ERorts to ReIease Her.

New York, Feb. lin Liverpool in
August, 1889, after trial Of just one
week, Mrs. Florence Elizabeth Maybrick
was conviced of murder in the first degree
and was sentenced to death by Justice
stephen.
She was charged with the wilful murder
by arsenic Of her husband, James May
brick, a cotton broker in that city. A
fortnight later it was announced that the
sentence had been commuted to penal
servitude for life
Mrs. Maybrick was a young American
of respectable family, when at about the
age Of eighteen she was married to the
cotton merchant, AZ years old. They had
two children. They lived in Liverpool.
Maybrick had formerly lived in Nor
folk. He contracted chills and fever
there and had used arsenic either as a
medicine, stimulant or both. Mrs. May
bricks physician, Dr. Hopper of Liver
pool, said that Maybrick was hypochon-
drical and given to trying remedies ad-
vised by friends and to doubling doses
prescribed by the doctor if they did not,
in his imagination, have the desired eff
feet Maybrick died on May IL. Things
had happened during his illness which had
aroused suspicious.
From the time that Justice Stephen
condemned her to death and the mob on
the streets Kissed and hooted the judge
and jury, and the monster petitions from
the people forced from the home secretary
Communication of her sentence, Mrs. May
bricks sympathizers have kept up their
efforts to secure her release.
In 1891 Gail Hamilton made most
able resume of the whole case and based
upon powerful appeal to the people Of
both England and America Through her
cousin, James G. Blaine, at that time sec
retary of state, everything that America
could do to bring about the release Of
Mrs. Maybrick was done.

END NOT IN SIGHT
Beers Are Not Likely to Listen to
Proposals for Peace.
THE FEELING is MUCH TOO BITTER
1t IL Figured That Kitchener Need,
the Reinforcement of 3O,-
900 Men.

New York. Feb. ia dispatch to the
Tribune from London says:
The dispatch which was issued yester-
day by the war office goes long way to
prove that the big reinforcement of 80, 900
mounted men now under orders for the
Cape is really essential to the fulflment
of Kitchener's task. An engagement in
which the attacking force numbers 1000
Beers and which results In at least TWEEN
ty-four men being killed, cannot be con-
sidered mere guerrilla action.
Nobody nowadays affects to believe that
the South African campaign is virtually
over, and it is quite evident a general sur
render of the Boer forces is not likely
to take place for some time. The Beers
everywhere seem to be displaying in
creased audacity, and peace proposals are
not likely to meet with a cordial recep-
tion as long as the present bitter feeling
between the Beers and the Britons in
South Africa lasts.

TAN REDUCTION sQUABBLE
Tawney Objects to a Conference on
the Bill.

Washington, Feb. 11.-Mr. Payne, chair
man of the committee on ways and means,
reported back the war revenue measure
as amended by the senate and moved the
adoption of a resolution by the house Ito
disagree to the substitute proposed by
the senate as an amendment thereto and
ask for a conference.
Mr.. Tawney (Minn.) a member of the
ways and means committee, asked for
separate vote on disagreement and the
request for conference. The house,
without division, voted to disagree to the
substitute
Then Mr.. Tawney insisted under the
constitution the senate had no power to
originate revenue legislation, and the
house could not ask for a conference on
a measure originating in the upper house.
Mr.. Tawney spoke in impassioned tones.
and his words brought several republicans
to their feet
The speaker overruled Mr.. Tawney's
point of order that the house could not
constitutionally consider the senates
amendments to the revenue reduction
bill.
The motion to request conference of
the senate on the war revenue reduction
act was agreed to 233 to 38.

not be continually interrupted by calls of

President Says the Appointments
viii Not Be ADpOrtiOned
Among the States.

Washington, Feb IL. - The statue
of Father Marquette in statuary
hall in the capitol is again be-
coming the subject Of congressional dis
cussion. The statue was rendered to the
government by the state of Wisconsin, but
though it had been in the hall of the capi-
tol for several years, it has never been
formally accepted by the government
Last week a resolution was introduced in
the house 10 have the government ac-
cept il.
The recent discovery of a supposed por-
trait of the missionary explorer shows
him with smooth face, while the statue
represents man with a full beard. Upon
this circumstance is based the assertion
that the statue is not an authentic pre-
sentiment OF Father Marquette's form and
features and that it ought not be ac-
cepted.
A further question has been raised as to
the propriety of accepting the statue on
the ground that Father Marquette was not
a citizen OF the Unied States, as were all
the other men whose efigies have been
presented by various states.
Senator Kyle was one of the callers at
the White House to-day to find out about
army appointments. He was told by the
president that there would be no distribu-
tiOn Of patronage in the army by states
as such, resulting in each securing a pro-
rata share OF the commissions The
president made the positive statement
that the men now serving in the Philip
pines would be given the first chance for
re-appointment regardless of state lines.
After them will come the veterans of the
Spanish war, who want to re-enter the
army, and then the appointments from
civil life. All applicants will have to pass
a rigid mental and physical examination.
Senator Kyle has selected several Spanis
war veterans for recommendation, but he

continually to bear in mind that the
room was dimly lighted by two gas jets
suspended above the billiard table in use
at the time. That end OF the room, he
observed, must have been well illumi
mated. 1t was light enough to play bill
liards and it was by that table that both
men came together.
The defense IS making the most Of this
point that no one saw a blow struck.
Each witness is questioned carefully as
to that.
Another Plan of the Defense.
During the examination of Bennett, the
ST. Louis travelling man, the defense again
showed it's hand. 1t is bringing every ef-
fort to bear to show that there was a
general mix-up in the room. Bennett tes-
titled that there were between fifteen and
twenty people there when the trouble was
on. He declared that every one was
rushing wildly about. and that there
was a promiscuous use of profanity by all
parties concerned.
important witness ABSENT
The examination of Bennett brought out
the rather sensational statement that A.
M. Barbe, the other st. Louis drummer
who figures in the case, had declined to
respond to a subpoena. Barbe was the
first one to succor Day when he fell. He
testified at the inquest that Day had fallen
into his arms. His testimony was of
great significance in its bearing on the
contention Of the defense that there was
a free-for-al scrimmage. At the inquest
Mr.. Barbe declared that there were about
twenty men in the room and that they
were closely huddled together"
Barbe, it appears. coolly ignored the
subpoena mailed him by former County
Attorney Reed. He has written that he
would have nothing more to do with the
case unless expense money was sent him
in advance.
Mr.. Nye, for the defense, said it was a
great surprise to the defense. which had
confidently counted on Barbe's attend
ance. IN addressing the court he said
