Convicted increases here. and her friends
are doing everything in their power 10
s.-1ro her release There is no doubt
chat Congress Will adopt Senator Calrs
.,.rt resolution, which will have the effect
~ demanding Intervention by our govern
,ent with the British authorities in her
l.hall TO IS the belief now that what
ever action IS taken TO secure the release
~ Airs Maybrlck. that Ambassador
rasard viii be ignored and a special
envoy VIII be sent TO London TO present
tte wishes OF this government i'm the
fortunate lady's behalf. 1t IS quite
notable in the correspondence sent TO the
House by the President on the subject,
f- response to the resolution Of that body,
calling for an information I'm possession
. tho state Department. that the tele-
grams of Secretary Blaine to Ambassa-
.ar Lincoln regarding the pardon OF
Mrs. Maybrick. and Of Secretary Foster
b., Minister White. were all I'm the form
Of requests, which were promptly acted
uron ly our representatives then in Lon

On the other hand, the dispatches OF
Secretary Olney to Minister Bayard were
Imperative, and requiring the latter 10
e.. the Home Secretary "as soon as prac-
deal and make every effort TO secure
an carly denomination Of the case" In
another telegram Secretary Olney refers
fo an autograph letter shown him. which
was undoubtedly from the Lord Chief
Justice Of England I'm which that dis
rncuishel gentleman said "a new, formal,
and pressing representation Of the case
D.. Sir Bayard would be useful"
Notwithstanding all this, our Ambas-
.IIor never interested himself In the
nlys behalf further than to refer to II
AT dinner given by the Duke of Leeds.
"a year or more ago Dr. Sunderland. OF
thIs city IS deeply interested, and so Is
Or. Talmage. The former will see
frs President and Mrs Cleveland for
Nr. Maybrck and the latter viii preach
a sermon on her case.
