conclusion is Numerically opposite to his former
view Several members pointed out that his new
theory was asserted by him with as much de-

Koct's address in the following terms:

his statement of the case. He declared

that Rinkard, prior to the killing. had been

MAVERICK STORY DENIED.
British Home once Has Taken No Ac-
ton Regarding Alleged Pardon.

LONDON, Feb. 1.-THE officials of the
Home Office say there is no foundation
whatever for the report that Mrs. Florence
Maybrick has been pardoned. An official of
the United States embassy said: 1T did
not need the Home Office denial to prove
the absolute baselessness of the Maybrick
story. We will be the first to be notified
of any such action or proposed acton by
the British government. Not a single fact
has arisen to give the slightest justification
of the story or to make the release of Mrs.
Maybrick more probable than heretofore
An official of the Home Office said the
pardoning story was on a par with the re-
cent epidemic of fakes" published in the
United States, among them being the state
ments that King Edward is suffering from
cancer, that there was friction between
Lord Salisbury and King Edward and that
Gen. Sir Evelyn Wood was going TO South
Africa as a peace commissioners, etc. The
Maybrick report was circulated freely here
Sunday morning, and Mr. Choate, the
United States ambassador, told its authors
last night that II was untrue. But this
evidently had no weight with them. and
when 1t was published nothing remained
until the Home Office made up its mind to
break through tradition and give the
quietus to this utterly baseless report.
