llllS MAYBRICK’S CASE
The Movement for American Inter-
ference in Her Behalf.
BELIEF IN HER. INNOGENGE.
hail Hamilton, Mrs. Blaine, Colonel Daw-
son and Others Active in an Endeavor to
Obtain Justice for the Condemned.
Some Newly Discovered Evidence.
NEW YORK, Oct. 9.—The revival of the
interest in the Maybrick case in England
and America seems to be increasing in all
directions. Gail Hamilton’s recent review
of the case, ‘ Mrs. Blaine’s active sym-
' pnthy, together with the exhaustive anal-
ysis of the case by Mr. Macdougall, a dis-
‘tiuguished legal authority in Londbn, and
the publication of a volume from his pen
on the subject. in connection with the
‘ proposed petition to our government to
intercede, make the case one of the most
extraordinary on record.
' Until recently, far more interest has
been awakened in
England by the
trial than in this
country; but now " ‘
many distinguish- .
ed women, inspir- "5
ed by Gail Hamil- ,1?)
ton, are exerting
themselves to ob-
tain justice for
M r s . Maybrick.
Some of the,”
strongest points "
made are thati, ‘
M r s . Maybrick _
did not have a . ,3
fair trial by jury; ,
that the judge be- '
fore -whom the
case was tried was MRS. MAYBRICK.
of unsound mind and has since been legal-
ly declared insane; that if she was guilty
she should have been hanged; that if she
was not guilty her sentence should not
have been commuted by the crown; that
she is now in prison for a crime for which
she was not indicted or tried.
After the trial the home secretary sub-
mitted to the queen his legal opinion as to
the merits of the case. He decided that
there was no evidence that the prisoner’s
husband had been poisoned, and the sen—
tence was commuted from death to im-
prisonment for life on the ground that
there was evidence that she might have
attempted to poison him, and an attempt
to poison is a crime in England for which
imprisonment for life is the penalty.
Mrs. Maybrick is a native of Mobile.
Colonel Andrew H. H. Dawson, formerly
assistant district attorney and now prac-
:'.'-'-‘
v
, ticing law in this city, is a friend of her
family, the Chandlers, and knew the un-
fortunate-woman’s parents when she was
a child. A reporter called on the colOnel
in his ofice in the Stewart building for
some facts about her history and trial.
Colonel Dawson's Argument.
“I am glad that you have come to see
me,” ebegan Colonel Dawson. “Ameri-
~ cans seem ‘to forget. the exemplary charac—
ter of the lady and the injustice shown her
during that long and fearful trial in Liv-
erpool for. the alleged poisoning of her
husband. I am in correspondence with
the Baroness do Roques, Mrs. Maybrick’s
mother, and I have the facts which have
not yet appeared in print and were not
brought out on the trial. The great trou-
ble in the whole matter has been the sim-
ple fact that the prisoner was suspected
and charged with infidelity to her hus-
band, and that is the reason no more has
been done for her. Now that it can be
proved that this suspicion is groundless
and the charge false, the time has come for
Americans of energy and influence to act.
“I am prepared to prove that Mrs. May-
brick was drugged twenty-four hours be«
fore her husband’s death and kept in that
condition for twenty-four hours afterward.
I can prove that her enemies have admitted
that they had forged letters purporting to
emanate from her, and that the forgeries
were so ex’pertly executed that they de-
ceived her friends familiar with her chi-
. rography, to whom they were written. I
can prOve that the celebrated letter to
Brierly was a forgery, not only in its
date, but in its terms of endearment, and
that every reference in it which owns
construed to furnish evidence of her
improper intimacy with. him had no
reference to anything of the kind,
but that it properly belonged to another
matter about which she had acted unwisew
ly and impulsively, and had had his as-
sistance in so doing, for the purpose of ob-
taining from her husband a legal separa-
tion on the ground she supposed to be
good, but upon discovery that they were
not, because the discovery that she
thought she had made of her husband’s
infidelity turned out to be. in fact, letters
written to him about his relations with
another woman before he was married;
and when he explained all this to her she
at once saw that in seeking counsel before
she had had an interview with him she
was guilty of a" ‘fearful wrong’ to him
and so admitted. .
An Evidence of Her Truthfuluoss.
“I am in earnest in my attempts to as-
sist in securing justice foers. Maybrick.
She is a countrywoman of mine, with
,of them having been a. justice of the su-
preme court of the United States—John
A. Cempbe l, and another having been one
of the ables lavvyers in Alabama—Daniel
Chandler, the brother-in-law and former
law partner of. Judge Campbell. ‘ I trust
that all true Americans, and Then every-
where, vVill respond to Gail Hamilton’s ap-
peal for financial aid.” ,
0n the trial in Liverpool, Mrs. May-
brick stated that she had been in the habit
of using a preparation of arsenic as a sim-
ple face wash. She said it. was an ordinary
prescription filled by a New York druggist,
and she was sure the prescription paper was
somewhere among her effects if it had not
been destroyed. A search was made for
‘many days, but the paper could not be
found. Great stress was laid upon the ab-
sence of this paper in the speeches before
the court, and-win the end the very fact of
the nonappearance of the paper was held
as corroborative evidence of her untruth—
fulness and guilt. '
After the case had ended and the wom-
-' an had gone to prison,lshe still insisted
with great vehemen'ce that such a prescrip-
tion. had been1 in existence. A fresh search
was made by her "mother, but. withOut
avail,-.until at last by chance it was dis-
covered: between the-leaves of the family
' Bible, thus proving the truth of her state-
ment during the trial. .

THE BELMONT MANSION GUTTED.
The ll‘nniily and Servants Have 3 Nut-
i-ow Escape from Death.
NEW YORK, Oct. 9.—Fire destroyed the
four-story brownstone mansion at 101
Fifth avenue, occupied by Mr. and Mrs.
August Belmont. Mr. Belmont was not
at home, but his wife’, two'children. and a
number'of servant-s had narrow escapes
from death. The fire started 5011 the first
floor of the building from no apparent
cause. No sooner had the flames gOt under
headway than Mrs. Belmont and her elder
child rushed from the building 'flst in
time to escape the flame-that swept through
the hall when the street door-was opened.
She explained to the firemen that her
nurse Maria and the younger Belmont
were on the second floor unable to get
out. Ladders were run up- to the front
windows, but the firemen could see noth-
ing of them and they were almost given
up for lost. At last the nurse and young
son were seen at a rear window, and the
firemen, shifting the ladders, quickly
brought them to the street uninjured.
Another of the servants, Allie Grain,
was rescued by Firemen Sullivan. The
girl had climbed out 'on the window sill
of the third floor window and was hung-
ing by her hands screaming for help.
Sullivan seeing her d’anger seized a scal-
ing ladder and quickly-mounting caught
the girl just in time, and with his bur-
den in his right arm landed her safely.
The building, which was filled with
costly tapestries and furniture, was com-
pletely gutted, and the loss, which is prob-
ably much more than $200,000, cannot be
estimated until Mr. Belmont is seen.
GOV. CADIPBELL T0 SUE FOR LIBEL.
_He \Vill Proceed Against the Cincinnati
Commercial Gazette and Other Papers.
COLUMBUS, 0., Oct. 9.—Governor Camps
bell has ordered his attorneys in Cincin-
nati to prepare a petition in libel against
The Commercial Gazette for republishing
articles from the New York Recorder
charging him with having for years specu-
lated and lost heavily in Wall street, as-
serting that he had borrowed heavily from
prominent politicians, including Grover
Cleveland, anfi stating that his total in-
debtedness was over half a million.
His attorneys were also ordered to pre-
pare aflidavits for the arrest of the manag-
ing editor or other proper person. There
is not one word of truth in the publica-
tion, the governor says. Governor Camp-
bell also sent telegrams to New York, De-
troit and Philadelphia » instructing- his
lawyers to demand from papers in those
cities the name of their correspondent
sending the libellous matter they printed,
and on their refusal to bring suit.
The action against the Cincinnati Com-
mercial Gazette was taken because that
journal refused to retract, making the
claim editorially that it had only reprinted
what the New York Recorder had uttered,
and therefore had nothing to take back.
Thirty Persons Injured.
KANSAS CITY, Oct. 9.—The carnival of
the “Priests of Pallas,” which began last
night with a procession of illuminated
floats, was marred by a sad accident. A
Tenth street cable car became unmanage-
able and crashed through the crowd, in«
juring thirty persons. The principal vico
tims are Sergeant George Burnett, First
cavalry, from Fort Leavenworth, left side
crushed and is in dangerous condition;
James Marshall, fracture of the skull, fa-
tally injured; Sergeant Woolen, First cav-
airy, right leg broken; Private Lewis,
same troop, fracture of the shoulder; Cor-
poral Edward Nolan, same troop, serious
internal injuries; Mrs. Pierce, right, arm
broken. Twenty others were more or less
seriously injured.
Disastrous nnd Fatal Smashup.
’BINGHAMTON, N. Y., Oct. 9.-The second
section of freight train No. 33, east bound
on the Albany and Susquehanna railroad,
jumped the track at a sharp curve at
Dye’s Switch, twelve miles east of here,
and fifty-five cars were wrecked. Engineer
James Patterson, of Oneonta, was crushed
to death. Joseph Lynch, of this city, a
brakeman, and Fireman George Powers,
Of Oneonta, jumped, and each had a leg
broken and sustained other painful in-
juries. Both tracks were blocked by the
wreckage for two hours. The loss will
foot up about $150,000.
A Horrible Sight.
EAU CLAIRE, \Vis., Oct. 9,—Christian
Bergham, who was employed by Mr.
Decker, a banker, to watch some timber,
charged some of his neighbors with steal-
ing the timber. After the trial of the sup-
posed thieves somebody made threats,
which caused Bergham to diappear. This
was last June. Yesterday his body was
found only two miles from home. He had
gone to a ledge Of rock, tied a rope to a
tree and around his neck and jumped ofl.
When found only the head and shoulders
were hanging, the body lying at the foot
of the cliff.

HICKMAN, Ky., Oct. 9,—Governor Buch-
anan, of Tennessee, has commuted to life‘
