Queen Victoria Interests Herself in the
Case, but the Woman's Confe ssion
May Prove FataI-A Letter
Sustaining the Finding
of the Jury.
SHE WILL HANG ON AUGUST rs.

LIyERPooL, Aug. I2.-The date was to-
day fixed for the execution of Mrs
Maybrick, who was last week convicted
of poisoning her husband. She Will be
hanged on Monday, August %.
The Queen is taking considerable in
terest In Mrs. Maybrick's case. This
information comes through a clerk in
the Home office, who states in private
conversation that Her Majesty has ex-
pressed desire that the printed re-
ports of the trial, together with all
matter bearing upon the previous
history OF the condemned woman,
be forwarded to her at Osborne with
out delay. This request is un-
precedented, and although according to
precedent Her Majesty cannot move in
the case except upon the recommenda-
ton and advice of the home secretary,
1t is nevertheless taken as an indication
of the fact that she is desirous of becom-
ing acquainted with the details of the
case in all their bearings.
1t is now generally admitted that Sir
Charles Russell made a grievous error
when he allowed his unfortunate client
TO read her statement to the jury.
While the presumption of her iason
with Brierly was strong, there was no
direct evidence of it before the court
until she admitted it in her own de-
tense and claimed that she had received
forgiveness from her husband the day
prior to his death. 1t is well known
that the aged sovereign, despite the
prevalent laxity of morals among the
aristocracy at the present time, and the
fact that not few individuals of both
sexes that were formerly in high favor
at the court have figured as
principals or correspondents in
the divorce court, has very strong and
pronounced convictions ON this subject;
and the probabilities are that whatever
sympathy might have come TO the aid
of the prisoner in court circles will be
aiienated as the result of her own
statement.
Stephens is preparing long letter to
the Home office, reviewing the case
evidence from beginning to end, and
insisting that upon the facts presented
the jury would have been false to their
oaths had they returned different YER

NEW YORK, Aug. 9.-Purser Squire, of
the steamer Alvo, at the Atlas Line,
which arrived from Hayti last night,
brings Haytien news. The Alvo LETT st.
Mare l p. NJ, July 26, and arrived at
Port au Prince at s P. NJ. of the same
day. When the steamer came to anch-
or the noise of Hippolyte's cannon
could be distinctly heard, firing at
the town. The attacking force was at
the west of the place, about 'wo miles
away. With the aid of powerful glass
Purser Squire and the officers distinctly
saw Hyppolyte on the sea coast. The
United States steamer Ossipee lay in port
at Port au Prince, and near her was
anchored an English and a Spanish
man-of-war. A tug-boat named
the Panama, formerly belonging in
the United States, and of about 100
tons burden, was there too. She car
RED few heavy guns and was in
Legitime's service. During the after
noon of the 26th of July the Panama
was ordered around to where she could
attack HippOlyte's bombarding party
IN the right flank. AS soon as the little
tug got within firing distance she began
to blaze away. She kept it up until
darkness set in. The bombardlng by
HyppOlyte's forces was kept up all
night. The Alvo left next morning.
Legltlme has lost two men during the
tiercest of the fight. One was
killed instantly, the other lived
a day. Hyppolyte's losses can
be reckoned in the hundreds. it
is said. The gatliDg guns used by Hip
polyte are playing sad havoc with the
outskirts of Port au Prince. The Off
GERS on the Ossipee said to the people
on the Alya that they (the Ossipee Off
cels) had become used to the continued
firing and do not mind it bit.
