MAYBRICK. (Cannot Have the Insurance on Her Husband's Life Because She Killed Him. Loxnox, July 20.—Judgment was given to- day in the action bronght in the interest of Mrs. Maybrick against an insurance association to recover the sum of $10,000 insurance upon her husband's life. The court decided that Mra. Maybrick had murdered her husband, and that, consequently, she could not recover the amount for which his life was insured, as his ith was caused by the person for whose ben- efit the action was brought. Mrs. Maybriek, it will be recalled, is th American woman who a few years ago was ar- on the charge of poisoning her husband, who was a well-known Liverpool cotton mer- chant. The trial developed many sensational features and resuited in the conviction of the accused. Mrs. Maybrick was sentenced to be hanged, but the matter was laid before the home secretary who, after long deliberation, recommended the queen to commute her sen- ténce to imprisonment for life ——__ WHAT WE ARE SMOKING. Cigar Making in Cuba Cut Down—Key West Making More. Curtcaco, July 20.—Luis F. Delpino and his brother, J. I. Delpino, dark-skinned Cuban tobacco manufacturers from Key West, are registered at the Richelieu. They say that the McKinley tariff on imported cigars is throwing the manufacture of the best grades of cigars into Key West. “Last month,” said Luis, the elder brother, “there were 4,000,000 less cigars imported from Cuba to the United States than for the same period in 1890. The McKinley tax caused that, and the trade is being diverted to Key West. Cigar dealers are beginning to look to Key West for their goods instead of to Cuba. ‘the benefits derived from the increased tariff on the made are, however, to some extent less- ened by the increased tax on the tobacco itself. “Yon see, the Key West manufacturer buys all his tobaceo from Cuba, but the tax has also been ruised on it to $2.4 pound. That knocks out the smaller manufacturers altogether and hurts the big ones. Then, too, domestic goods sre cutting into our trade to a great extent. ‘The manufacturers are looking for some sort of & reciprocity treaty that will free the imported | x,. tobacco.” ee ‘The People’s Party of Washington State.
