Baltimore, January IS The trial q
one of the most remarkable cases in the
criminal annals of Maryland was begun
and concluded in the criminal court la
day. The defendant was a woman wht
was indicted IN the Charles county court
as an accessory to the murder of heI
husband. The most damaging testjmo
ny against the woman WAS expected t.
come from IA man who was convicted OF
the murder and on whom the death sen
tence had been passed.
In confession made the day follow
ing his conviction and sentence to death
for the murder of James j Irwin,
George Matthews declared that he haC
beer inclted to the C -ime by Mrs. Emm,
Irwin, and together they had planned
and executed it. 1t was believed that
his testimony, aloug with circumstan-
tial evidence from other quarters, might
bring the death sentence down on the
widow of the Murdered NAV. But when
Matthews was put on the stand to-day
he refused TO testify against her or even
to be sworn IN the case.
After Matthews had refused to testify
the state closed its case. The defense
did not even give any evidence aud the
case was given to the jury without ar,
eument. Without leaving their seats
the jurors found and gave in their yer
diet of not guilty.

We suppose very few of the members
who voted for Mr.. Penrose Yesterday
realize the enormity of their offense. 1t
is a fact that this state was never before
compelled to suffer greater public
degradation. Mr.. Penrose was chosen
not because of his towering ability, his
extraordinary experience nor his exten-
sive popularity. From no part of the

was made senate rsolely because Senator
Quay wants his social companionship
and his political mediocrity with him
at Washington.
1t is we'll understood that Senator
Penrose will bring no credit to those
who elected him. 1t is we'll known that
his party must suffer in public estima.
