speed. HIS record for every ten miles OF

The Prisoner Released on
Special License.
FREED LAST MONDAY
Such is the Information Given to the
World this Morning by Lloyds
Weekly Newspaper, Which
Publishes it With Some
Detail.
(By the Associated Press.)

London, Jan. 31.-Lloyds Weekly News
paper says this morning that Mrs. Flor
ence Maybrick, the American woman who
was serving a life sentence for having
poisoned her husband, was released from
the Aylesbury Female Convict prison at
Gas O'Clock on the morning of January
25th, on special license. Her mother, the
paper says, had visited her Saturday,
January 90, and evidently was the bearer
OIL important news. The governor of the
prison on Sunday conferred with the
prison officials before the departure of
the prisoner, which was carried out very
quietly. Mrs. Maybrick, accompanied by
one of the prison matrons, entered a
closed carriage and drove to Aylesbury
Station, where she took a train for Lon
don. She drove from Euston Station, and
from there went to a private house not
far from the metropolis She will remain
there for short period in order to recup-
crate, and to await the completion OF
certain formalities, which will give her a
freedom of movement not allowed by per-
sons on ordinary ticket of leave.
Mrs. Maybrick, the paper concludes,
during the last few months in prison was
employed in the highest work as a reward
for good conduct.
Florence Maybrick, the daughter of the
late w. C. Chandler, a banker of Mobile,
Ala, was convicted at Liverpool in 1889
of having poisoned her husband, James
Maybrick, cotton broker, who lived
part of the time in Norfolk and part in
Liverpool She was sentenced to death
This sentence, however, was later COM
muted to life Imprisonment.
Many efforts have been made during
Mrs. Maybrick's Imprisonment to have
her pardoned and it was announced on
March 90, 1913, on authority of the Home
Office, that she would be released in
