THEY ARE AFTER HIM NOW
London Police Have a Clew to
 the Murder Fiend.
HE IS DESCRIBED BY WITNESS

Ahe Boobies Arc BuOyant in Consequenee
 and Confident of Ultimate success-The
 Witness Followed the Pair and Looked
 the Man Full in the Face.
 LONDON, Nov 1.-The hopes of the police Of catching the Whitechapel murderer. which had almost entirely died out were raised to the acme of buoyancy in consequence of the testimony at the Kelly inquest of George Hutchinson, groom, who had known the victim for some years, and who saw her with male companion shortly before ? o'clock on the morning of the murder Hutchinson testified that he saw we'll dressed man. with Jewish cast of countenance accost the woman on the street at the hour men tloned, on Friday morning, and the circum- stance of his acquaintance with her induced him to follow tho pair as they walked to- gether.
 He looked straight into the mans face as he turned to accompany the woman and fol- lowed them to Miller oourt, out of mere curiosity. He had no thought of the pre- Vlous murders and certainly no suspicion that the man contemplated violence, since his conspicuous manifestations of affection for his companion as they walked along formed large part of the incentive to keep them in sight. After the couple entered the house Hutchinson heard sounds of merriment ln the girls room and renained at the en- trance to the court for fully three-quarters or an hour. About 3 o'clock the sounds ceased and he walked into the court. but finding that the light in the room had been extinguished he went home.
 During the hour occupied in standing at the entrance to or promeuading the court he did not see a policeman. There is every reason to believe Hutchinson's statement and the police place great reliance upon his description of the man, believing that it will enable them to run him down. The witness who testified to having seen the woman enter the house with man with q blotched face was evidently mistaken as to the night, as his description of her companion is totally unlike that of Hutchinsons ill every par ticular. The bulk of the evidence taken fixes the timo of the murder at o'clock.

 INDIANAPOLIS, Nov. 14.-There are a0S ac- credited delegates to the Knights of Labor general assembly, which began its session here yesterday. After the assembly was called to ordep by Grand Master Workman Powderly, who did not arrive until morning.
 he committee on credentials reported six contests and protests concerning delegates. District Assembly 49, of New York, presents the most serious case, arising out of the con- tentlon between James E. Quinn and Philip J. McGraH, both of whom claim to be mas ter workman of the district. Quinn repre- sents the Home club faction and favors Pow derlys administration. The trouble between the factions began over heavy expenditures made years ago by the Quinn people in pur- chasing home, Tho dissension has cost the district many thousand members, but in set tllng the question as to delegates temporarily a union representative was allowed. A pro test was flied against the admission of George A. Schilling, of Chicago, who represents the Socialists He is denied admission to the hall until the question is settled
 A large number of ex-general officers at tending the convention are entitled to the floor of the assembly, but they were excluded pending the disposition of the credentials, In regard to this action T. B. Barry, who is leading the opposition to Powderly, said his case was one of appeal from the action of the executive board in expelling him after he had resigned. He proposes to carry the fight to the furthest limits Out of this may grow new organization, and ons that ac- count the Federation of Miners and Mine Laborers is watching the proceedings with great interSt
