The Dean Commission.
(Per Press Association.) Syiixky, July 2. The report of the Dean Commission has bccn'laid on the tabic; of the House. The medical members of the Commission hold that the facts were quite as compatible with the hypothesis that Mrs Dean, for reasons which can only be surmised and by methods of which she alone has cognisance, administered the arsenic to herself possibly or with the promptings of her mother and without auy intention of taking the fatal close as that poison was administered by her husband with intent to killl. The President adds tlie minority support the opinion that it is unreasonable to suppose the girl on the threshold of life would risk her existence by taking a deadly poison for the purpose of bringing a false charge against the husband. On tnis ground, he did not concur with the opinion of his colleagues.
