Strength to tha Theory He Snjs It ffii
tlia Work of an Kxnert A Lettar From
Melbourne Seows that Deemlnf "Was
Skilled In tlin Csa or Medlclna.
London, April 8. The evidence point
ing to tbe Identity of Dooming with
Jack the Kipper is growing stronger
here. Deeming' appearance Is found to
tally almost exactly with tbe authentic
description of tbe Hipper recorded at
Scotland Yard.
This description was given by a man
who left the Duke Street Club House on
the night of' September 80, 1888, shortly
before the murder of Mrs. Eddowes, the
Kipper's sixth victim.
Shortly before reaching Mltro square
he noticed a mtu and woman in the
Mltro passaae. The woman was Mrs.
Eddowes.
The man was about 1)3 years ,
old, square shouldered and had a heavy .
moustache. It is certain, moreover,
that Deeming was in London at tuo
time.
The only statement to the contrary Is ,
made by Detective Brandt, who says
that to the best of his recollection,
Deeming was then in the Transvaal.
Tills statement, bowever, is discredited
by reports from the Cape.
Dr. Crelgbton Hutchinson, one of the
surgeons who conducted the post mor
tem examinations at Ralnhlll, in an In
terview, adds strength to the Jack th e
Ripper theory.
llo says that the work was that of an
expert; In only one case was tho stroke
which caused death more than sufllclont
for the purpose. It severed the vital or
gan and no more, and might have been
accomplished by a surgeon or a butcher
who knew his business well.
The lust letter sent by Deemlng's Mel
bourne victim to her mother Bhowed
that Deeming was skilled in tho use of
medicine, anil It is believed by many
that if occasion arose he would have
shown that he was equally skilled in tbe
use of surgical Instruments,
Every day evidence comes to light to
show the character of Deeming, and it
Is a matter of surprise, cunning though
he was, that ho should have pursued bis
careor of crime so long undetected.
A man who worked with Deeming ten
years ago stated that ho was then known
among his fellow workers as a vindictive
and treacherous character, nnd that he
went by the nickname of "The Demon."
At tho inquest Thursday the nume of
the wife-of the murderer, whose body, 1
together with those of her four children, 1
was found under tho floor ut Dlnham
Villa, nt Ralnhlll, near Liverpool, was
mentloued ut the hearing for the nrst
time, and was identified by witnesses by
means of a photograph.

Lawrence, Mass., April 8. Peter feno.
the wife murderer for whom tho pollct
have vainly searched since Tuesday night,
the eve of his crime, has been captured.
The arrest was m.ide under strange clr
cumstonces.
Euo, it appears, has been wanderlnq
aimlessly about town since the commls
sion of the murder, and he presented
himself at tbe police station as a vagrant,
giving the nam of Charles Little.
In appearance he has greatly changed
since last Tuesday, having grown ema
ciated, seedy and dusty, and it is nc
great wonder tnnt under these clrcum
stances the nollce In tho station tailed to
rccocnlze tbe man thtv were bo activelv
engaged in searching for.
Yesterday, however, when seen by the
light of day, ho pas recognized us he was
above to leave the station and locked up.
When the arrest was made he confessed
his identify, and said: "I killed tha
woman and I should do It again. I am
the man you want, lock me up."
A little later ho told u different story,
lie said that he met the woman Tuesday
evening and she attempted to shoot him
with a pistol she had. lie wrested the
weapon from her, and during the
struggle it exploded und she was shot.
He says that ho never married hi!
victim and that she knew he bad a wife
beforo they began living together.

different stories he told of the irirl's

Investigation has disclosed that tbe

ouly sick two days, and that us soon as
sho complained of boing ill, and before a
doctor was called. NVelnman said she
would die.
Mr. Weinman Bald that a post mortem
was held at Dalton, and that five doctors
who atteudod found the lining of her
stomach punctured with small holes, but
could not Hud the cause for her strange
and sudden death.
The reason assigned by the relatives
for the fonl play is that Mr. Weinman
desired to obtain possession of his step
daughter's money. She had been left a
good-sized bequest by her grandfather,
und us sho was to have been married
soon it is thought that Weinman resorted
to crime to prevent the money from es

WORK FOR CUSTOMS OFFICERS.

Goods from Sun llouilnvo nnd llaytt.
Washington, April 8. Assistant Sec
retary Spuuldlng has instructed Collec
tors of Customs to exercise greut caution
in identifying the products of San
Domingo and Hayti as under existing
conditions certain specified products of
San Domingo are exempt from duty on
importation into tho United States and
certain specified oroducts of Hayti are sub
ject to duty on importation into the
United States.
This order is mado necessary by the
fact that the United States has a recip
rocity treaty with San Domingo while
tho reciprocity treaty with Hayti has
been suspended by the recent proclama
tion of the President.
The difficulty of distinguishing the
products of the two countries will bo
apparent when it is stated that sugar
from San Domingo is not dutiable upon
importation intothe United States, while
sugar from Hayti is.

of Count Dotbo vo Eulonburg, and there
fore avoid the excitement incident upon
a needless debate on the proposed appro-
prtatlon.
It is an open secret that Count von
Caprivl is determined to retire. His
pride has been galled by the taunts of
tho Liberals In the RcichBtag since the
i appointment of Eulenburg, and he has
shown himself to be only half hearted
In his defence of the Emperor's course
In tho recent emergency. Just before
tho adjournment of the Reichstag he re
marked to lierr vou Levatzow;
"I bavo little heart for these sham
battles.
Tho Chancellor's 'journey to Carlsbad
and the announcement that he is suiter
lng from overwork are regarded as the
prelude to his retirement. Few minis
ters bavo left tho Prussian or Imperial
Cabinet in tho last Ave years without
similar advance notices.
Caprlvi's intervlewes with Kalnoky at
Carlsbad will probably be one of the last
i negotiations of his career as Chancellor.
These negotiations, It is said, will con
cern the recognition of Prince Ferdinand
of BulgaiU. earnestly desired by Aus

of Russia on lii.' border.
