THE MAYBRICK CASE.
London, August 9. Later news of the Maybricfc case shows that although Sir J, Stephens’s summing up was favorable in the first pbrtidu, the conclusion wap decidedly adverse, Fueling is so strong'in Liverpool that it was deemed advisable to afford Sir J. Stephens police protection. He is now guarded by 150 police. Mrs May brick attributes the verdict to the Judge’s strictures on her fidelity. Petitions in favor of a reprieve have been extensively signed and include the signatures of the leading barristers and merchants of Liverpool, The petitions have been forwarded to the House of Commons. The petitioners made a strong point of the divergence in the medical evidence. Mr Matthews stated in the House of Commons that the petitions would receive full considerstion. He remarked upon the outrage to Sir J. Stephens, and said that it was un-English to mob a Judge for doing his duty. The remark was loudly cheered.
