(By the Associated Press.)

London, Aug 12.-The Chronicle
this morning publishes a three column
interview with Mrs. Florence May
brick, mostly concerned with her ex-
periences during her life in prisons.
The interviewer describes Mrs. May
brick as clear-witted, outspoken,
rather robust and in no way shat
tered, either physically or mentally
though her face is drawn as with gfIet
and suffering, and says that she an
swered the questions put to her frank
ly and without embarrassment or ner-
VOuSneSS.
Describing the arrangements for her
release, Mrs Maybricll said she could
never hope to repay the debt of graf
itude she owed Ambassador Choats,
| Henry White, Secretary of the Ameri-
! can embassy and other kind friends
| and she wished it known how good
| the officials Of the American embassy
| had been to her.
AS a practical recognition of the fact
that the United States Immigration
Commissioner had decided that she
would be regarded as an American
citizen, she said that Ambassador
| Choate provided a gentleman escort
for her when she left Truro.
I To the interviewer Mrs. Maybrick
protested her innocence as firmly as
she had done at the beginning and
said
II am praying for the time when my
innocence will be proved to the world"
Nothing But Kindness Shown.
She said she experienced nothing
but kindness from the prison officials
and spoke with deep gratitude of the
late Lord Chief Justice Russelrs efforts
i'm her behalf The last time she saw
Baron Russell he took her hands in
farewell and said "Be brave, be
strong. / believe you to be innocent
and shall do all | can for you"
Mrs. Maybrck declared that she
was most anxious to get to the United
States, saying: Il shall feel happier
there" She requested the interviewer
TO quote her as sending the following
message to her friends:
"To you all l give my heartfelt
thanks for your noble fight in behalf
of an innocent and defenseless wo-
man. l earnestly pray that the day is
not far distant when the proof of the
wrong that has been. done me will be
demonstrated"
Mrs Maybrick was unable to say
anything as to her plans after the law
suit which she has brought in the
United States has been settled. 81
forget and forgive and to spend my
time with kind-hearted friends"
Asked whether she would change
her name, she replied:
81 do not know l am afraid 1 shall
have little peace while / hold that of
Maybrick, but why should it be so :?
Let me die out of memory. / have suf-
fered enough, God knows. Make the
rest of my days as easy as you can

AS TO THE GOLD STANDARD.
No Interpolation Made by Judge Par.
l<er in Speech of Acceptance.
(Ry the Associated Press.


ESQpus, n. Y, Aug. 12.-Judge Par
ker made no Interpolation on the gold
standard in his speech of acceptance al
the ceremonies which occurred a
Rosemount on Wednesday. His manu-
script as given in advance to the press
was followed to the letter in SO far
as reference was made to the gold
standard telegram sent to the st.
Louis convention.
When Judge Parker's attention was
called to what purported to be his in
terpolation, he made it clear that he
had no objection to the circulation of
a story to the effect that he had en-
phasized his conviction that the gold
standard is firmly and irrevocably
Established as it had been his inten
ton to place as much emphasis upon
his position in that regard as 1T was
possible for him to do. Some indigna-
ton is felt at Rosemount, however,
at what appears to Judge Parker to
be an attempt to create the impress
sioL that he had written one speech
for national consumption and deliv-
cred another for the benefit of those
who were present to hear for them-
selves what the candidates had to say.
Hints of double dealing on the part OF
Judge Parker have aroused in him
feeling of resentment that such

slightest foundation iR fact.
1t was made plain at Rosemount
that Judge Parker will stand by his
speech as written and with the unim-
portant changes of delivery but that
he wants it understood there has not
been and will not be double dealing IN
relation to the gold standard or other
questions discussed in his speech. He
believed that the country understands
I l,a hoe n
clear that if misunderstanding does
arise he will strengthen in every way
possible the stand he has taken on
the money question. He entertains
no fear of loss of votes on that sub
iect and has declared that if such a
danger were manifestAi his position
would remain unchanged to the end.
