In Behalf of 1er.D:;uSllte ter.

London, May 3O.-Baroness Roqucs,
the mother of Mrs. Maybrick, now under
&C ing a sentence of imprisonment for life
upon conviction of having poisoned her
husband, has sent letter to the news
papers. accompanied by a pamphlet
which is said to give the latest evidence
collected in favor of the prisoner. The
baroness appeals as an American and as
a mother for the assistance of the press
in securing justice for Mrs. Maybrick.
The baroness says that she understands
that the refusal of the home Office to
reopen the Maybrick case is due to the
fact that the authorities are in posses
sion of secret adverse evidence, but the
baroness adds, she is certain that if she
was informed of the nature of this evi.
dence she would be able to refute it.
