MRS. MAVERICK TO BE RELEASED
Announcement Made That She viii
BE Free Next Year.

Mrs. Florence Maybrick, the Ameri.
can woman who was convicted at
Liverpool in 1889 on the charge OF
poisoning her husband, James May
prick, by arsenic, and whose sentence
of death was committed to penal SER
vitude for life, will be released In
1904. The announcement comes from
the home office, which authorize her
Washington lawyers to use the fact
of her release next year as reason
for securing the postponement OF the
trial of the lawsuits bearing on the
prisoners interest in land in Ken
lucky, Virginia and West Virginia.
Mrs. Maybrick, who was Miss Flor
ence Elizabeth Chandler and a MEM
Der of a well known and prosperous
southern family, was married July q,
1881, in St James church, Piccadilly
to James Maybrick of Liverpool. She
was then IS years old, vivacious and
beautiful and a social favorite. Her
husband was "a years old. In the
spring of 1889 Mr.. Maybrick became
i'll and in a few days he died. His
brothers investigated his death and
charged Mrs. Maybrick with the MUIR
der of her husband. A long trial fol
lowed and a number of doctors swore
Mr.. Maybrick died of arsenical poison
ing. The defense proved that for 20
years Mr.. Maybrick had been con-
frmed arsenic eater and that he daily
took doses that would have killed
dozen ordinary men. Mrs. Maybrick
was eventually sentenced to death by
the JUICE, Sir Fitzjames Stephen, who
spoke for two days in charging the
jury and who said it was impossible
for them to find her guilty in the face
of the medical evidence. He died
some time later in a mad house.
Had she not been able to testify in
the suit pending in the United States,
Mrs. Maybrick and her mother would
have lost all title and interest in large
tracts of lands situated in Kentucky,
Virginia and West Virginia.

"The most important feature of the
award" he continued, lis, of course,
the increase of 10 per cent given to
the miners. This will result in an an
nual increase in the wages of 100000
anthracite miners of Pennsylvania OF

for by the commission is very salts
