New York, Aug. 24.-Mrs. Florence
c. Maybrick, recently released from
prison in England, who arrived in New
York from Antwerp on the steamer
Vaderland, travelled under the name
of Mrs. Rose Ingraham, and was ac-
companied by Mr.. and Mrs. Samuel v.
Hayden, Mr.. Hayden being her attor-
ney.
The immigration authorities made no
attempt to question Mrs. Maybrick, and
the customs officers did all in their
power to expedite the taking of her
declaration and the paSsing of her bag
gage. Deputy Surveyor Bishop had met
the ship down the bay and took charge
of things, and a special inspector was
detailed to examine her baggage in her
stateroom.
She left the pier on the arm of Mr..
Hayden. What the curious crowd saw
was a slight, short woman, with thin,
worn face and a mass of brown hair.
The simple gown of a small black and
white pattern of silk fitted her closely,

IN her costume was heliotrope ribbon
and flower of the same hue as her
hat. She was unveiled, and smiled at
the staring crowd. During the voyage
across Mrs. Maybrick appeared a few
times at meals and in the cabin. but
remained most of the time in her cabin.
She was met at the dock by a few close
friends, and was driven directly TO a
hotel, and after a brief rest will make
a trip to the Catskills before her con-
templated journey south.
Mr. Hayden acknowledged that Mrs.
Maybrick was about to proceed in her
suit for lands in Virginia and other
states, which are said to be valuable,
but declined to refer to the answer to |
the suit in which it is alleged that Mrs
Maybrick has no claim to the property,
and that the bringing of the suit was a |
trick to hasten the woman's release.
Mrs. Maybrick refused to be inter
viewed, but gave out the following !
statement:
y Il regret that the state Of my health |

my talking to my friends of the Amer

chioago's Mayor Tells
Judge Parker Illinois
May Go Democratic
on Imperialism
Issue.

NEW YORK, Oct. 13, 1904.-Judge
Parker had Mayor Carter Harrison, of
Chicago, at the Hotel Seville yesterday.
They discussed the situation in Illinois,
Indiana and Wisconsin.
Il came here to deliver the electoral
vote of Illinois, Indiana and Wisconsin
to Judge Parker Mayor Harrison said
joeularly. And if that is not big
enough task I'll throw in the electoral
vote of Iowa for good measure.
Seriously speaking, though, feel con-
fident that we will be able to carry Ill
inois for Judge Parker next month.
No complete canvass has been made of
the State as yet, but thorough canvass
of Cook County has been completed.
This County will be Democratic and will
roll up big majority for Judge Parker.
"Illinois is normally Republican, but
we have good chance to carry it.. If
it is carried by the Democrats it will be
because of the German-American vote.
One-third of the voters of the State are
Germans, and considerably more than
one-third are foreign born. This foreign
vote is opposed to Imperialism. Many of
the German voters quilted the Father
land because of the imperialistic Govern
ment and viii vote against any candidate
advocating Imperialism"
Senator German was one of Judge
Parker's earliest callers yesterday. He
remained with him almost an hour.
Judge Parker spent the evening con-
ferring with the County Chairman, who
came here at the invitation of the State
Committee to talk over the situation.
Judge Parker will leave today for his
home, >RosemouAt, returning to New York
on Monday.
Among his callers yesterday we're
De Lancey Nicoll, Vice Chairman of
the National Committee; I. f. Benedict,
Public Printer under the second Cleve-
land administration; ex-Seeretary of the
Navy Hilary A. Herbert, and c. v.

party now in power has done everything
possible to discriminate against organized
labor. These men believe that they
should boycott the Republican party just
as effectively as the Republican party has
boycotted them, The laBsr vote is
mighty vote and with that on our side our
chances of our victory are materially en-
hanced
Former Senator Jones, who managed
both of Mre Bryan's campaigns, who be
cause he was away from the National
Democratic headquarters few days to-
celebrate his sixty fifth birthday in
Washington, the Republicans said he had
been ousted from the councils of the
party, is just as enthusiastic as any one
at headquarters these days and is Just
as hard at work there as any pne else. He
has been conducting "a very extended
personal correspondence with leading
Democrats in all parts of the country,
who are especially active during the two
National campaigns which were carried
on under his Craftsmanship. The result
has been gratifying. The Republican
newspapers have been industriously cir
culating the statementIthat many of the
strong and active Democrats who partic-
ipated in those campaigns were not sup
porting Judge Parker. Senator Jones
declares that these very men are now at
work in all parts of the country and are
strongly in favor of the election of Mr.
Parker
