“JACK THE RIPPER.”
TWENTY-FIRST VICTIM
(United Press Association —By Electric Telegraph—Copyright).
BERLIN, November 11. The discovery of the body of “Jack the Ripper’s ” latest victim (whi h was cabled on Sunday), was made possible by the receipt by the Dusseldorf police 'of two rough maps, on a scrap of brown packing paper. The body was found in the precise spot indicated. * ■ A second map received purported to show a spot on a lonely farm in the outskirts of the city where still another body would be found. There is considerable indignation
that the police have not yet noted on the information, because they are unable to ascertain whether the Municipal Authority will pay for the work of
digging. If “Jack the Ripper’s” gruesome boast proves true, it will bring the total of his murders to ten, with twenty-one victims all told. The police believe that the map is the work of the Ripper himself. Special detectives, some attired as women, are constantly in the streets. All the lonely lanes are being patrolled.
