. she
had learned that Smith had not legally
been married to the woman in Cincin-
natl. The local authorities are glad
that the involved case Is ended.
