“JACK THE RIPPER”
ANOTHER VICTIM,
[United Press Association—By Electric Telegraph.—Copyright.]
i BERLIN, Nov. 14
A conference of Police Chiefs r>t Dusseldorf has rejected the theory that “Jack the Ripper’’ was a woman.
Medical experts have confirmed the original belief that the peculiar atrociousness of the murders pointed to a man as the criminal. All Germany is now aroused. The Prussian Ministry of the In-
terior has offered a reward of eight * hundred sterling for ’’Jack the Ripper,” alive or dead. With characteristic effrontry “Jack
tho Ripper” has again sent a letter to the Dusseldorf newspapers as* follows: “Farewell Dusseldorf! You will never get me! But go on digging.”
, This letter was apparently posted on the Belgo-German frontier. A hat and a handbag were found by the diggers to-day. They have been identified as belonging to a servant girl, who has bean missing since November 18th. Another discovery to-day was a piece of paper pinned to a tree, near the digging, bearing a great letter “P,” through which runs a cross, with .an arrow. The paper is identical with that used in “Jack the Ripper’s” letters. .
