and to-day an operation was performed on
him. 1t is a most remarkable case. Although
his body has been almost completely par
alyxed ever since the shooting. and he has
been spoken of as the man with live head
on a dead body" he has fingered for more
than light weeks, and seems to be no nearer
death now than he was the day after the
shooting. To-day the patient was placed
under the influence of chloroform and an
incislon about three inches long was made
down to the vertebra over the course of the
wound, which was found to be entirely
healed. On cutting down upon the spine it
was found that the spinous process of the
fourth cervlcal vertebr8 was fractured,
and had been driven against the spinal
cord, which it was pressing upon and had
lacerated to the extent of three-fou-ths of
an inch. The spinous process and lamln8
were removed. and the pressure was thus
taken from offthe cord. 1t was found that the
ball. after striking the fourth cervical ver-
tebr8, had glanced off, but in what direc-
ton could not be seen. It's present loca-

Judge Stephens Protests.

LIVERPOOL, Aug. 9-The memorial to the
government, asking that Mrs. Maybrick be
reprieved on the ground of the conflicting
nature of the medical evidence given at
her trial, has been signed by 500 brokers
and merchants of Liverpool. Judge
Stephens to-day protested in court against
the abusive letters addressed to the jury in
the Maybrick case. He said he thought
they had conscientiously done their duty.

8 NEW YORK, Aug. 9.-Roe &, Macklin,
counsel for Mrs. May brick in this country,
have cabled her London solicitors, asking
if Home Secretary Matthews will consider
new evidence if furnished Immediately.
Mr.. Macklin says they have considerable
evidence to submit corroborating Mrs. May
bricks testimony, and also testimony as to
her standing and character socially in this
country. He thinks that If this testimony
were admitted and considered it would
change the aspect of the case to her favor.
He exhibited this afternoon photo of Mrs.
Maybrick taken at the age of twenty years,
showing girl handsome In face and figure,
with brown hair and large, expressive eyes.
"ever since she was twelve years old.
She was a sensible. high-minded girl.
In 1882 / accompanied her and her
mother to the steamer Celtic when they
nell and Mt. Maybrlck both sailed on thst
vessel, and it was on this voyage that Mrs.
Maybrick first met her husband. 1t seems
a strange coincidence that Sir Charles Rus
sell should have been counsel in both Par
nelIs and Mrs Maybrick's cases."
Regarding the chances of interference
with the sentence on the part of the Home
Secretary, Mr.. Maeklin said: 'They have o
curious law in England, providing that
where an adverse decision is rendered in
any but murder case an appeal can be
taken to higher court, and from that to
the House of Lords; but when the case is
murder, the decision rendered by the jury
is final; and the cases where the judges
sentence has been Overruled by the Home
Secretary are very rare, indeed. Still.
hope we can do something"
Mr.. Macklin says the case is strangely
similar to the Witter poisoning case, tried
in Denver two years ago, with a verdict of
acquittal He has telegraphed for the rec
ord of that trial.

Appeal for Mrs. Maybrick's Reprieve.
LONDON, Aug. 9.-In addition to the me-
mortal to the government in behalf of Mrs.
May brick. which has been signed by most
of the barristers end solicitors of the
Liverpool circuit, and the petition which
has been circulated among the merchants
and brokers, Parliament itself has taken
up the cause Of the condemned woman. A
number of members of the House of Com
mons have decided to make combined
appeal to the Home Office for her reprieve.
Their action is based not only on the con-
fusion in the medical testimony taken, but
also on the peculiar behavior of the judge,
which has excited ferment of indigna-
ton throughout the country. The foreman
of the jury has been interviewed con-
oerning the verdict which he and his

comments on the case, to be possessed of

testimony. He admitted that he would not
be sorry if g reprieve were granted, not
withstanding his voice in favor of the ver-

left by the interview is that the jurors al

by the grossly One-sided summing up of the
judge, and that they gave hasty verdict.
