TO CLEAR MRS. MAVERICK
DR.. Helen Densmore Endeavoring t
Create Sympathy for Her
A Meeting Held In Illinois Hall Last Night
Where the Case Of the American
Woman Is Discussed

DR.. Helen Densmore addressed fair
sized audience in Illinois hall last night on
the subject of the famous Maybrick case.
Her remarks were followed with apparent
interest, but the audience was irresponsive.
Mrs. Densmore is the president of the
Women's International Maybrick associa.
tion, which was formed for the purpose of
endeavoring to effect the release of, or at
least q rehearing for, the condemned
woman.
As was pointed out by the speaker, the
English law is such that there is no court of
appeal, and any unfortunate person who
is made the victim of q miscarriage of JUS
tice, as is claimed Mrs. Maybrick is, has
no hope except through the intervention of
the home secretary. When public opinion
demands a hearing in England it generally
meets with satisfactory response from the
judiciary. The object of Mrs. Densmore
is to raise funds necessary to hold public
meetings and create public sentiment in
favor of the American woman now wearing
felon's garb, and thus cause the home
secretary to grant her new trial.
Professor Bell introduced Mrs. Dens-
more, and as he happened to be acquainted
with the case, having been in England at
the time of the trial, spoke briefly regard
ing it. Mrs. Densmore spoke from notes.
She first told of the circumstances Of the
trial and pointed out some of the grossest
alleged injustices done the accused. JUS
tice Stephens was. Mrs. Densmore asserted,
weak mentally and nearly insane at the
time of the trial, as was shown by his be-
ing asked to resign several months after on
account of failing mental qualities. What
led to Mrs. Maybrick being accused of
having poisoned her husband arose from
the idle talk of servants. An unfinished
prescription made by medical man was
sent by maid to chemist, instead
of one for brand of meat juice.
The prescription was returned with
the message that it could not be filled
sent to the chemist and the unfinished one
completed and also filed. The maid told
down stairs that Mrs. Maybrick had sent
for poison and that the chemist had re-
fused to give it. This was eagerly caught
up and repeated by the servants and so
the suspicion was first started against
Mrs. Maybrick. 1t was proved at the trial
that she never had any arsenic except
some small papers for complexion pre-
paration. The physicians examined for
the defense testified that Mr.. Maybrick
had died from gastro-enteritis while the
crowns medical witnesses failed 10 prove
that arsenic had been the cause of the
mans death.
Mrs. Densmore said in conclusion that
Mrs. Maybricl1 had not been condemned
for the murder of her husband but because
public opinion supposed that she had had
lover and demanded punishment for her
moral character.

Los Angeles About to Respond With a
Liberal Gift
America ia awake to the crying needs of
suffering Armenians and Los Angeles pro-
poses to contribute literally to the fund
being raised under the auspices of the Red
Cross society. Clara Barton, whose name
and story of her life devotion to the cause
of humanity are familiar throughout the
union, has gone to Turkey to arrange for
the distribution of funds.
Already large sums of money have been
raised in great cities and arrangements
have been perfected to hold mass meet
ing in Simpsons tabernacle next Friday
night. An orchestra and vocal and liter
ary talent Of the highest order have volun-
teered their services free of charge, and
eloquent speakers, among whom is A. j.
Melchonian, a native Armenian and medi.
cal missionary, have been engaged. 1t is
hoped that 5000 tickets will be sold at 20
cents each. All has been done thus far on
a purely humanitarian basis, it being de-
sired to enlist every person regardless of
race, creed or color. Half million Ar
menians are facing famine and starvation
and every one should be ready to help.

and the news is SO v cry contradictory
almost every hour, that even the most in.
telliQent and cautious correspondents are
liable to be misled. My own opinion is
that the end of this deplorable struggle is
not far off, and it may occur almost at any
moment by q general, popular uprising in
favor of the insurgents. At any rate,
Spain is quite powerless to quell the re-
bellion, SO that even if the war is prolonged
some time longer it can but end in one
way. The suffering on both sides is be-
yond description, and is horrible to con-
template. / hope that this government
may see its way to make such strong rep
resentatlcns to the cabinet at Madrid, in
concert with the great powers, as may
result in an immediate and peaceful settle
ment.

LEXINGTON, KY, Jan. 6.-The
contest of Wood g.. Dunlap, who
was the republican candidate for
the legislature from the city of
Lexington, against Moses Kauf-
man, democrat, has progressed far
enough to warrant the opinion
that Dunlap will be seated. Kauf-
man claimed to have defeated
Dunlap by l26 votes, while Dun
lap claims that his defeat was
caused by fraud. He has secured
the affidavits of IA voters, in
which they swear that they were
not allowed to register, while, ac'
cording to law, they were entitled
so to do. Dunlap has discovered
and proved that much other fraud
was perpetrated by the democrats,
and il is said that he has made out
a remarkably strong case, so much
so that even the friends OF Mr..
Kaufman in several instances have
admitted that they believe Dunlap
will be seated. III Dunlap is seated,
it will give the republicans ma
jority in the legislature on joint
ballot.

SHAMoKIN, Pa, Jan. 6.--While
four workmen we're being let down
into new shaft of the Luke Fiddler
mine this morning the "billy"
which balances the elevator and
which weighs about one Thousand
pounds, fell upon them without
warning. They were instantly
killed their bodies being crushed 80
horribly as to make them almost
unrecognizable. The victims were !:
James Merritt. Stephen Merritt,
Patrick Lynch, Peter Roberts. All
were OF Springfield, Pa; and all
were men of family excepting
Lynch.
SHAMoKIN, Pa, Jan. 6.-Ten
men were engaged on the night
shift in sinking tho new shaft and
were hoisted to the top at A o'clock
to eat their breakfast. An hour
later the two Merits, Lynch
and Robert Stephens entered
the shaft bucket and were be-
ing lowered into the workings,
but when the bucket descended
about 500 feet Engineer Bowen
noticed a Earring Of the rope and
Immediately stopped the machin-
cry. The workmen on top found
that the bucket was no longer at
tached to the wire rope and they
rugged up another bucket and were
slowly lowered to the bottom
of the shaft where they
found the other bucket
splintered and the mangled
and bleeding remains OF their four
comrades scattered over the rocky
floor. All of the poor fellows were
dead. The shaft bucket in which
the four men met their sud-
den death was guided in it's
upward and downward jour-
ney by big cross-pieces and
arms known as the "billy,"
and weighing half a ton. The wire
rope passed through this "billy''
and it ia supposed that ice formed
on the sides OF the shaft. The
bucket passed tie ice in safety, but
the "billy" was caught by it, and
the bucket had descended several
hundred feet before the weight
caused the ice to give way and al.
low the "billy" to-fall upon the
men who we're In the bucket; it is
not thought they were aware OF
their danger.
