NO DECISION IN
MAXWELL CASE
States Attorney Unde.
cided on Grand Jury Ac.
ton i'm Murder Case

States Attorney Lawrence L.
Lewis told The Democrat today that
he had not yet decided whether or
not he would call for q grand jury
to consider the case against Harold
"Cider" Maxwell, 81, Of Watertown,
accused Of causing the death OF
Harry B, Watts, ~, in a fight out
side Bruneau's restaurant, on Wa
tertown avenue, on the morning Of
Feb. 26.
Should q grand Jury be sum-
inoned, 1t could return an indict-
inent charging Maxwell with first
or second degree murder, or could
refuse to make any charge against
him. The states attorney can, II he
chooses, enter manslaughter
charge against Maxwell without the
impanelling Of a grand jury.
Mr.. Lewis has had the case under
study for the past week. In a find
ing by Deputy Coroner Walter w.
6myth, Maxwell was held criminally
responsible for Watts death. Last
week In city court Maxwell waived
examination on an open charge OF
murder and was bound over to the
April criminal term Of superior
court. He is now In New Haven
county jail, awaiting trial.
The general opinion Is that no
grand jury will be called and that
q manslaughter charge will be
lodged against Maxwell at the April
term.
