Mr.. Matthews and the Maybrick Case.
Edmund Yates in New York Tribune.
Few people are probably aware of the amount
of labor bestowed by Mr.. Matthews on the May
brick case before he decided to advise to COM
mute the sentence. From the first the home
secretary entertained a strong feeling Of the
guilt of the accused, and the scientific investi-
cations he made subsequently all tended to
confirm the impression. He was, however,
handicapped by the inexplicable weakness of
Justice Stephen, who certainly lost that foren-
sic strength with which his colleagues Of the
bench and bar credited him. The judge reso-
lutely declined to express his personal opinion
OF the merits OF the case and cOntented himself
with repeating over and over again his sum-
ming up. TWAS fair under these circumstances
that Lord Halsbury should be called in, and
, the solution ultimately adopted was wholly
based on the chancellor's belief that although
the administration Of arsenic was fully proved
there was scintilla of doubt as to its being the
cause Of the death. Strong representations
were made to the home secretary that detailed
explanation Of the reasons for the decision
arrived at be made to parliament, but Mr..
Matthews declined to create precedent

President Arnoux of the New York state
bar association has announced the names

sists of sixty members taken from the
association from different parts of the
state. Judge Armour reports that he
has received notice from many other
bar associations and legal organizations in this
'and other states signifying their intention to
attend celebration, which bids fair to be one of
the great events in judicial and legal history.
The celebration will take place in New York on
