THE HOUNDSDITCH MURDERS
RAID BY DETECTIVES. INCRIMINATING POSSESSIONS. By Cable—Press Association—Copyright. Received 28, 8.20 p.m. London, December 2S. Detectives raided Goldstein's lodgings at Stepney. Papers seized showed that he was a Russian, and his correct name was Stoloski Morountzeff. His rooms were a veritable arsenal. Nitroglycerine was found in considerable quantity, also picric and nitric acid, fulminate of mercury and other unidentified chemicals, many cartridges and a number of weapons, including a magazine pistol and a belt containing a hundred dumdum bullets. There were also valuable scientific explosives, and a quantity of Anarchist literature. Morountzeff had been living at Stepney nine months, and disappeared on the night of the murder. His landlord did not associate him with the crime till he saw the police bill, printed in Russian and Yiddish. Then he communicated with the police.
